I have been shopping for a new helmet online and had settled on the Icon Airmada due to it being designed for the "long oval" head shape. Aside from Arai and maybe Shoei, I haven't seen another helmet manufacturer that makes models specifically for head shape. (I haven't done an exhaustive search). Online the Airmada run from $180 for a solid color to another hundred give or take for some cool designs...so not so cool ones end up on clearance.
Saturday I stopped by PCP Motorsports in Elk Grove CA, south end of the Sacramento metropolitan area, to spend a few minutes looking a some beautiful new bikes and they had some Icon Airmada's available so I tried a couple on for size. A beautiful little blond girl offered me 10% off their $190 price for a flat black one to help me decide. I asked if she would like me to buy some gloves too. Not really, but you know, I bought it. What a comfortable helmet. The vents work great. When I first took off, I had not fully secured the shield and the extra airflow made the top of my head COLD. The interior is as comfy as a 1978 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz with no spaces for wiggle for my "long oval" head.
Hopefully it will never get a scratch!
