Both mannequin heads are the same size & they are both wearing a 'Large' size helmet.
The mannequin on the left is wearing a Daytona Helmet. The one on the right a standard ECE approved helmet.
Why Are Daytona Helmets SO Slim?
Daytona Helmets are a lot slimmer because most EU certified helmets us a one size fits all shell, and then increase the padding on the inside of the helmet as the head size decreases.
Daytona, on the other hand, manufacture their helmets in 3 different shell sizes which completely eliminates unnecessary levels of padding and also give the helmet a much more proportionate fit whilst maintaining high level protection & comfort.
How to Make Sure You Buy The Right Size Helmet...
Just because your current helmet is a large, don't naturally assume you'll need a large in this style.
It is important that you order the correct size by measuring your head as described below...
-
Measure around head just above the ears (1inch above your eyebrows).
-
Use a cloth tape to take your measurement (or use a piece of string & then measure that)
It is recommended that you get someone to help you measure in order to get accurate measurement.

Excellent low profile helmet. Would definitely recommend. Super quick delivery and great communication. Thanks
I read the previous reviews and found them very helpful especially regarding size. My Bell helmet is a medium, this Daytona is a large and fits perfectly. Overall I am impressed with the product, the prompt delivery and the communication from Fat Skeleton. I will use this company again no doubt!
Having had a relatively cheap open-face which looked and felt like a large bowling ball on my head, I rarely used it. I found that it got pushed backwards by the wind at anything over about 60mph.
I've been looking for something that was low-profile and good quality. This Daytona is perfect.
The wind goes round it, rather than pushing it backwards.. and it deffo looks the part on my cruiser.
Thankyou.
Had one for years and went noisy so bought a new one and very happy - good fit and top quality. Since buying my mates have purchased also !

I just received this helmet after returning a Bell Custom 500 to another store because it made my head look huge! First thing I’d say about the Daytona is it looks great on,much lower profile than the Bell,looks the biz. The quality however doesn’t compare to the Bell, the bell being fibreglass the Daytona being Polycarbonate (you and see a faint seam in the shell). The Daytona is much more comfortable but this is achieved by the foamier interior, I’d say the Bell will offer far greater protection as the hard foam insert is much thicker. Overall the Bell has far superior build quality and is 100% road legal in the U.K. My advice would be to try the Bell first, if you can put up with the look on your head it’s the better choice. Me, I will keep the Daytona, it just looks better!
