Best endorsement I've heard so far since I presently own a could Daytona's. What sizes did you get so I can be sure of what size AK88 to order?

Any advice for me, I'm between sizes and I know recommendation is to go smaller. But I really like it to sit low and I also have a habit of (if low enough) put my ear-tips "inside". Anyone else know what I am talking about and have some knowledge on how I should go with size?

wondering how these Akoury Helmets fit BIGGG heads? I have a 24in head and a long face. (Think Jay Leno). Tempted to try this helmet. I tried the Vega XTS in an XL and that didnt even fit my head.
i emailed with Black Beard Gear and I am going to order XL and if it doesn't fit, they gave me the option of exchanging.

Just got my Akoury Terminator Helmet
Just got my Akoury Terminator helmet and took it for a spin. Love it. Fits snug, no Spaceballs Darth Vader look, and zero lift off at 65 mph into oncoming wind. I have had a lot of problems with lift off on other helmets... the only ones that stayed snug looked ridiculous.
I know the extra-huge size of the traditional DOT helmets is supposed to be for safety, but what about being a human Charlie Brown bobblehead when a semi-truck passes in oncoming traffic? That ain't safe.
The Akoury is lightweight and just feels like a part of your head. The only negative was two little rubber band things on the chinstrap near the ears. They were irritating to the ears when riding. I cut them off with scissors and the helmet was fine after that.
My head measured 23 1/4" inches with a tape. I ordered the large and it was a bit snug for me at first. I kneeled on the front and back inside of the helmet just a little bit to loosen it up and it now fits perfectly.
Oh, and the quick-release clasp is a cool once-and-done feature. No more fiddling with my chin strap while everyone else is taking off down the road.
I am happy with this helmet and will be buying one immediately for my girlfriend who also rides her own bike.
