My head measures about 23 1/4" inches, and according to Bell's chart I should be a large but definitely wasn't.

That last post got me concerned. Just ordered mine (bell 500), and I went with a small, which numerically, compares with a Fulmer small which is a 22". Anyone have a bell and a fulmer v2 to let me know how the 2 compare size wise?

That Bell helmet looks ok..but have you guys heard of Nolan Helmets ? Here in Europe/Sweden the Nolan Classic Jet helmet is the most worn by Harley riders,is compact and fits well,not a mushroom lol..has got the equivelant DOT and is also cheap....

Excuse me, but for many years I have not seen in the catalog of NOLAN classic JET helmet, without shield and without mechanisms to hold the shield !?! http://www.nolan.it/index.jsp?lng=en

Could you give me a link to the online shop in Europe where selling this model in the picture.

I ordered a LG as my head was a 23 which was between a the Med and Lg and It was a snug but does fit well on me. Just FYI
