tncaveman Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 Hello, I am looking to get a scout bucket. I have a larger head and am worried that the SC may be to small. I am fine with doing most the work on my own but not sure what kit is crap and which isn't on etsy. Do the altmanns come 100%? Can anyone point me in the right direction? Again not looking for a finished bucket but something I can build myself. Thanks in advance for your response
kayelbe Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 Altmann's come assembled. It's what I have. I don't have experience with any other helmet, so I can't speak to those.
BikerScout007 Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 KS makes a larger bucket that you can build yourself. All the little add ons (snout, decals, bolts) need to be swapped out for more accurate ones, but it's a good bucket for trooping 1
TINMAN Posted April 27, 2017 Posted April 27, 2017 I agree with Mickey, I have both KS and Altmanns because I have a bigger melon. Great buckets for larger head people.
M.J Posted April 27, 2017 Posted April 27, 2017 Case I agree with the guys, I have a SC and KS, SC will be small for you. KS is larger in sorts (Longer) though I can wear my glasses with the SC not the KS go figure? I do know Altman isn't small. You will need to measure the length as well as the width, having a larger head your chin will pop out of the SC, check out the sizing of the Altman's.
tncaveman Posted April 27, 2017 Author Posted April 27, 2017 Thanks everyone. I have hit up KS and I believe I am going to go that route. I really do appreciate the help because I almost went with the SC and would have been bummed if I couldn't get it to fit.
mattcamaro Posted April 27, 2017 Posted April 27, 2017 I have a buddy that has a SC bucket and he is a bigger guy, it tight but fits. I have a KS, I had issues putting it together, this was a couple years ago. I have had a CB bucket and now I wear an Altmanns, the KS looks just like Atmanns. I think Spike has been updating his to have correct hinge bolts now.
BikerScout007 Posted April 27, 2017 Posted April 27, 2017 The SC will fit most people. Fit isn't really the issue. The issue is will it look right on you? The Scout helmet is a big helmet relative to the wearer's body and the SC makes you look like you have a shrunken head if you aren't small enough Sent from my LG-H830 using Tapatalk 1
