How to Put a Helmet Cover On

Motorcycle helmets can be customized to show the driver's personality.

Helmet covers provide a way for motorcycle riders to customize their appearance and show their personality while riding their bike. Motorcycle helmet covers are available in a variety of shapes and colors and may also feature external details such as mohawks or Viking horns. Installing cover on a motorcycle helmet should be a fairly simple process.

Things You'll Need

• Helmet

Instructions

1. Set the motorcycle helmet down on a flat, level surface, such as a table. Arrange the helmet cover so that you know which end is the front and which end is the back.

2. Grasp the helmet cover firmly in both hands and stretch it over the top, starting from the front of th helmet and working your way back. The front of the helmet cover should be aligned with the front of the helmet and the back of the cover should be facing the back of the helmet. Motorcycle helmet covers are stretchy and intended to be removed and replaced, so they should have no problem sliding on and off the helmet with a bit of stretching.

3. Pull the helmet cover down over helmet and anchor bottom of the cover to the bottom of the helmet. Make sure it does not obscure your visibility. Most covers simply feature an elastic band that can be tucked underneath the bottom edge of the helmet, but some also feature fasteners or clasps. If your helmet cover features any type of fastener or clasp, follow the manufacturer's instructions to attach it properly to your specific helmet.

Tips & Warnings

• Do not use the helmet cover if it obscures your visibility in any way.
