Shoei Accolade Z-8 Helmet Unbox and Review

Needed a new full face helmet for a while and this is the one I bought.

The Z series is based on the concept of being compact and lightweight.
The Z-8 is newly born with a more sporty evolved design and revamped functionality that realizes comfortable riding.
A new shield system that improves visibility and operability, and a highly efficient ventilation system that effectively introduces and exhausts running wind, we pursued even more "comfortable performance".
The compactness, lightness, and comfortable performance that the Z series boasts create comfortable sports riding.

is there any difference in fit between this and nxr2

It is the same helmet. Z-8 is the name of it for the Japanese market.

Hi, what's your head size? Mine is 58cm and I'm thinking of buying M size.

[@birdy3934]

My head is 58 also. The size is good if your ok with tight! I went for this size I guess the helmet is more effective against impact if tight but I think L would be wearable

Thank you for the reply. I tried Shoei M and even L was too tight. I had hot spots. Weird head shape I guess. I ended up buying L size AGV K6S and it fits perfectly.
