Do not be guided only by aesthetics or by the time of year in which you are going to use it. To choose a helmet, you should think about the routes you take on a motorcycle and, of course, if it complies with the approvals of the Traffic Department of our country.
All those sold within the EU bear a badge with the letter E and the number of the country of approval (Spain is associated with 9), in addition to current European regulations.
When it comes to buying a helmet, we have many options. We can go from the cheapest to ones whose price is close to that of the vehicle itself. Of course, always choosing a helmet that has DGT approval.
And there are not only variants regarding the price, but also with the type of helmet. You can choose a full face helmet, a jet helmet, or a modular helmet. All three options can be good, and we may even prefer one or the other depending on the weather conditions.
Be that as it may, whether you are looking to buy a main helmet or if you want to buy a second helmet, this selection of cheap helmets approved by the DGT is perfect for you.

If you are a fan of the classic, then surely you will love this helmet. It is an open helmet, jet type. It arrives without a visor, although you can add one. You have several models to choose the design you are looking for, although we clearly see the vintage inspiration in all of them.
YEMA YM-627
YEMA YM-627
Jet-type helmets have become a reference because summers in Spain are usually very hot and they are more comfortable to wear than full-face helmets. This Yema helmet is one of the best sellers, it has a large visor for the wind, ideal for winter, and a small visor for summer when it is sunny.
Yolk YM-925
Yolk YM-925
If what you are looking for is a helmet that has many features, but with a contained price, you can bet on the Yema YM-925. It is similar to the previous one, although a little more expensive, and with some additional features. For example, it is a modular helmet. We can use it as a jet helmet, or as an “integral” helmet by lowering the jaw protection.

One of the great dangers of riding a motorcycle is that we take up less space and it is more difficult to see ourselves, especially from a side point of view. This LS2 Airflow helmet stands out for having a fluorescent yellow design and being highly visible, both day and night when the light shines on it.
