What was wrong

Defect

Daytona Helmets International (Daytona) is recalling certain Skull Cap D1, D3 and D6 Helmets in sizes 3XS through 4XL manufactured during May 2015. These helmets may not adequately protect the wearer in the event of a head impact during a motorcycle crash. As such, these helmets fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 218, "Motorcycle Helmets."

Risk

In the event of a crash, the helmet may not adequately protect the wearer, increasing their risk of injury.

Manufacturer remedy

Daytona will notify owners, and dealers will replace the helmets, free of charge. The recall began on June 14, 2017. Owners may contact Daytona customer service at 1-800-452-5745.
