A modular motorcycle helmet with sun visor ECE 22.06 combines the coverage of a full-face helmet with the convenience of a flip-up chin bar and an internal sun visor. It’s practical for commuting, long rides and changeable weather. However, an appealing product page can hide important details. So don’t just look at the colour or price: check the certification, fit, visor design and maintenance requirements.
A motorcycle helmet may have “ECE” in the title without the product information making clear which standard it meets. Look specifically for ECE R 22.06 or ECE 22.06. This standard relates to helmet approval. Also check that the helmet has the appropriate approval label and that the seller provides clear information.
The product information lists the MY 935 and MY 936 as helmets approved to ECE R 22.06. That’s useful information, but it doesn’t replace checking the physical label, the fit and the condition of the helmet when it arrives.
With a motorcycle helmet with integrated sun visor, the tinted visor sits inside the outer shell. A dual-visor motorcycle helmet may have both a clear outer visor and an internal sun visor. This difference affects how you use the helmet in bright light.
According to the product description, the MY 936 has an integrated internal sun visor. The MY 935 is described as having a dual visor and a claimed 99% UV blockage. As this is a brand or product claim, treat this figure as information from the brand’s product description, not as a general guarantee for every riding situation.
A helmet that feels loose when you first try it on may shift while you’re riding. A helmet that’s too tight can become uncomfortable. Measure your head circumference with a soft tape measure, just above your eyebrows and around the widest part of the back of your head.
Size charts vary by model:
So a size range from S to XXL doesn’t mean both models fit the same head circumference. Check the chart for the variant you’ve chosen.
For everyday use on Dutch roads, a suitable, approved helmet is an important starting point. Look for a clear mention of ECE R 22.06 and check the approval label when it arrives. Certification doesn’t mean that every helmet will automatically fit well; size and shape still matter.
According to the product details, the helmets listed have an oval shape, a hard shell and a buckle fastening. The shell is made from ABS, or acrylonitrile butadiene styrene. The description says the helmet uses high-density EPS as an energy-absorbing lining. These product specifications are easy to check and give you more to go on than general claims such as “extra safe”.
Choose an integrated sun visor if you want to switch quickly between clear and tinted vision, for example when the sun is low during your commute. With a dual visor, it’s worth checking how the inner visor is operated and whether the clear outer visor is easy to clean.
Don’t automatically use a tinted visor in dark conditions. Also check whether the protective film needs to be removed before first use. The MY 935 product information says that the film needs to be removed from both the main visor and the sun visor.
A motorcycle helmet with removable lining is easier to keep clean. The MY 936 product information lists a removable, washable inner lining. The MY 935 is described as having a comfortable inner lining, as well as a reserved space beneath the chin pads for a Bluetooth intercom.
Before buying, check that your intercom will physically fit. “Intercom-ready” doesn’t always mean an intercom is included. These models don’t include batteries, and an English-language manual is listed.
Why it suits this rider: This matte black motorcycle helmet offers a straightforward combination of ECE R 22.06, an internal sun visor and size M for a head circumference of 57–58 cm.
The size, shell shape, fastening and certification details are clearly stated. That means you don’t have to rely on general marketing language alone.

Why it suits this rider: This variant is designed for a head circumference of 63–64 cm and suits riders who need a larger size for everyday or extended use.

We’ve put together a complete, up-to-date list of products that meet these strict selection criteria and the current European safety regulations.
Use a soft tape measure and measure horizontally around your head, just above your eyebrows and across the widest part of the back of your head. Compare the result with the size chart for the exact model you’ve chosen. Adjust the chin strap so it feels secure without digging in; according to the product information, there should be room for about two fingers between the strap and your chin.
Its lifespan depends on factors such as how often you use it, how it’s stored, UV exposure and any impact. Replace a helmet after a collision or if it has visible damage. Even without an accident, the inner lining, fastening and visor can wear out. So check the EPS layer, chin strap, hinges and visors regularly. A lining that can be cleaned helps with maintenance, but it doesn’t make an old helmet suitable for unlimited use.
Maintenance mainly involves cleaning the outer shell, visors and inner lining in accordance with the manual. Don’t use harsh products that could damage the plastic or visor coatings. An internal sun visor may have extra components that need to be operated carefully. If you use the helmet frequently, it’s a good idea to check the fastening, hinge and operation of both visors regularly.
