GoDucks Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 I have a big head, even by western standards. And, complicating things, its far more oblong than round. Most XL helmets press against my forehead and are unwearable. I have a helmet that fits, and I use that when I drive my daily rider (Yamaha X-Max). But I recently bought a classic 1972 BMW and I wanted a helmet that was a bit more style-appropriate. Does anyone know any helmet shops in Bangkok (preferrably) or Pattaya that would have good quality helmets in very large sizes of this style?

jackdd Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 I do probably have a similar head like you (same problems when trying helmets), but a HJC RPHA 90 fits my head, i would assume different models of the same brand use a similar shape, but maybe i'm wrong. HJC does also have two vintage open face helmets, you could give them a try, HJC helmets are widely available in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, Give us a clue and what was the "debt" worth and is the bike 100% legit? I have seen prices all over the place for 70's - early 80's airheads, and i would buy a legit one at the right price, especially a 6 series 750 or early 7 series 800/900.. Thanx.

GoDucks Posted January 10, 2019 Author Share Posted January 10, 2019 He owed me 400,000 and said this one was worth 600,000. its a bit more complicated than that but thats the summary. At first, I did not want the bike, since I have another daily driver, but its warmed on me. I had several Thai's who seemed very interested. I have decided to keep it.
