I wear an HJC.   It was the best fit of all the ones I tried.  
I have several restored bikes along with a 2006 Goldwing with a sidecar. My wife has a 2019 Suzuki DR 650 for on and off road.

Had a new one in 93. Almost got creamed by a Caddy coming out of work parking area. Couldn't see out the side of the helmet. I heard the tires and stopped in time. I don't like full face helmets. The one I have now gives me a full view and it's modular meaning I can add parts to cover my chin and under the chin piece in really cold weather.

HJC fit intermediate oval heads best, so I guess that’s what my head is.

Even more off topic but here’s the best explanation I ever saw on carburetors.

Ryan is at it again, this time talking about weight per horsepower.  The video is a bit strange but the concept is interesting.  Get faster by eliminating weight.

I like Kevin Cameron's low cost method for making your bike faster. It disappoints many, tho.

Another of Ryan's videos.  This one is about the cost of tires.
