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 But, frankly, that view is outdated.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 Anthem TC10 helmet in red / white / blue
I replaced my Neotec 2 as it was 5 yrs old with a new Neotec 3 in the recent sale event. It is a better helmet than the Neotec 2 in a number of areas the quality of finish, graphics, quietness, sun visor and it is designed and tested to the latest standard. The medium size fits my head shape well and after changing the head lining its been comfortable over a 2000km trip to Spain. An area for further improvement would be the top of the helmet ventilation as consistent temperatures over 30C left my head sweating. I didnt use PFS but it was simple and cost free to swap the liner for a thinner one. I also transferred the Sena SRL2 comms from the old helmet to the new using the Shoei adaptor. That took a morning to do but it works very effectively and saves £300. In summary the Neotec 3 is an improvement in just about every aspect and is a better helmet than its predecessor. Delivery and service by Motolegends was its usual high standard.
Schuberth C5 / E2 cheek pads
I wish I had known about the deal that MotoLegends do in relation to the Schuberth alternative inserts. If I had I would have also purchased the helmet from them as well and saved myself some money. They swap the standard options out if you need smallerlarger alternatives and dont charge you for the new ones, but simple keep the original ones in exchange. Excellent customer focused idea.
