Is it ok if your chin is touching the chinguard? Not like pressing against it, just touching. Damn this giant melon.

A fitment (noun) is a part of an assembly, versus fit or fitting which is the transitive verb you mean.

I dont expect forum posts to be essays with spell check, but really! Why do I care? Why dont you?!
As lame as 'forks' and 'colourways' are, this one takes the cake. Latitude given for those 'from across the pond' but not much.

And - this is my observation - I think your chin being too close, much less touching, the chinguard is an invitation to a dislocated jaw or worse.
Saw your other thread about having a huge melon. So what helmet are you wearing? Did you take a crash to the face and dislocate your jaw? Seems like it wouldn't make too much difference -- the chinguard flexes and the helmet can move around on your head.
I use an HJC CLX5 XXXL - very big. If your face is close to the chinbar, when you crash, you can be compressed so the chin is pressing against the bar, and should it move as you described, can pull your chin out of the socket (or force it in/jam.) I did jam up my jaw once using an ill fitting helmet, but no dislocation. It was definitely unpleasant!
Think of shoes that are too small, and you poor toes'es!
