Choosing the right ATV helmet can be a daunting task, especially when you're new to the world of all-terrain vehicles. There are lots of options available on the market to suit different needs, styles, and budgets.
However, with the right guidance and knowledge, you can find a helmet that will offer you the best protection while riding your ATV. Here are some valuable tips to consider when choosing ATV helmets.
Tip #1: Safety Standards
When choosing an ATV helmet, safety should be the top priority. Ensure that the helmet you choose meets the safety standards set by the Department of Transportation (DOT) and the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). Some other safety standards to consider include Snell Memorial Foundation and ECE. The DOT requires all motorcycle helmets to meet specific safety standards for impact resistance, penetration resistance, retention system strength, and field of vision. This means that if you're using your ATV on public land, your helmet must meet DOT standards. The CPSC requires all bicycle helmets sold in the US to meet strict safety requirements, which include impact testing and strap strength. You can find a CPSC label on the inside or outside of the helmet. Snell Memorial Foundation and ECE are two additional safety standards that some helmets may meet. They conduct rigorous testing on helmets to evaluate their impact resistance, retention system strength, and penetration resistance.Tip #2: Helmet Type
ATV helmets come in different types, styles and designs. The right type of helmet will depend on the type of ATV riding you're doing. Full-face helmets offer the most protection, covering your face and chin area. They're ideal for high-speed riding, rough terrain, and off-road racing. Open-face helmets, also called 3/4 helmets, provide less protection but offer better visibility and ventilation. They're great for easy rides or low-speed riding. Half helmets cover the top of your head only and provide minimal protection. They're best for short rides or when you're riding at low speeds. Modular or flip-up helmets offer the best of both worlds as they can be used as both full-face or open-face helmets, depending on the rider's preference.Tip #3: Helmet Fit
The fit of your ATV helmet is critical to your safety and comfort while riding. An ill-fitting helmet can shift or move around during an accident, leaving you vulnerable to head injuries. When trying on helmets, make sure it's a snug fit. You don't want your helmet to move around when you shake your head. The helmet's chin strap should fit comfortably but securely under your chin. The helmet should not be too tight that it causes discomfort or headaches. If the helmet is too loose, you can add extra padding or choose a smaller size. If you plan on wearing glasses or goggles, make sure to test out the helmet with them. Some helmets have different shapes or sizes that can accommodate various eye protection.Tip #4: Helmet Ventilation
Ventilation is an essential factor to consider when choosing an ATV helmet. The helmet's ventilation system should keep your head cool and comfortable, especially during hot weather or long rides. Some helmets feature ventilation channels or exhaust ports that allow air to circulate and cool your head. Others have removable liners, which can be washed and replaced or adjusted for comfort. Consider the type of rider you are when choosing a helmet with ventilation. If you're more of a thrill-seeker and tend to ride at high speeds, you may need a helmet with more ventilation to keep your head cool.Tip #5: Helmet Material
ATV helmets are made from various materials, including polycarbonate, fiberglass composite, carbon fiber, or Kevlar. Polycarbonate helmets are the most affordable and can provide adequate protection for most ATV riding. They're durable and lightweight but may not be as strong as other materials. Fiberglass composite helmets are stronger and can absorb more impact. They're lightweight and have better shock absorption. However, they're more expensive than polycarbonate helmets. Carbon fiber helmets are the most lightweight and durable. They're expensive but offer excellent impact resistance and shock absorption. Kevlar helmets provide excellent protection against impact and penetration. They're also lightweight and comfortable. However, they're more expensive than other materials.Tip #6: Helmet Design
The design of your helmet is not just about aesthetics; it can also affect your visibility, hearing, and mobility while riding your ATV. Choose a helmet with a design that suits your riding style and preference. Some helmets feature graphic designs or colors that give them a unique look. Consider helmets with visors or shields as they can protect your face from dirt, rocks, or debris. Tinted visors can also offer some protection against glare from the sun. Helmets with audio systems or Bluetooth connectivity can enhance your riding experience. However, they can also create distractions, so use them responsibly.Tip #7: Helmet Brand
Consider choosing a reputable helmet brand that has a good reputation for quality, safety, and customer service. Some of the top ATV helmet brands include Bell, Shoei, Arai, HJC, and Fox Racing. Avoid buying cheap or unknown brands as they may not meet safety standards, and you may not be able to find replacement parts or accessories.Conclusion
Choosing the right ATV helmet is important for your safety and enjoyment while riding. Consider the safety standards, helmet type, fit, ventilation, material, design, and brand before making your decision. With these valuable tips, you can find a helmet that fits your needs, style, and budget.Related Topics You Might Like
