Open Face Helmet
An Open Face Helmet is a type of motorcycle helmet that provides protection while allowing the rider's face to remain exposed. Unlike full-face helmets, which cover the entire head and face, open face helmets have a design that includes a shell that covers the top, back, and sides of the head but leaves the face open. This design offers a greater sense of freedom and visibility, making it popular among riders who prefer a more open riding experience.
These helmets often come with a visor or face shield that can be attached or removed, providing some protection against wind and debris. Open face helmets are commonly used in various riding styles, including cruising and touring, and are often favored by those who enjoy the feeling of the wind on their face. Safety standards for open face helmets are similar to those for other helmet types, ensuring that they provide adequate protection in the event of an accident.
