Pre-wearing checks
Inspect your helmet for any cracks or damage before wearing.
Ensure the chin strap and buckles are intact and functional.
Clean the visor for clear visibility before putting on the helmet.
Check that ventilation ports are unobstructed.
Proper wearing technique
Hold the helmet with both hands at the sides of the shell.
Tilt your head slightly forward and position the helmet above your head.
Lower it gently over your head in one smooth motion.
Ensure the helmet sits evenly on your head without tilting.
Securing the chin strap
Fasten the chin strap securely under your chin.
Tighten the strap until it's snug but not too restrictive.
Ensure the strap doesn't cut off circulation or cause discomfort.
Verify the chin strap stays in place when you move your head.
Final fit verification
Try to roll the helmet backward - it shouldn't move excessively.
Attempt to rotate the helmet side-to-side - minimal movement indicates proper fit.
Ensure no pressure points dig into your skull or face.
Confirm the visor positioning allows for comfortable visibility.
