True. But the head on an oval piston motor could also be referred to as oval. And yes, the Elf bikes were pure sex, I am still in love with any bike that has the hub-steering front end. I'll own a Tesi one day.

He got the right. I have the hardest time finding a helmet. Have tried every brand out there and still don't have one that truly fits as it should. The helmets I have now are kid sizes and they still are a ltl big. Looked into a custom but who wants to pay that kind of money.
Have the same problem with boots. They really don't make a good boot for people with ltl parts. Finally found a boys size 3 1/2 A* that fits and has enough protection to be considered worthy.

Would that little pump system they have in the Scorpion EXO1000 helmets help with fit for odd head shapes, or is it just a gimmick?

Never heard of it??? You got a link and I'll check it out. I'd try about anything to make one fit as it is now I usually wear some kind of ltl hat to help snug it up.

Scoripion EXO 1000 from their website. Looks like it's only adjustable cheek pads. I thought it was a little more in depth than that.

Yup! I have Very tiny feet. Look even funnier because I'm almost 5' 8" tall.

Focus people. It's about my damn oblong noggin!

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll give 'em a shot. As long as it doesn't have super-fragile plastic bits that break all the damn time (and it fits), I should be good to go.
