    Nice high quality helmet. They were a primary consideration for me but I couldn't get a good fit that worked with my CI's.

    Yeah, they are @3/8" high on the back/side of my head when I'm wearing them. I did find a Sedici modular that is close to comfortable, needs a slight mod, and fits correctly. I refuse to wear a helmet that doesn't fit snug. Can't do a regular full face because it knocks the CI's off putting it on.

    Well at least there are some options for you. My current helmet is a bit too snug. Not quite headache snug, but not comfortable.

    I bought a Seven-Zero-Seven helmet from Cycle Gear in late 2013 and at the time I felt it might be too snug, and I was told I could return it within 30 days if it turned out to be too tight. After using it for a week or so I got used to the fit and in hindsight I'm glad I stuck with it. It still fits the same and does not move around when I turn my head, an absolute must if you're riding hard and/or at speed.

    If interested I have a barely used Scorpion EXO 1100, Sixty Six graphics, in Large. I will never be able to use it again unless I want to ride completely deaf so it sits collecting dust. Yours for the shipping.
    Exactly like this one https://miamimotos.com/products/scor...xty-six-helmet

    That's one hell of an offer from someone you know took good care of it.
