Any experience with G-Force helmets re: fit?

[jlee]

I have a Scorpion EXO400 in medium and it hurts my head after 30-40min or so. My Shoei RF1000 fits beautifully...but now I'm looking for an SA2010 rating. I'm considering a G-Force Pro Eliminator, but I'll have to order it online so I can't really test fit it beforehand. Does anyone know if it has a fit similar to either of the helmets I have already?

Doesn't look like that helmet has much in the way of ventilation. I went with the Shoei RF1100 as an upgrade to my RF1000 and I couldn't be happier. No way would I buy a helmet without trying it on first...unless someone sent me one for free of course.

+10000000 - always try helmets on before you buy.

revzilla.com has a good helmet fit guide, and you can even call them up to ask about what would be a good fit for you. they also have a no-hassle return policy.

@Jules - haha yep, free helmets are awesome.

It looks like Revzilla only sells motorcycle helmets - this is for auto racing, hence the need for an SA rating.

Yep...I'm racing with Mod Squad Racing in the 24 Hours of Lemons at Summit Point in June and I'm running out of time to order my safety stuff.

Auto racing helmets have fire retardant linings, motorcycle helmets do not.

I have that same model, albeit in Matte black. It fit exactly as the guides suggest. I forgot where i got mine from but that site included measurement to manufacturer size guides.

I haven't had issues with ventilation, i've used it with the shield both open and closed for HPDE as well as Karting.

You may or may not be interested, but I have a once-used (in like-new condition) HJC AR-10 II (it is SA2010) helmet that I used for one HPDE event. I don't know if I will be using it in the near future and I could use the cash. It is a size large.

I would be, but I have an HJC snowmobile helmet in Medium and it fits me very well - a large would be too big.

No worries.
