What ever you do try one on before you buy the helmet! They all fit different from different manufacturers. I have put $500 helmets on my head and thought that they fit like crap where as a $150 helmet felt perfect and should cost $1000. It really is in what feels good to you.

yeah i'm not to worried about the fit either. I'm sure it will be fine for my mellon but if not i'm in the same boat. I could prob sell it for more than i got it for. Either way i think we'll both be fine. I've read nothing but good reviews about the way these helmets fit compared to the others that i was looking at. Should be a go :yeehaw:

Whooo! Saved myself like 400 bucks (I was looking at getting a Troy Lee Designs SE) I got a M2R Revelation X off the famous auction site just now for 120 bucks canadian including shipping!
I could have held off and just bid on it but at that price I would rather pay 10 bucks and make sure I got it for sure instead of getting outbid at the last minute by someone else.

My helmet arrived today and i must say i am very very pleased with it. It is very comfy and for the price i paid i would have had it no other way.

Consider

Haven't tried those, but I have tried HJC, FLY & THOR. All in the 100 - 140 price range. I really liked the HJC. Light and comfortable with a bit more padding for the top of your head. Plus the graphics were good.

I got mine via E***y from seller rbscycle I am expecting it to be in by next week.
I just picked up another lastnight from seller . Same helmet kinda got pressured into it by my parents who really thought I should have a spare. I dont want to be a rockstar with ten ton of fancy gear but I can see the point that I am going to want a helmet now if for example I wreck it during the race and am still able to ride the next moto.

I got my 2nd M2R Revelation X for $77 canadian including shipping. It would have been over $300 canadian retail with shipping.

You should have a tracking number with your shipping.
My mom has mine somewheres. (No credit Card for me cause Im still a punk kid so I had to give her the cash and then she did it up in paypal)
Shes sick or I would go bug her to look up the tracking number and find out where the helmets are currently.

mine has a little bit of room to work with also with the fit but not much, i'll just wear a beenie or something and that will tighten it up some

Well i got my 2nd M2r helmet today-got a even better deal on shipping on this one :laugh: the only downside is the cheek pads have a terrible design thats really hurts your ears as you take the helmet off, the way they have doen it is they have the hook part of the velcro showing, on my axo they use the loop side and its smoother, so i just folded back the sharp edge and superglued it in place-on modified M2R and im happy :eek:

still not sure on the sizing-what do you think? :rotfl:
