Get the fit right
Find your size, then try it on
A helmet should fit snug and even. Measure your head, check the table, or try a Aeroblade-F on at a dealer near you.

| XS | 54–55 | 21.3–21.7 |
| S | 55–56 | 21.7–22.0 |
| M | 57–58 | 22.4–22.8 |

Fit tips
- Measure your head. Keep the tape level around the crown of your head.
- Head shape changes fit. Every Kabuto helmet sold in the U.S. is made for an intermediate oval head shape, and each model has its own fit and feel.
- Too loose? If the helmet rotates easily, or can be rolled off your head with the chin strap fastened, try a smaller size.
- Check pressure points. Even pressure all round is normal; pressure focused in one spot is not. Common hot spots: forehead, temples, jaw, back of head.
This chart recommends a size from head circumference. The right helmet also depends on head shape, helmet design, your motorcycle, riding style and any accessories fitted.
