RE: HOW SHOULD A HELMET FIT?
very nice... good choice on the helmet... after a while when your ready to get into a new bike and a new helmet you might want to think about "shoe", "arai", "agv". there all great helmets much light then the hjc. and just picking them up, you could feel the differance.... and it makes a differance when your riding for a long period of time.... looking good on the gear.... all thats left is the bike.... soon enough right?

Is that an HJC CS-12???? That looks exactly like the one that I wanted, but couldn't get cause they couldn't get one small enough (I had a tight deadline as I needed the helmet for my bike course and they couldn't get it in until two weeks after!)
I love the helmet - very nice choice! Oh and nice jacket (got all excited about the helmet and forgot about the jacket
)

i got the helmet from ridegear.com it was in the closeout deals. I think it $70 or $80 w/ no shipping fees. I thought it was a small, but I just Looked inside and it says XS. Shrug. From the link you gave me, its a good fit, and its not too tight. I must just have an XS mellon.

All helmets are sized slightly differently. In the HJC I needed the XS, there was another brand that I tried and needed a medium and the one I got (Shark S500 Air) I needed a small. That's why I think it is hard to buy a helmet online - you just never know what size you'll need!
Sounds like you lucked out and got a wicked deal (the HJC that I tried to get was $120 canadian)

Looks like you got this one covered. Mad Kaw is right with the lids he told you about. But there pricy too. I ride with a KBC which is a really good helmet if you ask me.

Excellent looking lid man!!!! I agree with all the comments and BB the link was a huge help. I saved it for my own future references. That's why I love this group!!! So helpful! Good luck on the gear, but the helmet looks perfect!!!
