The Daytona Cruiser with Lightning graphics is a DOT 3/4 open face helmet built for riders who want real certified protection in a slim, vintage shell. A glossy white finish, a bold yellow lightning bolt, and retro pinstripes over the top give it a classic drag strip look that stands out on any cruiser.
The Smallest DOT 3/4 Shell Open Face Helmet Ever Made
Most DOT open face helmets make your head look twice its size. The Daytona Cruiser solves that. Its new slim line design hugs your head and eliminates the mushroom look, and with 3 different shell sizes you get a proportionate fit whether you wear XS or 2XL. It meets and exceeds DOT FMVSS 218 safety standards, so the low profile never comes at the cost of real protection.
Why Riders Trust Daytona Helmets
Daytona Helmets is a genuine American helmet brand that has specialized in low profile DOT helmets for decades. Every Cruiser is finished in clear lacquer for a deep gloss, riveted with nickel plated rolled tubular steel hardware, and fitted with a custom formed interior for all day comfort. Each graphic is custom designed and may vary slightly in color or composition, which makes every lid a little bit yours.
Comfort and Fit
The moisture wicking fabric liner keeps your head cooler and drier on long summer rides. Daytona helmets run true to size with a snug, slim profile. Measure around your head about one inch above your eyebrows and match it to the size chart. The reinforced strap retention system locks down with a quick release buckle you can open with one finger at the gas station and forget on the highway.
Ready for Visors, Goggles, and Bluetooth
A removable, snap on gloss black bubble visor is included in the box, and the built in goggle strap keeps your riding goggles secure at speed. The helmet is also Bluetooth compatible, so you can run your favorite communication system for music and calls.

Rider Questions, Answered
Is this Daytona Cruiser helmet DOT approved?
Yes. The Daytona Cruiser meets and exceeds DOT FMVSS 218 safety standards. It is a genuine certified helmet from Daytona Helmets, a trusted American brand, not a novelty lid.
Will it give me a mushroom head look?
No. The Cruiser is the smallest DOT approved 3/4 shell helmet ever made. Daytona builds it in 3 different shell sizes, so you get a slim, proportionate profile instead of the oversized mushroom look.
How do I pick the right size?
Measure around your head about one inch above the eyebrows and match it to the size chart. Daytona helmets run true to size with a snug, low profile fit. If you are between sizes, most riders choose the smaller size since the liner breaks in.
Does it come with the bubble visor?
Yes. Every helmet includes the removable, snap on gloss black bubble visor shown in the photos, plus a free head wrap and a cloth drawstring storage bag.
Can I ride with goggles or a different shield?
Yes. The helmet has a built in goggle strap to keep your goggles secure, and the snap on visor pops off with the snaps so you can swap in other standard snap on visors or shields.
Is it comfortable in hot weather?
Yes. The interior uses a moisture wicking fabric liner that keeps your head cooler and drier, and the open face design gives you plenty of airflow on warm rides.
Is this helmet Bluetooth compatible?
Yes. The Cruiser is Bluetooth compatible, so you can pair it with common helmet communication systems for music, calls, and rider to rider chat.
How secure is the strap?
The reinforced strap retention system uses nickel plated rolled tubular steel rivets and a quick release lock you can open with one finger, so it stays put on the road and comes off easily at the stop.
What if it does not fit me?
You are covered by our 30 day guarantee. If the fit is not right, contact us and we will help you exchange it for the correct size or return it.
How long does shipping take?
Orders ship free within the USA and typically arrive within a few business days. Shipping outside the USA is available and may cost additional shipping fees.
