2. PROPER FIT

Wearing the wrong helmet size can increase the risk of serious injury or
death in an accident. A helmet that is too large for your head may be
dislodged or knocked off in an accident.
To select the right helmet size for your head, follow the steps:
1. TRY ON THE HELMET
Grasp both chin straps to pull the helmet completely onto your head,
ensuring that the top of your head is in contact with the top of the helmet
interior. Try the helmet with all the protection you plan to use (balaclava,
neck tube, etc.)
2. CHECK FOR A PROPER FIT
To make sure that your helmet is the right size, check that:
• The helmet inner lining fits snugly around your head.
• The top pad presses firmly on your head.
• The cheek pads contact your cheeks.
• There is no space around your brow under the inner lining. Test this by
trying to insert your fingers. If the helmet does not fit snugly, try on a
smaller size.
This step might take several trials before finding the perfect adjustment.
3. CHECK YOUR FIELD OF VISION
Some helmets may obstruct or block your vision when looking left, right,
up, or down.
Always make sure you can see well enough to safely operate your
vehicle.
