Bought my special order Davida JET Union Jack paint job from the Florida distributor and they got it to me in good time. I cannot wear the helmet-despite getting an XXL size the thing will almost not go on over my head and is impossible to wear without a great deal of pain from pressure on my jaw, ears and sides of my face, etc. OUCH! It is a beautiful helmet but is made for a rather thin (English?) face shape and it does not fit me. It is a JET model and is ECE-RF22-05 approved as well as British Motorcycle Sport approved and like I said , I cannot use it. It is a shame. It is an XXL and the head circumference is 64cm but the face and ears etc., are not open enough for me to wear it. It is leather lined and absolutely gorgeous. I do not know where they get their head shapes from but they are not from any people that I know. If you have a narrow jaw and your face is not too wide I will sell this beauty to you for $300-it is brand new and in original box etc. You can see it on the Davida Web site. Will throw in a pair of nice goggles too!! I really wanted this helmet to work. Be careful buying Davida-I have numerous Arai and a Schuberth helmet and they fit fine! (Arai fits great In XL size)
