I was at the Honda motorcycle dealership near here recently and I was trying on helmets to get a feel for what size I should get... and it seemed like at the time that the large size was just about right in terms of comfort but also "snug"...
However....
I just purchased my Scorpion 400 series Octane helmet and I selected large size - are all large sizes the same across all helmet brands? Or do brand spankin new straight from the factory helmets require some breakin period to loosen up?
Because the large I got from them was a lot smaller than the large I tried on at the dealer....
I'm a bit worried because although I can deal with it (and tight is better than loose) it's a bit uncomfortable to wear.
And no, I don't have the bike yet. I have to go paycheck to paycheck buying the safety gear I can afford before I go get the actual bike, heh.
