Motorcycle helmets | Free next day UK delivery

Motorcycle helmets are the single most important item of kit for a biker. There is quite an array of types of motorcycle helmets from a dizzying number of manufacturers. You can have an open-face motorcycle helmet, a full-face motorcycle helmet, a flip-up helmet (sometimes called a flip-lid or flip-front or even a modular motorcycle helmet). Then you might have an adventure motorcycle helmet (which may or may not be an off-road helmet). Some helmets are described as touring helmets but when you tour it might be important to have a bluetooth motorcycle helmet so you can listen to music, hear your satnav or talk to your travelling companions. Deciding which helmet is best for you is not easy. We can help.

How long do motorcycle helmets last / do motorcycle helmets expire?

All helmets have a manufacturing date but a motorcycle helmet doesn’t expire. Having said that, we are often asked how long a helmet will last. That depends on a few things but the received wisdom is around five years and most decent helmets have a warranty period of 5 years. 

Are motorcycle helmet unisex?

Motorcycle helmets are unisex. In general, women have smaller heads and therefore ladies motorcycle helmets are normally the smaller sizes, but it is down to the fit and shape of the helmet. For some petite women, the weight of the helmet may be a consideration.  

Can I ride a motorcycle without a helmet?

In the UK helmets are required for motorcycles. They must be approved to an EC standard the latest of which is EC 22-06. DOT helmets are not legal in the UK.

Are white motorcycle helmets cooler and safer?

White motorcycle helmets reflect more light making them slightly cooler in summer, and according to some research, may increase visibility on the road making them safer.  Sometimes customers come in wanting a particular graphic motorcycle helmet rather than a plain one. We won’t generally entertain that unless we’re confident the helmet model fits your head! This is the key safety factor. There is also plenty of discussion about whether a white motorcycle helmet is safer, or cooler. After all the discussion we still find that black motorcycle helmets sell the best

Arai Tour-X5 helmet in Diamond black

ALC: Better than X-4

Replaced an X-4 and was immediately impressed with the fit, vision and comfort. On the road, Im not getting the buffeting from the visor but couldnt honestly say it was any quieter. Airflow is good but visor does not seem to lock in up position like the old one did. On the whole, excellent.

Scorpion ADF 9000 helmet in pearl white

Andy Fleming: Very pleased

I like it. Seems well made and all works well. Is ideal for my purpose, rattling around the Yorkshire Dales by CRF300 on road and off. I appreciate the tinted drop down eye shield, the peak and the wide view aperture. It appears ideal for my level and usage

Shoei JO helmet in black

Steve C: Noisy

I bought this helmet to wear on my Harley. It looks great, is beautifully made, and the visor is discreet, so you dont look nerdy on the cool-look Harley. The real issue is the level of noise when riding. But for this, I would have opted for 5 stars. To add some perspective, I only ever use ear plugs on a long run on my tourer. With this helmet, the high pitch whine sounds like a jet engine in each ear, even at 40 mph - I kid you not. It is so intrusive I can barely hear my Vance and Hines Big Radius pipes when Im riding! I will continue to use it, because it looks great, but ear plugs are a must folks.
