Best Motorcycle Helmets – Which One Should You Purchase?
Deciding which helmet is the best helmet for you can be a tough decision especially when you realize how many different variations there are of the motorcycle helmet. In order to determine which is the best motorcycle helmet for you, you really have to decide which type will best fit your personality, safety needs, as well as your budget.
A motorcyclist’s personality is one of the more important factors considered when deciding which is the best motorcycle helmet because of the weight that the helmet has on how that personality is portrayed. For example, a half helmet with a custom flame paint job is going to give the appearance of a hard nosed, bad to the bone biker, than a plain black full face motorcycle helmet, which may portray the personality of a less eccentric, conservative rider with less of a wild side.
If safety is your main concern, then you’ll be more likely to select a helmet which has been proven to be more safe and provide a higher level of protection than one that may not be as safe. This may be the case when someone is trying to decide between a full face helmet and a half helmet as they are more likely to pick the full face helmet because of the increased amount of protection that the full face helmet can provide.
Finally, a rider’s budget will also play a major role in deciding which helmet is the best motorcycle helmet for the rider for the fact that a more expensive helmet can only be conceivable if the rider has the budget that will allow him or her to purchase that helmet. High quality helmets that offer a lot of protection and comfort do not have to be outrageously expensive, and can be easily obtained here at Motor Medley.
There are a number of different types of motorcycle helmets that a rider can choose from and below are a few different categories that really need to be understood in order to decide which is the best motorcycle helmet for you.
Half Helmets
Half helmets are very popular for those that wish to have a little more freedom when wearing a motorcycle helmet because they provide for more ventilation and are not, some say, as constraining because there is not a complete shell encompassing the entire rider’s head. The half helmet does not, however, provide the level of protection that a full face helmet provides because of the fact that this is less support provide to the rider’s head. Another drawback to half helmets, aside from the fact that they offer less protection than full face helmets, is that they do not have face masks, which means the rider is responsible for remembering to bring along their own eye protection. Some half helmets do come with removable eye shields which provide protection to the rider’s eyes. Half helmets are more advantageous in warm riding conditions because of the increased level of ventilation, which helps the rider keep cool.
Full Face Helmets
Full face helmets are often times more popular for a number of reasons including the fact that they provide a higher level of safety and comfort to riders who are looking for those traits. This is made possible because of the shell that completely covers the rider’s head. The helmet shell wraps completely around the front of the face which provides protection to the entire head, not just the sides, top, and back of the head. The full face helmet is more advantageous in cooler riding conditions because they protect the rider from cold winds and temperatures. They also help protect the rider’s face from flying dirt and debris. One increasing popular type of full face helmet is the modular which combines the freedom of a half helmet or 3/4 helmet with the protection of a full face in one very convenient helmet. The flip up helmet is made of a complete shell which can be flipped up by simply pressing a button. If you’re looking for maximum protection and comfort, then the full face helmet is the best motorcycle helmet for you.
Novelty Helmets
Novelty helmets are perhaps one of the more increasingly popular types of helmets because of the fact that they are extremely light weight and provide the maximum amount of freedom to the rider. The big drawback to novelty helmets is the fact that they do not offer the protection that the half and full face motorcycle helmet types provide. The reason this is so is because novelty helmets are made with a much thinner liner when compared to the other helmet types which allows them to be lighter than the others. Novelty helmets are very similar to half helmets with respect to the way they look on the rider, but are not as bulky because of the fact that they are less material. If you’re looking for a helmet that is extremely lightweight and provides maximum freedom, then the novelty motorcycle helmet is the best motorcycle helmet for you.
