Buy safely a Youth Motocross Gear Helmet

To buy safely a youth motocross gear helmet you need to buy one that is both DOT and Snell certified.Virtually all helmets have the DOT certification, but spend the few extra dollars for one with Snell Foundation certification. It's your head!

Getting the right fit is critical for your dirt bike helmet. If you buy it too large and get in a wreck, your skull won’t be secured and protected. If you buy it too small, you’ll never be comfortable. To get the correct fit, measure the distance around the widest part of your noggin and know your hat size.

Almost all motocross helmets on the market today are light enough that they do not bother your neck. But, the more expensive helmets constructed with Kevlar and/or carbon fiber are ultra light and feel extra comfortable on your head.

If you’re into stylin’ on the track or trail, you’ll have to spend a few extra bucks and purchase a helmet for more than $150 or look for closeout bargains (that’s what I recently did). These helmets come with the coolest colors and graphics and look really good. If you want the best, check out the new flat (not shiney) helmets from Fox, or get a custom paint job from Troy Lee Designs or another graphic painter.

To protect your eyes from flying rocks and sticks, always wear goggles.

Recommended Motocross and Dirt Bike Helmets

If you want an inexpensive dirt bike helmet, HJC, KBC, THH and other brands have some good choices for you. When I got back into riding after a 10 year hiatus, I had great luck with an HJC model. It fit right, gave me the protection I needed during many crashes and encounters with tree branches and flying rocks. These models offer good protection, look good, and retail for $80-120.

For $120 to 250 you can get into the helmet models that are super light, way more stylish, and offer more features. All the good brands like ACX2, Arai, Fox, M2R, Oneal and Shoei have great helmets at this price point. Many come with a handy helmet bag for protection while storing or transporting your helmet, and some even include an extra visor.

If your credit card is burning a hole in your wallet and you’ve gotta get the most pimp-daddy helmet, you can get into the ultra-light Kevlar, carbon fiber, and custom painted models from Fox, Troy Lee Designs, etc. These can cost you $250-500!

Useful Helmet Tips

When you stop for a rest on the trail or off the track, don’t place your helmet somewhere high like your seat where it can fall down. I did this to my last helmet and cringed when it fell off my bike onto the gravel road chipping the new paint!

Over time your goggles will get small scratches in them making your visibility less than 100%. Use a soft clean cloth to spread some Pledge furniture treatment on the lens to fill in the little scratches. It works!

Bring a small bottle of RainX windshield treatment to spray on your goggles if it rains during your trial ride. It keeps the water drops off your goggles for great visibility.
