Product Information

Full details

The Bell Custom 500 Jet Helmet is designed for adult riders who appreciate classic motorcycle heritage combined with modern safety standards. This open-face helmet delivers a signature low-profile fit that avoids the 'bobblehead' look while providing reliable protection; however, users should note that as an open-face model, it does not offer the chin and face coverage found in full-face helmets.

FAQs

Is the visor included with the helmet?

No, the Bell Custom 500 comes with the 5-snap system, but the shield or visor must be purchased separately.

Does this helmet provide chin protection?

No, this is an open-face jet helmet and does not cover the chin or jaw area.

Can I use this for track days?

Most track organizations require full-face helmets; please check the specific regulations for your event.

How do I determine my size?

Measure the circumference of your head just above your eyebrows and refer to the Bell sizing chart to select the correct size.

Is the liner removable?

Please check your specific production batch details, though most modern Custom 500 models feature comfortable, high-quality fixed or semi-removable interiors.

Troubleshooting

Visor snaps feel loose or do not click

Ensure the snap points are free of debris; use a small amount of silicone lubricant if they are difficult to engage.

Helmet feels loose on the head

Verify the sizing matches your head circumference; ensure the chin strap is tightened correctly to secure the helmet in place.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your helmet, identify the five snaps located along the brow area. Align your chosen shield or visor and press firmly until you hear a click. For daily care, clean the outer shell using a soft cloth and mild, non-abrasive soap. Ensure the inner liner stays dry, and avoid leaving the helmet in extreme heat or direct sunlight for extended periods, as this can degrade the materials. Regularly check the snap integrity to ensure your visor is securely attached before every ride.
