A modular flip-up motorcycle helmet with ECE 22.06 approval combines the shape of a system helmet with a hinged chin bar. That can be useful for commuting, refuelling or taking a short break. However, a helmet isn’t automatically right for your needs just because it uses the same marketing terms as other models. Fit, visor design and the actual certification details all deserve careful attention.
A matte titanium or black motorcycle helmet may look smart, but its colour and finish say nothing about how well it fits. A helmet that’s too loose may shift while you’re riding, while one that’s too tight can become uncomfortable on longer journeys.
First, measure around your head with a flexible tape measure, about one centimetre above your eyebrows and around the widest part of your head. Compare the measurement with the size chart for the specific model. The MY 935 and MY 936 don’t use exactly the same size range.
A motorcycle helmet with a dual visor typically has a clear outer visor and an internal sun visor. That doesn’t mean it comes with a Bluetooth intercom or speakers. According to the product description, the MY 935 has space beneath the chin lining for a Bluetooth headset. The communication device itself isn’t listed among the included items.
When buying, check whether you’re getting just a motorcycle helmet that’s Bluetooth-ready or whether you also need a complete communication system.
According to MY’s product description, the MY 935 is designed with an ABS outer shell, EPS inner lining and a dual visor that, according to the brand’s own product information, blocks 99% of UV radiation. Treat this as a product specification from the brand, not as a general guarantee for every riding situation.
Pay particular attention to the official approval marking, the information on the product and the manufacturer’s instructions. A certification claim on a retailer’s website is useful, but when your helmet arrives, also check that it and its documentation match the listing.
ECE R 22.06 is the relevant European type approval listed for these models. Don’t just look for “ECE 22.06” in the title; check the marking on the helmet and the information supplied with it too. An ECE R 22.06 motorcycle helmet is intended for use on public roads in accordance with the applicable regulations. Always follow Dutch traffic rules and the manufacturer’s instructions.
A flip-up model can be used closed as a full-face motorcycle helmet. Check the manual to find out how the chin bar may be used while riding. The moving design makes a modular helmet practical, but you’ll also need to close it carefully and check it before setting off.
According to the technical specifications, the MY models listed have a hard ABS shell, an oval shape and a buckle fastening. ABS is a commonly used plastic for helmet shells. The EPS layer inside is designed to form part of the impact-absorbing construction, but a good fit is just as important for a stable feel.
The sizes vary by model:
As the size ranges differ, the “same size” won’t always give you the same fit. The helmet should fit snugly without creating pressure points. Adjust the strap according to the manual. The product information, for example, suggests that when the strap is fastened, you should be able to fit about two fingers between it and your chin.
An integrated sun visor is useful in low sun and changing light conditions. The outer visor remains in place to protect you from wind and rain. Check that the visor moves smoothly and stays securely in both its highest and lowest positions.
The MY 936 is listed as having a removable, washable lining, making regular maintenance easier. Don’t use harsh cleaning products on visors. Follow the care instructions to help prevent scratches and damage to the coating.
Why it suits this type of rider: This model is designed for everyday use and features a dual visor, a matte finish and size S for head circumferences of 55–56 cm, according to the product information.
The specifications list ECE R 22.06 approval, an ABS shell, an EPS inner layer and the size range separately. Bluetooth compatibility is listed as a provision, not as a system included with the helmet.
ECE R 22.06 according to the product information; dual visor; space provided for an intercom headset.
Why it suits this type of rider: The MY 936 is a good choice for riders who regularly switch between bright sunshine and overcast conditions, and who value a removable lining.
The sun visor is described as a separate feature. The easy-care lining and the different head sizes are also listed, so you don’t have to judge the helmet by its appearance alone.

Why it suits this type of rider: According to the size chart provided, this version is designed for riders with a head circumference of 61–62 cm. It could suit longer commutes or touring, for example.

We’ve put together a complete, up-to-date list of products that meet these strict selection criteria and the applicable European safety regulations.
The models listed are described in the product information as suitable for motorcycling and as unisex. The product details state that they can be used with motorcycles, scooters and mopeds. Always check the official marking, fit and Dutch regulations before using the helmet.
Measure your head circumference with a fabric tape measure and compare the result with the chart for your chosen model. According to the product information, size XL for the MY 935 is 61–62 cm. For the MY 936, XL is listed as 60–61 cm. Fasten the strap according to the manual and check that the helmet stays firmly in place without painful pressure points.
Clean the outer shell and visors with a soft cloth and a suitable mild cleaner. Let the lining dry completely before using the helmet. The MY 936 is listed as having a removable, washable lining. Replace your helmet after a hard impact, or if any parts, the fastening or the visor are visibly damaged.
