tonyla Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 Ok I need the help of the experts--Thats you guys and gals! I have a HJC symax flip up and like it size extra large. I am doing much more riding this year and I have been looing to "upgrade" my head protection. I was told to buy a Nolan they dont fit and after I went to the third shop to try on different helmets I was told that Nolan and HJC are the same quality. The latest shop said arai or shoei . I don't thing Arai makes aflip up and the Shoei makes the syncrotec. The Shoei is a little high for my budget plus I haven't found a store that has the flip in stock to try on. so there you have it. Help please? Tony Link to comment
Woodie Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 I've got a brandy new (<3 months) Schuberth C2, you wanna see? I found it near impossible finding dealers who actually had helmets in stock to try on. (I'm home, not riding this afternoon!) Link to comment
tonyla Posted April 23, 2006 Author Share Posted April 23, 2006 Hi woodie Where did you find it. I am home waiting for my daughter to leave for school. Link to comment
Woodie Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 Tried it on while on vacation in San Diego. Then ordered it online. Link to comment
Little_Brit Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 Tony, After months of contempation I ordered my Schuberth C2 yesterday! I should have it for next weekend. When I've tried it out for real I'll let you know what I think of it. I love everything about it walking around the shop but the proof of the pudding is in the eating.

tonyla Posted April 23, 2006 Author Share Posted April 23, 2006 Wodie what size did you get. My head size is 7 3/8 which is about 59.7 centimetes. Tony Link to comment
Woodie Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 I got a 59--L--7+3/8. Very snug at first, now starting to break in a bit. The chin-bar is very close...I can touch it if I jut my chin out. It's a bit noisy, but I've found that's mostly because of the turbulence coming off the RT windshield (I have a tall). Are you working tomorrow? (I may be able to swing in after lunch for a quick visit on my way home) Link to comment
