If you're going to ride, you need to be as safe as possible and that starts at the top of your head with a good ATV or motocross helmet. Making the right decision for yourself helmet-wise is a personal choice but there are a number of factors you can use to narrow down your choices to the best fit for your personal riding style. Most helmets made today are constructed using lightweight, space-age materials and are DOT (Department Of Transportation) approved.
Motocross and dirt bike helmets are normally designed to be both lightweight and durable so the rider won't feel fatigued. These helmets usually have full-face protection because of the flying debris and rocks ("roost") that gets kicked up during a ride.
ATV helmets are made from durable injection molded plastics and in case of an impact, will offer you unmatched protection. Because ATVs kick up just as much debris as when riding a dirt bike, ATV helmets are usually full face as well. Many helmets have wisely designed venting systems to keep you cool and contrary to popular belief, you can actually hear BETTER when you wear a helmet no matter if you ride an ATV or a dirt bike because the wind noise is reduced in your ears.
Make sure your helmet is DOT certified and most of all understand how your helmet should fit. A helmet should fit snugly but not constrict your head and it should go on and off with little resistance.
Last but not least, if the "look" of your helmet matters to you, rest assured there is a color or style to match your personality. There are low-key single color helmets, wild tie-dyed looking helmets and so much more, check out the huge selection at Raceway and remember, shipping is always free of charge!
