DOT Certified Open-Face Helmet: The Bell Custom 500 meets DOT FMVSS 218 safety standards in a premium open-face design with a heritage going back to the origins of American motorcycle culture. Fiberglass Composite Shell: Premium fiberglass composite construction delivers a lightweight, durable foundation with a smooth, clean surface for exceptional paint and graphic quality. 3-Snap Face Shield Compatible: A traditional 3-snap shield mounting system accepts a wide range of aftermarket accessories for bubble shields, flat shields, and visors. Removable, Washable Interior: The fitted interior padding is fully removable and washable for long-term comfort and hygiene. Retro Open-Face Heritage Styling: The Custom 500's low-profile shell and clean lines capture the golden age of American custom and chopper culture in a modern, safety-certified package. Intermediate Oval Fit: Bell's standard intermediate oval geometry provides a comfortable, secure fit for the broadest range of rider head shapes. The Bell Custom 500 is one of the longest-standing open-face helmets in production — a design that traces its roots to the birth of American custom motorcycle culture and has never stopped being relevant. Its fiberglass composite shell is lightweight and premium in feel, providing the smooth surface that makes solid and graphic Custom 500 colorways look exactly as striking in person as they do in photos. The 3-snap shield system gives you complete freedom to configure the helmet with the visor setup that matches your bike and riding style — from classic bubble shields to flat, iridium, or open. The removable, washable interior maintains comfort through regular riding, and DOT certification confirms the protective credentials back up the heritage design. Whether you're building a period-correct chopper tribute or just want an open-face that genuinely means something in motorcycle culture, the Custom 500 is the authentic choice. At The Helmet Shop, it's been a staple in our lineup for good reason. The Chief Gloss Gray colorway on this Custom 500 is a standout option for riders who want something more distinctive than the standard solid finish. Backed by Bell's 5-year warranty.
