I used to wear an HJC Ac10 helmet.  But crashed last season and needed a new one.  Come to find only AC11 is now made which does not fit as nece as the FG12.  So I bought an FG12.  Then I crashed, now I need a new helmet AGAIN, and the FG12 is no longer in production.  The CL14 fits ok but not like the FG12.  Any Ideas on HJC helmets and which one will fit like the FG12?????

Any help is appreciated
Thanks

Try something better.  Suomy Gunwind.  Nicest helmet I've ever worn or destroyed, and they've saved my life a few times for sure.  The price is above HJC, but still a bit below Shoei and Arai.  The helmet is so light that you can't believe it would even work in a crash, but it really does it's job.  Suomy helmets are made to the British standard, which is higher than DOT or Snell, and are batch tested.  Helmets from each batch are destructively tested, and if any helmet fails, the whole batch is scrapped.  Real quality stuff.  You only have one head!  https://www.gearboxinternational.com/
I am a Suomy sponsored rider, so tell them "K3" Chris Onwiler sent you.
The frame was snapped, the #3 rod was dangling from a hole in the cases, and what was left had been consumed by fire.  I said, "Hey, we've got all night!"

i used to run ARAI .,

but now use the HJC CL-12 and now the CL-14 ., they even have shields with tearoffs., they are lighter than the ARAI ., and fit my head better., i have gone through 2 HJC's and love them......

and yes you only have 1 head. and the others cost more., but do not really have any better protection and all have the same rating., and even that is only rated at 35mph for all those fancy tests.....
