Helmet woes

My helmet, Fulmer AFM Modus, is now 6 moths old and has 6000 miles of ride/wear time. Over the last couple weeks it has started to feel like someone is giving me double fisted noogies on top of my head. It feels like the padding has compressed and the helmet is fitting a little looser than before allowing it rub my head. I have bought a helmet liner and it helps a little.

So my question is, is this nomal and can I do anything about it? Or, should I start looking for a new helmet?

Maybe you should try one size smaller to begin with, and then with compression, will still be a good fit?????

Could not even get the medium lid over my head. The XL felt good and the L was tight. So I went with the L for the very reasons you all have mentioned. I just find it odd that it would fit fine for 5500 miles and then over a period of 2 weeks (500 miles) start causing problems.:confused:

I have emailed Fulmer concerning this and will see if and how they respond.

Thanks all for your comments. I'll let you know how it works out with Fulmer. For now, I'll just keep wearing my helmet liner and let my hair grow.
