If you’re the type of rider that loves to upgrade, modify and trick out your motorcycle with useful add-ons to make life in the saddle more manageable, you know the value of gear real estate. After your panniers, tank bag, GPS, heated grips and seat, 12v sockets and extensions, LED rally lights and mounted GoPros, what space do you have left? Well, just use your head — literally.
In its most basic form, the helmet is your single most important piece of gear — it protects your moneymaker after all. But whether you went for a lid that gives you basic protection or snagged the latest, greatest, top-of-the-line model, you can always use some upgrades. We picked out a few of our favorite, more useful add-ons, but don’t tack all of these on your helmet at once. Be reasonable with add-ons; just pick up this gear first.
Speedmetal Wind Stopper Helmet Skirt
Clearly a great addition for the colder months and/or higher altitudes, the Wind Stopper Helmet Skirt does exactly as its name suggests. The Helmet Skirt creates a seal around your neck, trapping warm air in your helmet, and keeps you nice and toasty. Brushing and mouthwash is highly recommended before a long ride.
