Tall Guy Helmet
6 '4 and having a hard time finding the right helmet. I have a CF top, yes I know that glass top will buy an inch... Im looking into getting one of those. But wondering if there are certain helmets that are better than others? I just got my hands on a Simpson Viper Racing Helmet, its very bulky.

I'm 6'4" with 34" inseam. I adjust my seat similar to what Jim suggested. The back of my helmet hits the halo a little but I had enough headroom. I've used both Bell open faced and Racequip full helmets and was comfortable enough. My knees clear the dash barely but I can still hit the 3 pedals without issue. Laying seat back is the trick. My track instructor said I needed to be closer to the steering wheel . . . that's not happening, LOL.
BTW, I have the standard coupe top.
