1. YEMA Helmet Motorcycle Open Face Helmet

Taking up the first spot on this article is a product from the company YEMA. The manufacturer has been able to get a decent spot on quite a lot of my articles. Well, today, it has earned the first position, and that is very impressive. The YM-627 helmet boasts many features, which help deserve this first place.

Let’s see what features it offers. This YEMA helmet is available in two different colors. It can be bought in either matte black or simply white. Personally, I prefer the black color because of its stealthier look. Regardless, both feature the same design. The helmet is also available in sizes up to XXL, which is more than enough for most people.

As this is an open face helmet, it is not as safe as full-face helmets. This is not a drawback but a fact of this design. But the manufacturer has made sure to make the helmet as safe and secure as possible.

The helmet is DOT approved, and the shell used provides adequate protection against impacts. There are many more features which the brand has included for convenience and a better driving experience.

The helmet has a dual visor design. You can install a clear one and a smoky one at one time, providing you protection from the sun while keeping your field of view clear. The lining pads of this helmet are also removable. You can wash them to keep them clean and bacteria-free. This is certainly good news for many riders out there, especially those who sweat a lot.

Although YEMA has impressed a lot lately, it looks like this helmet was not properly put through testing before releasing it in the market. The manufacturer should fix this design flaw so that users don’t have to go through the same frustration again.

2. Daytona Helmets Motorcycle Open Face Helmet

When you are in the market for a helmet and the word Daytona pop-ups, then you should get that product without any second thought. Daytona has been featured in almost all of my articles, and the company makes some amazing helmets. With over 1200 positive ratings with this product, it is certainly a popular option out there.

You will be genuinely impressed with this helmet’s offerings. The helmet is available in four simple colors. You can choose from matte black, glossy black, gun metallic and white. The manufacturer claims that this helmet will provide you with the ultimate protection and comfort. Talking about protection, the helmet is DOT approved.

This means that you are getting a product that is completely legal for use in the streets of the United States. You should not run into any issues with the authorities regarding the legality of this open face helmet.

One thing that bothers many bike riders is that the strap starts pinching their hair at high speeds. This makes everyday rides uncomfortable and distracts you from the road too.

Well, that changes with this Daytona helmet. The manufacturer has created a design that is distraction-free. It is also very easy to use. The inclusion of the quick release mechanism means that the helmet can be easily removed without any difficulty.

Finally, the helmet will have a guaranteed snug fit. The worry of getting a mushroom head is a thing of the past with this Daytona helmet.

It must be noted that it was a very small number of consumers. You should also check out the majority of the ratings, which are positive. Other than that, as always, Daytona has made a solid helmet that will impress you.

3. LS2 Rebellion Motorcycle Half Helmet

Taking up the third spot is another great helmet by the company LS2. The manufacturer has been featured on a few of my articles before, but it never was able to earn one of the top three positions on my articles. Well, that changes today with this Rebellion half helmet. This helmet is available in a variety of different colors, seven to be exact.

This is great news for people who don’t want to buy a boring old black helmet. Well, you are going to love the color options on this LS2 helmet. The helmet has some pretty great features, with one of them being the utilization of moisture-wicking fabric for the interior.

No matter the sweat you produce, it will be absorbed almost instantly. This means that your head will remain cool, and you will not have to remove the helmet after a few hours of riding.

It does not end there. There is one distinct feature that is found in very few helmets. This product is Bluetooth enabled. There are no Bluetooth slots but actual Bluetooth capabilities present in this helmet.

You can answer and decline phone calls as well as listen to music without pulling out your phone ever during your daily rides. This is certainly a handy feature, and many of you tech enthusiasts will love it.

The helmet also has excellent ventilation, which means that you will not get a sweaty head soon after riding. It is also DOT approved. What this means is that you are getting a product that has been cleared for use, legally speaking, on USA streets.

Sending the wrong sized helmet is a common issue among manufacturers. It looks like LS2 has also joined their ranks with this helmet. The manufacturer should look into this issue and resolve it as soon as possible.

4. TORC T1 Retro Full Face Helmet

Taking up the fourth spot on this article is another decent helmet. The company in focus here is TORC. Their helmets have impressed me in the past. Let’s see if the trend continues with this T1 Retro full-face helmet. If you are looking for a helmet that will provide you with plenty of color options, then there is no better product to go for than this T1 helmet.

The brand has offered users nineteen different color options, all being completely unique and different! So, you can choose the one you love and turn heads wherever you go. The helmet is also available in plenty of sizes, them ranging from XS to XXL. You will not have to worry about getting a helmet that is too small or too large.

Let’s talk durability. In all of my previous articles, I have made it clear that fiberglass or carbon fiber is the main material you should go for, given that money is no object. Most helmets I check out are made up of ABS plastic.

Well, this TORC helmet has been made using fiberglass, which is the number one choice for an exterior shell. It is lightweight and extremely durable.

