justjoseph63[Staff] Posted August 24, 2021 Report Share Posted August 24, 2021 WOW, Colin! Brilliant job on dealing with those issues, brother. A couple of things jumped out at me, and while they may not be huge deals, they would improve your overall look. It appears that you may have used CA (super) glue and it has come undone. I would suggest trying E-6000 or something similar that has some flexibility. I noticed that your bucket seems to ride pretty high. Ideally, it should sit much lower, and I believe it is the interior padding in the top that is causing this. Removing that would not only bring it down, but will also vastly increase your visibility. (I had to do the same thing, and it works... trust me) and help hide the neck seal in the back I would keep the padding on the sides, though (blue arrows).

Goggytalks[TK] Posted August 24, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2021 Hi,Yes your right and the funny thing is I’ve put the helmet on before and it’s sat just right. I’m still trying to find a happy medium with the padding. You’ll laugh at this , I generally shave my head every two weeks and it fits beautifully and then when I have only a little bit of growth ( which at my age that’s to be thankful.Lol ) it gets a bit tight. I’ll carry on experimenting but I think in the photos for my EIB it looks about correct.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I think I’ve resolved the helmet sitting too high. Just shout if photos are required? Regards, Colin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goggytalks[TK] Posted August 26, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2021 Hi everyone,Back to the subject. Thanks for your patience.Here are some new photos showing changes based on advice concerning my back/ kidney section joint sticking out and my helmet sitting too high. I have taken out all the padding in the top of the helmet and my head literally touches the inside of the plastic , can’t go any further. Hope it’s ok?Hand guard glued back on.
