A different kind of helmet thread
I searched on this but could not find anything. Everyone asks about the smallest profile helmet but my problem is actually finding the larger helmets. Unfortunately, I have a big head. It measures around a size 8 1/2 hat size or 25 1/2 inches.
I have a 4XL Daytona half helmet but it is not comfortable to wear. I tried a 3XL HJC but I looked way too much like Gazoo from the Jetsons. I really like the look of the Bell 500, but it does not appear they are made big enough.
Anyone know of any other companies that make helmets for us "melon heads"?

So far I seem to be the only person here that promotes the Fulmer AF-81 carbon 1/2 helmet at $89. It has a pretty low profile for a DOT helmet and the weight is on par with the new ultralight HD Hybrid at $200. Can't find any size references, they are a dealer only company so you would have to find a shop that carries them and just try one, the non-carbon AF-81s are really nice too. Very comfortable helmet. I hope you find something that works well for ya, a sucky helmet makes for some sucky ridin.
