Sizing & Fit

Motorcycle helmets come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, just like our heads. Sizing is not simply down to taking a measurement and matching it to a helmet. There are so many other things to consider such as head shape, will it fit your head shape? Motorcycle helmets usually fit specific head shapes. Some fit rounder heads better, some fit oval heads better. It is a little bit of trial and error unless you are replacing a helmet like for like. There are 3 major types of motorcycle helmets:

1. Full Face Motorcycle Helmets - Probably the most popular style of helmet with a solid chin bar for safety. This is the type of helmet is the #1 choice of motorcycle racers around the world.

2. Flip Front Motorcycle Helmets - This style of helmet really suits city riding/touring. It is the preferred helmet choice for the UK Police Forces because it gives them the ability to simply push a button and lift the front section (the chin bar) of the helmet up which reveals the face. Most modern flip front helmets are legal to use in the open and closed position. If the motorcycle helmet is homologated for P/J then you can use it open or closed.

3. Open Face Motorcycle Helmets - Usually the favoured helmet for cruiser riders, city and scooter riders (not forgetting retro classics). These helmets have no chin bar and leave the face uncovered. Some have a visor for weather protection and some are for use with goggles or even nothing at all.

Then, there are materials, thermoplastic (under many other names too), fibreglass, tri-composites and carbons. Materials play a huge role in the weight of the helmet and also in the way a helmet reacts to impacts. After that, you have to decide if an internal sun visor is the right thing for you or maybe even a Bluetooth intercom system.

There are common misconceptions regarding certain aspects such as the ACU sticker - This is NOT a legal requirement. It simply means you can go on a race track with the helmet. The helmet approval markings can be found stitched to the chinstrap and, for us here in the UK, begin with an E followed by a number. This number represents the code for the country in which the motorcycle helmet was tested.