It has an impressive ability to spread the impact forces quickly and efficiently. The vents are made of a metal mesh, which means that they won’t break off. The liner used in the interior of this helmet is made up of faux suede.

If you have any idea of this fabric, then you may be aware of it being incredibly soft and comfortable. The helmet also features a removable shield that is completely scratch resistant.

Personally, I would not consider this as a con of owning the product. Regardless of the feel, I did not find any feedback where users had a proper complaint regarding the product. So, you can order it with complete peace of mind.

5. 1Storm Motorcycle Modular Dual Visor Sun Shield Flip Up Full Face Helmet

After checking out products from companies I have already taken a look at before, I thought it was time to find a helmet from a manufacturer which had not crossed my eyes yet. Well, behold, the modular full-face helmet from 1Storm. With almost 3000 positive ratings, the helmet has gathered many happy buyers.

Let’s take a closer look into what makes it so good. As the brand is a bit unknown to me, I will be trying to cover all bases to make sure that you know everything there is to know about its product.

First of all, this helmet is DOT approved. If you were worried about that, well, you don’t have to take tension about that anymore. The helmet is completely legal for use in USA streets.

It has a thermoplastic alloy shell, which is pretty durable and provides adequate impact protection. The helmet has a modular design. The flip-up dual-lens design will certainly impress anyone who sees it.

The inner one is a smoked lens, while the outer one is a clear lens. Both of them combined means that you will get an excellent field of vision while protecting yourself from the harsh rays of the sun.

One issue raised by many helmet buyers is the lack of removable padding. The company has included that too in this full-face helmet. The padding can be removed and washed. You can keep the helmet in pristine condition at all times. Worrying about bacteria formation due to sweat is a thing of the past.

The manufacturer should address these design flaws sooner rather than later. Wind noise is something that can distract a rider. Plus, making a helmet uncomfortable does not help either. These issues must be resolved as soon as possible. Otherwise, 1Storm has made a fantastic helmet.

6. ROYAL M17 Open Face Motorcycle Helmet

The sixth and final product of this article has finally arrived. I must clarify one thing. Although this helmet earned the last spot on this list, it is definitely not the least. These seven helmets were chosen from dozens of different options, so all of them are winners in my eyes. With that said, the final listing on this article is the M17 helmet from the company Royal.

This helmet is available in three different colors. You can go for matte black, glossy black and white. All of them look good, but the matte black is the clear winner. With no need to clean it and its overall stealthy look, it is my personal favorite. The helmet is also available in four different sizes.

From medium to XXL, you have plenty of options to choose from. This Royal helmet is DOT approved. It meets or exceeds all safety standards set by the US safety authorities. You should not run into any legal issues while using this helmet. The helmet has an ABS build. It is not the best choice of material out there, but it is decent at its job.

The helmet has an aerodynamic design. This means that there will be no wind drag or noise, which is a common issue with helmets on the market. The helmet also has excellent ventilation. You will not have to worry about sweat formation due to lack of airflow.

Although you can consider this Royal M17 helmet, I would suggest the other options first. This helmet is decent but should not be too high on your consideration list. It checks the right boxes of a good helmet, but there are better alternatives out there and on this list.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Are Round Helmets Safer?

Now, this is a very interesting question. I conducted some research to find out if this statement holds any value. And surprisingly, round helmets are safer than most other helmet designs out there.

They reduce the chance of the impact of actually reaching your head, which is the main point of owning a helmet.

This means that if you are looking to get a product solely due to safety reasons, then a round helmet is one that you should definitely consider.

Q2: How Should I Find Out The Right Head Shape?

As there are plenty of head shapes out there, there are different shell designs to accommodate them.

Now the question arises, which helmet shape is perfect for you? Well, I have got the answer to this mystery. The best way to confirm this is by visiting a helmet shop and trying out different helmet shapes.

This way, you will not only be able to confirm the shape that is suitable for you, but you will also get a rough idea of what size you should get.

Q3: What Kind Of Shell Design Should I Go For My Round Head?

I think it is evident by the above list that an open face helmet is the best shell design for round heads.

Others may also work, but you need to order them and then risk it to make sure if they will fit on your head without causing any discomfort.

Well, that is certainly not the case with open-face helmets. They have been designed for people with round heads. So, this type of helmet should be on the top of your consideration list.

Q4: How Do I Know My Round Helmet Head Size?

One thing that I have seen a lot in helmet feedbacks is that users tend to guess and order the helmet’s size. This often results in them receiving incorrect items, due to which they leave negative ratings.

Well, you need to grab a measuring tape and take a reading of the size of your head at the part where it sticks out the most.

Then you need to compare the reading with the size chart, which the manufacturer may have included on the product page.

Conclusion

Although having a round head is not convenient, I hope I have successfully played my part in making it easier for you.

From big companies like Daytona to brands like Westt, I have covered seven different brands to make sure that you will have different options to choose from.
