Thanks for the comments on the Daytona. I wear ear plugs anyway so wind noise isn't a big deal to me.
Do you know if the newer Bell 500 helmet are anything like the old ones? I tried one on years ago and it felt big (bobblehead look) and seamed more fitted for someone with a more round head shape.
I also looked at Urban Helmets USA who have a good variety of color schemes. They look nice but I can't seam to find many reviews on them.
Maybe I'll get over to Revzilla sometime soon. They're only a 20 minute drive or less from where I live I just avoid going over the bridge. That's where I got my Shoei and the staff was very helpful. In the meantime I'll trying to find a Cycle Gear or Indy close by who carries the Daytona so I can see how it fits.

My Harley dealer ordered one for me in matte black size M for less than Revzilla, though I drove there for the initial fitting and back again when it arrived, so gas probably made up the difference LOL.
I love it, very comfy, and easy to put glasses on while wearing it.

I just bought a Bell 500 and it is most assuredly for a round head. Also it doesn't work well at all with my perscription glasses.

I seam to be getting mixed opinions on certain helmets about fitment. I wasn't able to get anywhere this weekend so my helmet shopping will likely get put off til next weekend.
I did message a certain helmet company about there 3/4 helmets and was told that there 3/4 helmet fits all head profiles and that shape only really matters with full face helmets.... My limited experience with the 3/4's I've tried leads me to believe differently.
