Choose the safest motorcycle helmet for yourself

It is extremely necessary to choose the safest motorcycle helmet for yourself. Having a bike is exciting but what makes it more thrilling is wearing the perfect Riding gear. With motorcycling, comes the acronym, ATGATT (All The Gear All The Time). Taking this acronym into consideration what hit our mind is the safest motorcycle gear i.e Helmet for a bike

A helmet is considered the safest riding gear as in 2015 the usage of motorbike helmets saved a number of lives around 1,772 lives. Whether the law states it or not you always have to ride your motorcycle with a helmet on. Therefore there are many things to look for when choosing a helmet for yourself so read the below-gathered research on helmets.

There are three types of helmets ¾, 2/4, and full-face helmets. In regard to safety, the full-face helmet is the safest selection of all three. As it has a linear inside the helmet which makes it comfy for your upper head to wear also full-face helmets have coverage of your full head, neck, and chin. Full face helmet also protects you from the environment whether it be bleak weather or the sound buzz flea makes, also it is strapped up by the chin which makes your chin safer as it is a certitude “Motorcyclists have more chin injuries”.

But after you chose the helmet most important is does it gives you a good fit.

Motorcycle helmet fit

Each helmet design is different as it varies with the manufacturer and the biker’s head. One brand may be a better fit for a round head, while others may fit better for an oval shape. Fit is necessary for getting the best helmet for you. What is the most important feature to consider in a helmet is an EPS liner to protect the full jaws and chin, many helmets possess the comfort liner which is mistakenly taken by riders as protective gear as it also provides some padding but new helmet technology possesses a new inner liner to soak up the shock made up of EPS (expanded polystyrene) foam.

But before finalizing the helmet make sure you have tried it on your head to check the fit. To check the fit these points should be kept in mind:

  1. Check the chin strap and make sure only two fingers fit the strap between your head and chin.
  2. No gaps from above and sides of the head also it should not be painfully tight.
  3. If still the helmet slips or is way too loose and is rotating it is not a good fit.
  4. To test the chin strap, look down toward your chest, and see if the back of the helmet can be pushed upward. 

At the end of the day, all helmets are not designed equal. The right helmet will protect you at the time of a mishap or an accident. Good luck finding the right one for yourself Riders!!
