turns out to be the quietest most comfortable , AND COOLEST HELMET of any i have owned (manyof all types) great job Bell!

I tried this helmet on in the store, and loved it, but, they didn't have the color I wanted. When I got home, I ordered the color I wanted,(Orangeflake) and now I'm happy. It's one of the few DOT helmets that don't make me look like "Marvin the Martian" and it actually feels nice on my head. A good idea would be for Bell to make removable foam on the inside, so that you can "customize" your fit.

man...just got my 500 today...all i can say is it is about f'ing time...great product...thanks for paying attention to what people want

great comfy lid, protects hearing at highway speed, very comfortable

Awesome helmet, great fit. I am a size small and tried on many helmets that make me look ridiculous, but the 500 fits great is slim and very comfortable. Great looking helmet. Looking to buy a different design soon. Definitely recommend this helmet.

once the helmet breaks in fits like a glove... don't even know i'm wearin' it. a bad ass workin' man's helmet.

Searched around, and this is the only lid that really satisfied me visually and technically. Must admit that it's even comfortable while riding. I wear glasses and with them the helmet's fine. Fit is very realistic to size on label. Bought the gloss black to go with my Jet black Speed Triple. Oh, by the way, I just bought the Skratch Deluxe LTD Design. Bell has really done a fine job.

I have tried on many different open face and bell is by far the most comfortable in my opinion. Don't order based off sizing online, you have to actually go try the helmets on to see what size fits you best. They should feel real snug brand new because they will wear in a bit after use. I have had mine about a year now and it is wore in. Quality is great, keep it in the helmet bag they give you and it will last forever, mine still looks brand new! great helmet I would highly recommend this...

Used to ride flat track many moons ago, with a flat shield. This is one cool and authentic helmet. Great fit and top quality construction.

FINALLY! a cool open-face that sits right on the head. Scratch's design is rad but had to roll with the "Speed Soul" as I am into old bikes and vintage tattoo's. The fit and finish of these are amazing and I might have to buck-up and get Scratch's design also. Thanks!!! and keep up the great work.

Just got this helmet last weekend, ridden about 500 miles. This is a well made, great fitting helmet. My head measures at 23cm, the large fits perfectly, snug but not too tight. I got both the smoke and clear Bell face shields, they work great, minimal noise. I have worn a novelty Beanie for years and never felt comfortable in traffic. This helmet is also narrow in profile so you dont look like a martian either. Highly recommend.
