I recently introduced my girlfriend's 9 year old to the back seat of the FJ ; she can't wait to get on it again.
.
Despite planning on just a quick 15 minute ride her first time on a bike, I dressed her up in protective gear and explained to her the importance of it it, even in today's hot weather. But I did have some concerns about the helmet.
She has a brand new Scorpion modular helmet - XS- I bought when I purchased mine in anticipation of a tiny pillion some day. Although it fits her quite snug with virtually no play, the thing looks like a basketball on a stick-figure. I can't help but think about all that extra inertia on her head. Does anyone know of safety issues regarding helmet size and there becoming a point where there is too much helmet for a small neck to support?
