Good place in Pattaya/Jomtien to buy motorbike helmets a cut or two above Tesco quality.  Not full face racing grade but hopefully DOT, SNELL or EU certified.

Thanks but so many variations in head shape.  Like shoes, just gotta try it on.

True if you don't know which make fits you. I know Shoei, Shark and Nolan fit me so I'd be happy to buy them online

My previous helmet was a Shoei Neotech I - L Size (professionally fit at the shop)

 

My next helmet was a Shoei Neotech II - L Size was too tight, I needed an XL size with a little additional cheek and forehead padding (professionally fit at the shop - Paddock). 

 

Two of the same brand of helmet, same model, different generation.

 

When going for a decent helmet and you want a proper snug fit I’d always suggest trying it on first and leave it on for a good chunk of time. 

 

That said: I’ve also got an AGV open face which was not properly fit and purchased from Panda Rider online (after measuring my own head etc) - its nowhere near the quality of fit of the Shoei, but then again, its an open face helmet !

 

 

Selling my old motorbike helmet if anyone's interested.

No time wasters please.
