Flip-up Motorcycle Helmets

Flip-up helmets divide opinion. Some riders love them. Some think they’re for police officers and a certain kind of BMW rider. But, frankly, that view is outdated. At Motolegends, we’re big believers in flip lids - they offer a blend of practicality, comfort and performance that’s hard to beat.
 
First, a well-designed flip-front helmet is often quieter than a full-face. That’s because it can be slipped over the head from behind, allowing a snugger neck roll that seals better against noise. When closed, a flip-up helmet is every bit as safe and aerodynamic as a full-face. But when you’re in town, stuck at the lights or simply want some air, you can pop it open and breathe. Need to ask directions? No need to take your helmet off.
 
Flip-lids are also preferred by emergency services. In the event of an accident, they give medics quicker access to your airways - without needing to fully remove your helmet.
 
Our favourites? The Shoei Neotec 3 is hard to beat - quiet, refined and incredibly well made. The Schuberth C5 is a worthy challenger, especially with its integrated Mesh comms and updated safety shell. Both are ECE 22-06 certified, offer custom fit options, and can be tailored to your head at our Guildford store.

Shoei Neotec 3 helmet in white

Ian: PFS at Motolegends

I took delivery of my new motorbike a week ago, and had bought a new Shoei Neotec 3 from Motolegends as my old JO open face was coming to the end of its life. The opportunity arose to visit Guildford for a PFS appointment with Joe so I got one sorted out - nice and easy on the website. We arrived a bit early and were met by Naimh, who quickly arranged for Joe to see me and my Sister and Brother-in-law to look at trousers and gloves - all successful! The eagle-eyed Joe spotted my footwear and we instantly bonded over our support of the premier West Yorkshire football team. A change of headliner had the Neotec fitting perfectly - his reputation is well-deserved. Overall, a fantastic experience, and thoroughly recommended - thank you all.

Martin Wilson: I took advantage of the free SPF offer.....

Free SPF if you bought your Shoei helmet from ML- agenerous offer. Neotec 2 bought 4 years ago - very happy with it but thought it wouldnt hurt to get a proper fitting - so...the PFS was great experience, highly recommended and Joe spotted where he could make the helmet fit a great deal better. So as not to hurt Chriss bottom line too much, while I was there, I bought a Neotec 3 and had a PFS on that too! Essentially ML are very nice people to do business with.

Stuart J: Shoei Neotec 3 SRL 3

Had a Neotec 2 now upgraded and you know Shoei have done it again. The PFS fitting service invaluable in getting a nice snug fit. The quality of the kit and fitting is superb. This with the SRL-3 intercom system is a fantastic piece of kit. Love all the new features. Centre opening visor is more rigid, vents good, the SRL-3 buttons easier to use with the gloves. The cheek and neck skirts seal around you. Yep a great choice and great colour.
