A wide coverage: The best helmet should offer protection against anything that should come your way during the trip.: rain, wind, sticks, rocks and other debris.Great Ventilation and Streamlined Design: You will wear the helmet many hours each day during your trip, so it'll help if it has great ventilation and a streamlined design.

AHR helmet guide: Does dropping a motorcycle helmet from low height ruin it?AHR helmet guide: Does dropping a motorcycle helmet from low height ruin it?The answer is generally NO. Normally, the real concern is from a major drop (for example from a balcony or second story window) or accident. If you drop it from your hand or it falls off you bike seat or handle there should be no issue. If you do drop it, you should still inspect it carefully. If there are no dents or cracks in the shell and none of the inside components are loose, then you shouldn't need to replace it. However, it should be noted that frequent drops, even from your hand, can reduce the effectiveness of the helmet, and it could fail in an accident. Please take good care of you helmet and store it properly when not in use. AHR helmet guide: How Tight Should a Motorcycle Helmet Be?AHR helmet guide: How Tight Should a Motorcycle Helmet Be?How do you know how tight your new motorcycle helmet should be? How tight is too tight? How loose is too loose? Here are a few tips that can help: How tight is too tight?No Pressure PointsA well-fitting helmet should be comfortably snug around the entire wearer's head without resulting in pressure points. Any pressure points or discomfort on the sides means that the helmet is too small, or not the right shape. Pressure points on the back of your head, at the base of your helmet, could mean that the helmet is not long enough. For a full-face helmet, if you feel the helmet squeezing your temples/cheeks too much and it causes discomfort, it means the helmet is too small. No Red ForeheadIf you fasten the chin strap and wear your helmet for a half hour and notice red spots when you take it off, it is too tight for you.No Headache If you get headaches or it is hard to breath during/after wearing the helmet, you should choose another size or consider another style of helmet, such as an open face helmet. How loose is too loose?(1) While riding, the helmet shouldn't have any up, down, or side to side movement. If you rock your head from side to side, or up and down, and the helmet moves, it means it is too loose for you. (2) Fasten the chin strap and look straight ahead, then try to take off the helmet. If it comes off, this helmet is too large for you. (3) If there is a gap between your cheek and the cheek pad, and your fingers can fit through, then the helmet is too loose for you. AHR Helmets: 4 Tips for new riders when buying a helmetAHR Helmets: 4 Tips for new riders when buying a helmetChoosing a suitable helmet is not an easy task for new rider. You not only need to find something stylish, but something that will protect you in the event of a crash. Here are 4 things to consider when buying a helmet. 1. Choose a helmet that meets DOT safety standardsEach state has its own laws pertaining to motorcycle helmets. Some states may not require the rider to wear a helmet that meets DOT safety standards. However, we do recommend you wear a helmet that meets DOT safety standards for your own safety. All AHR helmets meet DOT safety standards, and you can find the record information on the DOT official website. 2. Select a correct helmet styleThere are several types of helmets and each is designed for a different purpose. It is important you know which helmet you will need. You can refer to the link below for information of the different helmet types. A Guide to Types of AHR Helmets3. Determine you head shape. People generally have one of three head shapes: long oval, intermediate oval, and round oval. Some helmets will only fit a specific head shape, so it is important to figure out your head shape before buying. To find out your head shape, you can ask a family member or friend to take a photo of your head from above. Please make sure to flatten your hair as much as possible. If the forehead to back and ear to ear measurements are about the same, then your head is round oval shaped. If the forehead to back measurement is slightly longer than ear to ear, then your head is intermediate oval shaped. If the forehead to back is much longer than ear to ear measurement, then your head is long oval shaped. 4. Measure your head correctly by the seller's size chartDifferent sellers may have different size guides since the shape of the shell or inner padding of the helmets may be different. Often people only use their hat size to determine what helmet size they need. This may cause a fit issue. Because of this, we recommend you measure your head carefully to make sure the size will be suitable. It is not hard to figure out your head size, you just need a soft tape measure. If you buy AHR helmets, please follow the below size chart. A Guide to Types of AHR HelmetsA Guide to Types of AHR HelmetsA helmet is the most important piece of safety gear you need while riding a motorcycle.

Yes, all our AHR helmets are DOT certified. As shown in the listing photos, each helmet has a small DOT sticker on the back. Some new riders may have heard of the DOT certification, but they may not understand why it is important, so we have provided an explanation below.What is DOT?DOT stands for the Department of Transportation. This organization set Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) 218 for motorcycle helmets. All helmets sold for use by motorcyclists in the United States are required to meet this standard. Helmets that meet the requirements of FMVSS 218 are considered 'DOT certified' and are given a DOT sticker. However, the Department of Transportation doesn't test the helmets directly. Instead, the DOT holds the helmet manufacturers responsible for testing their own helmets and adjusting to meet the standards. What to do to meet FMVSS 218? A helmet needs to pass 3 tests to meet FMVSS 218. First is the impact attenuation test. It includes dropping the helmet on different impact anvil (flat anvil and cylindrical penetrator anvil) from a pre-set height. It simulates a crash scenario, and the impact is measured using scientific tools under two separate crash tests. Second is the penetration test. The helmet is fixed to a base, then a sharp striker is dropped on the outer surface of the helmet. The test striker must not penetrate the helmet, otherwise it will not pass the test. Third is the retention strap test. For this test, the helmet retention straps are placed under a load in tension. The test starts with a load of 50lbs for 30 seconds. The load is then increased to 300lbs for 120 seconds. The strap test ensures it can hold the helmet in place in case of an accidentWhat does a DOT sticker look like? The DOT sticker contains the following wording and information: manufacturer and/or brand, DOT, FMVSS No. 218, CERTIFIEDAlthough the DOT certification is often considered as the most basic standard, it does certify that the helmet meets important safety standards. We recommend being sure that any helmets you purchase have this certification. Helmet: How do you measure head size before choosing a helmet?Helmet: How do you measure head size before choosing a helmet?A tailor's tape is the best tool for measuring your head for a helmet. Wrap the tape around the thickest part of your head. For most people, this will be right above your ears, approximately half an inch above your eyebrows. Measure your head circumference. Please refer head circumference table below to choosing a right size helmet. 4 Tips to keep your AHR helmet from being stolen4 Tips to keep your AHR helmet from being stolenA motorcycle helmet is essential for your safety when riding the open road.
