The Shoei Neotec

If you’re looking for a bit more coverage than just your head, you may want to consider one of Shoei’s helmets. The Neotec offers that extra protection thanks to its visor that extends out and around your face. This increases coverage without compromising on quality or safety. It also comes in different sizes so you can be sure it will fit well. With an aerodynamic shape and sun-shield, plus a built-in retractable sun visor and airflow ports, it’s easy to see why someone with a big head would like to wear one of these helmets on their motorcycle or during other activities. It has all of what they want plus it won’t break your bank account because it comes at a great price!

The AGV Corsa R

If you have a large head, then a full-face helmet is going to be your best bet. The most spacious helmet on our list is, fittingly, also one of our favorites: The AGV Corsa R. It’s designed with an elongated shape that follows all contours of your head and prevents pressure from building up on any one area. It’s also made out of lightweight carbon fiber, which means it feels surprisingly light—even when you add in some extra padding. The ventilation system does an excellent job at preventing fogging, which is great for California commuters who need their glasses to see where they’re going. An included tinted visor provides protection without obscuring your vision.

This helmet is a highly versatile piece of gear. With its hybrid sizing, it’s able to comfortably fit riders with heads between 52 and 62 cm in circumference. It meets both DOT and Snell 2010 certifications, making it well-equipped to handle anything you throw at it (or ride through). The Bell MX-9 also has an advanced ventilation system that makes heat dissipation easy. It also comes with a visor, which protects your face from environmental hazards like wind, sun and rain. If you’re looking for comfort, versatility and protective features all in one place—the Bell MX-9 is worth a look.

The Schuberth C3

This is a German-engineered helmet that’s been around since 1988. It’s one of their most popular and is even used by law enforcement officers in many European countries because it has everything you need in a motorcycle helmet. The main reason people think it fits larger heads so well is because it uses ring fit, which allows you to adjust every angle of each ring. This means you don’t have to buy a bigger size just because your head is bigger, as long as you get rings that fit correctly. With Schuberth helmets, they recommend going one size up from your head measurement if you wear glasses or plan on using any face shield except clear.

The HJC IS Max

No products found.

If you’re an XXL or larger, a flip-up helmet is probably your best bet. The HJC IS Max is one of our favorites. Although it looks bulky, it has a universal fit that will accomodate most people comfortably (and even comes with different liner pads to adjust). This helmet doesn’t come cheap ($330), but in exchange you get Bluetooth integration and several levels of ventilation to manage temperatures inside. If you can spare $330, we highly recommend it as one of the best motorcycle helmets for big heads .
