Product Description
Throwbacks and retro motorcycle helmets are nice, but nothing beats an original. Back in 1954 Bell founder Roy Richter formed his first motorcycle helmet out of fiberglass and named it the "500". That moment was ground zero for the modern motorsport helmet and it gave rise to an entire industry. The all new Bell Custom 500 Open-Face Motorcycle Helmet pays homage to Richter's original design and adds modern protective technology to bring the design up-to-date while still keeping the original's aesthetic. By combining a custom fiberglass lay-up with a specially designed EPS foam layer, Bell engineers were able to craft a motorcycle helmet that is at once lightweight, narrow in profile, and DOT-compliant. Adding custom paint-inspired graphics, chrome trim work and a quilted liner, the Bell Custom 500 Motorcycle Helmet looks as good as it performs. Lo-profile design. Custom fiberglass shell. Custom-quilted liner. Chrome trim. Integrated snaps for aftermarket shields and visors. Padded chin strap with D-ring closure and strap keeper. DOT certified. Fire-year warranty. For proper fit and size measure the circumference of your head 1" above your eyebrows and around the largest portion of the back of your head. 21 5/8" - 22"-----------Small 22 3/8" - 22 3/4"-------Medium 23 1/4" - 23 5/8"-------Large 24" - 24 3/8"-----------X-Large 24 3/4" - 25 1/4" ------XX-Large

Bell Custom 500 Open-Face Motorcycle Helmet X-Large Silver Flake Reviews
| 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful: Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Bell Custom 500 Helmet - Large/Orange Flake Ordered it on a Monday, got it on Wednesday with just the standard shipping. Love the helmet- fit and finish is superb. Fits tight (I'm a large) but a new helmet should. I'm clean-shaven bald so the criss-cross pattern makes me look like Pinhead from Hellraiser for a while after I take it off (cool). Does not lift up at highway speeds at all. No ear holes so kinda hard to hear your gilrfriend, which can be a good thing. Overall very pleased so far! Looks bitchin in orange metal flake! 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful: By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Bell Custom 500 Open-Face Motorcycle Helmet Medium Silver Flake This is just what I was looking for!! Was going to buy a used actual vintage helmet until I searched here and found that they are producing them again! So sparkly, my only complaint would be that it seems to run a tad small per the sizing chart. My BF's head measures at the top of the medium chart but I think a large would have fit him better. 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful: Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Bell Custom 500 Helmet - Small/White love the helmet. a solid, DOT helmet, but not the size of a beach ball, so i don't feel top heave and it doesn't flop around. quality interior, very comfortable. my only complaint is that the small is just not quite small enough for my head. with a bandana on, its just about right. I dont' think thats the fault of the helmet though. |
