So I have a little break in time with the new Shoei. Got a few hours in while watching TV and or messing on the computer. It is a very snug fit but getting better. After an hour the old head feels like it is in a vise. Just a few more hours and the lining should be just right.
Gotta hand it to the design process. The built in grooves for the arms of my glasses are really fine. As snug as the lining is, there is absolutely no pressure felt due to the arms of the glasses. Still a bit of a hassle putting on the glasses initially but that will take practice. Maybe I'm just a slow learner.
Flip up helmets are great. No need to take it off to smoke, have a drink or blow my nose. My last HJC was a flip up but not as well balanced or shaped for my head. Not knocking HJC, it is a great product line with some fine helmets but I never was satisfied with the fit.
