I bought mine online (in fact, from an eBay store!) after trying a few on whilst at a bike show without my wallet (dumbass!
)
But I know my head is a perfect fit for a Shoei size M helmet, and having tried on at the show the XR-1000 I ended up getting from eBay, I did at least know the fit wasn't going to be an issue.
People's experiences may vary of course, but my lid turned up in perfect condition and well packed, and at £209 delivered, was about £100 cheaper than a shop price. So since I knew it was going to fit perfectly, the saving was well worth it.
