Why Choose a Modular Motorcycle Helmet?
A modular helmet, also called a flip-up helmet, gives you the coverage of a full face helmet with a chin bar that lifts up when you need it. That makes it one of the most practical helmet styles for touring riders, commuters and anyone who stops often.
- Flip the chin bar up to talk, drink or pay at a fuel stop without removing your helmet.
- Easier to put on and take off, which is especially helpful for riders who wear glasses.
- Full face protection for highway riding when the chin bar is closed and locked.
- A good platform for Bluetooth communication systems on longer rides.

Modular vs Full Face Helmets
A full face helmet has a fixed chin bar, which usually makes it slightly lighter and quieter. A modular adds convenience at stops. For a detailed comparison, read modular vs full face vs open face helmets.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I ride with the chin bar open?
Unless a helmet is specifically certified for riding in the open position, keep the chin bar closed and locked while riding. Open it only when stopped or moving very slowly.
Are modular helmets good for riders who wear glasses?
Yes. Lifting the chin bar makes it much easier to put the helmet on without knocking your glasses, and the Daytona C6 is designed to be eyeglass compatible.
Do modular helmets work with Bluetooth?
The Daytona C6 is Bluetooth compatible, so you can add a communication system for music, navigation and rider-to-rider calls.
