Rider Toothpick

What street helmets have a smaller shell size so a skinny rider doesn’t look dis- proportional when riding?
I’m 6’0″ and 130. Just purchased an 04 CBR 600F4i and realized the helmet I had made me look like a toothpick with a watermelon on the end. I don’t want to compromise safety necessarily, but I want something that has a smaller shell size. Also how much would a textile riding jacket effect the look of a helmet on me? Thanks
Usually the higher priced helmets have different sized shells. (shoei and arai both do). I have an AGV and I was told that they have 2 different sized shells. I wouldnt worry too much about it though. The bigger the shell, the bigger the space cushion is around your head in the event of a crash. Any padded textile or leather riding jacket would make the helmet look better on you. I wouldnt recommend what the guy above said though. Get a jacket that fits correctly. A loose jacket is dangerous because if you go down (and chances are, at some point you will) the loose fabric/leather could get snagged on something and injure you. That’s why racing leathers are so form fitting.. they’re designed so you slide across the pavement, not get tossed around like a rag doll.
