Approved DOT German Motorcycle Helmets: Unique And Retro
There are different things that people look for in a motorcycle helmet. Protection, which is the only reason people wear a motorcycle helmet in the first place, often comes second to style and appearance especially where the stereotypical biker is concerned. The helmet should not only protect ones head from the impact of a motorcycle crash, it has to make the biker look cool at the same time.
To this end, there are many cool styles and designs of motorcycle helmets on the market and one of the coolest is the approved DOT German motorcycle helmet, a design that recalls the unique shape and design of the Stahlhelm helmets worn by soldiers in the German military during the Second World War.
The appearance of the approved DOT German style motorcycle helmet may be offensive to some, but the populace should understand that the German style helmet is popular with bikers because it is both unique and retro at the same time and is not meant to affiliate the particular biker — or bikers in general — with Nazism.
Instead, the German style helmet is intended to serve a fashionable purpose for the biker while serving the practical purpose of providing protective gear for the bikers head.
In addition to the WWII German soldiers helmet design, approved DOT German motorcycle helmets are available in a throwback to the First World War as well; a Kaiser Wilhelm helmet complete with a metallic spike on top. The German motorcycle helmet with spike ornamentation had a little trouble gaining DOT approval. Obviously, the spike could easily become a deadly projectile if the helmet is thrown from the biker's head during a crash.
But, the German motorcycle helmet with spike managed to get through and is sometimes seen atop the heads of bikers at various motorcycle rallies and biker events such as the infamous River Run, which takes place in Laughlin, Nevada each spring.
The DOT that we're referring to is the United States Department of Transportation, the governing body that has established standards in protection that a legal motorcycle helmet must meet.
An approved DOT German motorcycle helmet is one which the manufacturer self-certifies as meeting minimum impact-resistance, retention, and energy-absorption specifications as set by the DOT, though the DOT does do random testing of its own to monitor compliance.
Purchasing an approved DOT German motorcycle helmet can be tricky. These are specialty items and are not going to be found just anywhere, In many cases the biker will need to visit a specialty shop or place an online order to get a German style motorcycle helmet.
No one buys an approved DOT German motorcycle helmet because they hope to have the same helmet as every other biker on the road, after all. They buy them to have a unique helmet that few other bikers in their area will be wearing. So, for a unique look in motorcycle headwear, an approved DOT German style motorcycle helmet could be the way to go.
