Check For Adequate Vision Always check for adequate vision. For example, when helmets are used in conjunction with goggles or other eye coverings, vision restrictions can occur. Make sure your motorcycle is equipped with effective mirrors, and use them for peripheral vision to enhance your direct vision of traffic and other riding hazards.
6. Storage Torc helmets require little special care. However, it is a good idea to protect your helmet from damage if it is to be stored for a long period of time. Helmets should be stored in a cool, dry place. Exposure to temperatures in excess of 130 degrees F (50C) can cause damage, resulting in a loss of protection.
