Wearing a Helmet Is Safe, Stylish, and Provides Optimal Comfort

Feature Description:

As you can imagine, motorcycles are much more vulnerable than other vehicles when involved in an accident or crash. Car and truck drivers are protected by the frame of the car and airbags that help to minimize injuries, while motorcycle riders are at a greater risk of injury.

Daytona Helmets are developed with a sleek, slim design that possesses exceptional protection that we hope you never have to utilize. No matter what you ride, ride with peace of mind and confidence that you are protected with Daytona Helmets.

Superior Style & Protection

Daytona Helmets skull cap positioning and style

Daytona Helmets are made of high-quality polycarbonate plastic that is extremely durable, lightweight, breathable, and comfortable. Our half skull cap helmet meets and exceeds DOT FMVSS 218 safety standards, which provides riders with the peace of mind that they are extremely protected and secure at all times.

The interior of our helmet contains expanded polystyrene (EPS) that provides superior impact absorption and protection in case of an accident or flying debris. EPS is a crushable foam that is designed to slow the movement of your head inside the helmet, while simultaneously absorbing the outer impact. Each helmet also has a comfort liner with moisture-wicking fabric to help keep you cool and comfortable.

Daytona Helmets provide stylish, comfortable protection for all head sizes – 3XS, 2XS, XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL. Our lidz are designed to fit snug., without pinching, hair pulling, or play between head and helmet. To ensure a comfortable, secure fit, our helmets employ a nylon Y-strap lock retention system that allows for quick-release, especially in emergency situations, with a sliding adjuster for precise positioning.

It's just okay, does the job
I was in search of an affordable half helmet, and this fit the bill. It's definitely a great value and appears to be well made. Overall a pretty good looking helmet.This helmet is heavy for what it is. when you put it on your head, you'll really notice the weight. As far as sizing, I'd say it runs small. I wear an XL in most helmets, and I couldn't get the XL on my head. I ended up ordering the XXL and the fit was good.My biggest gripe with this lid is the sheer size of it. It's a big helmet. I have no fairing on my bike and when I got over 40 mph, this thing would catch the wind and start to lift off of my head. It was so bad, I'd have to constantly adjust it at every stop light. If you have a fairing on your bike, you may not experience the same effect.After wearing the Daytona for two and a half months, I had to give it up for something smaller and lighter. I know there's not as much protection in a more minimal helmet, but they're a lot more comfortable. I guess it's a trade off you have to be willing to make.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome helmet! 4XL Great fit for big heads
Reviewed in the United States on October 27, 2021
Took a risk buying the “used, like new” option for way cheaper $$ and the decision literally paid itself off. I got this Dayton helmet for way less and after receiving it and trying it on it went from my second option helmet to my everyday helmet. I would paid full price with zero regrets. Got the helmet in 4XL. I got a huge head and it fits great! I tried on Harley Helmets and this helmet not only fits better but was a fraction of the price. I didn't see pictures of the inside and still took the risk, yet another risky decision, but the helmet didn’t disappoint, it is well padded, light weight comfortable and very durable. I can honestly say I feel safe in it. The most impressive feature of this helmet in my opinion would be the chinstrap. Instead of a button up it’s a quick release clip chin strap pull buckle! Definitely more functional ! The mat black is definitely the way to go if your looking for something to decal and make your own. It’s a great color, true mat black. And no I don’t work for the company, I’m just a really satisfied customer that wants his brothers and sisters riding to get a good deal and great helmet! You won’t regret it!
