    I went to large store and wore a helmet for a hour to check the fit then purchased it else where for a better price. I like
    the Nolan n-104 only use the sun visor when I'm not wearing my sun glasses. Polerized sun glasses don't mix with visors

    Is that Bell Mag-9 an open face helmet? Looks like just the shield comes down over the face. I tried to buy a Bell half helmet once and even the largest size they make was not large enough. Do Bell sizes run small? Only Cycle Gear and the local Honda shop have any helmets of any quantity on the shelves around here. If they had one I liked and got to fit test I would sure thank them by purchasing from them if within reason. Cycle Gear has pretty good prices anyway and got my last lid from them.

    Bell Helmets do run small in size.

    Yes it is maybe this pic might help a bit. I keep the shield in my side bag but when I use it it covers the whole front and works great in the rain.


    I have a large helmet and it fits my head as my brother says my "loaf of bread head"

    Last two helmets are Shoei Quest.., quality, affordable, comfortable. It’s a pretty solid helmet for the price.
    They have a flat grey that matches the F6b pretty good. I’ve got multiple tinted and mirrored shields, easily changed out.
    The mirrored shields are kind of pricey though.
