RETENTION SYSTEM

: The chin straps should be tightened as much as possible 

without causing pain. Once fastened, the helmet should not come off. In case it does, the 

chin strap is either too loose or the helmet is the wrong size. 

The only function of the snap 

fitted on the end of the chin strap is to avoid fluttering of the end part of the chin strap.

PROTECTION

Helmets that fit properly are designed to provide you with maximum 

protection. However, it cannot protect you against all possible impacts or foreseeable ac-

cidents. If there is too much movement and space while wearing the helmet, this increases 

your chance of serious injury. After the helmet has protected you once, it will need to 

be replaced. Even if you cannot see the damage to the naked eye the damage can be 

internally. The liner may be compacted in which it loses its full absorption ability. A crack or 

dent will not be able to take another impact. If you are unsure about the one-contact rule 

and if it applies to a small hit or drop. Consult your dealer before using your helmet.

CLEANING/CARE

:

 The best method for cleaning your helmet is room temperature water 

mixed with a mild detergent. For liners and padding, hand-wash only. Using petroleum 

based chemicals, gasoline, solvents, or cleaning agents are not permitted. These products 

can seriously damage the shell, liners or face shield. They can also weaken the helmet 

which lessens the amount of protection upon impact. Dampen a soft cloth with water and 

wipe the helmet clean. The best way to dry the liners are to air dry them. Do not leave 

them out in direct sunlight. A helmet is meant to be worn. Do not sit on or throw the helmet 

under any circumstance. Hanging it from the motorcycle’s mirrors can damage both the 

helmet and mirror. Do not paint over the helmet’s finish. Do not modify any part of the 

helmet. Following these simple guidelines will help the helmet last longer.

VENTILATION

There are vents in the mouth area and the forehead area. These are 

in place to allow airflow to cool you down and prevent fogging. The vents can either be 

opened or closed.

HEARING

Your helmet covers the ears, therefore muffling wind and other traffic noises. 

The helmet wearer must always check and always be aware of his/her ability to hear the 

necessary sounds such as horns, and emergency vehicle sirens.

SIZING

To measure your head size, wrap a tape measure horizontally around your 

forehead. Select the helmet that is the closest fit to that size. A helmet should fit snug on 

your head. If it moves while wearing, it is too large. If it is painful to wear, it is too small. 

For proper sizing, your nearest dealer will be able to help you get sized.
