Where to find custom motorcycle helmets in Osaka?

Hi everyone! will be visiting Osaka towards the last week of May. I'm looking at getting either a Shoei/Arai helmet when I'm there. So far I've heard great things of the shoei gallery and the nankai parts main store but had a few questions:

  • Are these generally the go to for custom fittings + helmets? Are there any else that you would recommend?
  • Will I need to make a reservation for Nankai to get the fitting service - I can't seem to find it on the website.
  • I read that Shoei gallery isn't tax free, could anyone advise if Nankai is?
  • will there be difficulty with language as I don't speak any Japanese unfortunately.
  • Any tips on how to pack them in suitcase/bring them out of country is welcome too!

Thanks for the help! Really appreciate it!
