You can also buy the 2 cheek pads and skull cap internals with a Shoei, it means you can adjust the fit with different size pads if needed, it needs to be in the same size shell though . I change the cheek pads at least once a year to stop the helmet moving as the pads soften up.

Good plan. My Shoei XR1000 fitted nicely around my head, but it did push back into my face at speed. I reckon that bigger cheek pads would've made it much better.

The Roof lid that I have now is a superb fit around my head, but the chinbar on that moves towards my nose as well now that it's got a few thousand miles on it - more hamster cheeks required.
