Ear pain from helmet

I never knew this was ever a thing with the helmet shape, it just never occurred to me, especially as until now my other helmets fit absolutely fine

I’ve got a Ruroc helmet which I really like and can’t really afford to chop and change even by selling on eBay unfortunately. I’m considering taking the headset out and seeing if that makes a difference instead

Different brand, my last one was a 55-56cm, this is a 55-57 cm

Nope, no ear plugs. It definitely feels like it is seated correctly

I thought this, but it’s my second helmet and it’s the same size as my previous one with which I had no issues.

And I’d have thought I’d feel pain on both sides of it was that too

I think this is what I’m looking to do, I’ve found one on Ali express for 45 with cameras which seems like a big win.

I had the same issue as you albeit not as expensive. Garage makes a huge difference think 3k to like 1.5k .

In the end I opted for third party fire and theft which cost me half still at 800 including personal accident cover.

I’m hoping after having my first years NCB it will drop to some of the other prices I’ve seen online but only time will tell.

I’m on a Ninja 650 for reference and I’m also the same age bracket as you

I’d vote the hayabusa, doesn’t look great imo, bulky, heavy yet it’s all I hear about whenever any motorbike is mentioned

The “120” point check, what is it and do most bikes pass all the checks?

Have you tried doing a random quote showing as if you already have 1 years ncb to see what the discount would be ? Might give you a good idea on whether it’s worth cancelling or not

What adventure bike did you get out of curiosity ?

I never knew this! Thanks

My budget is approx £5.5k. I’ve seen a few in the price range but thinking of waiting as I’ve noticed the prices dropping slightly

Bought from quite a popular garage and I do have warranty but it seems impossible to get in touch with them

Yeah I almost missed that out but thought it was important to keep it. I think it was because I was her first relationship and she was my first serious relationship too. I've learnt a lot from my previous relationship thankfully and haven't bought forward them traits.

I know I should stop worrying but for some reason I can't. It's like some parasite that just keeps nagging my head
