DMD Retro helmets are compact ECE 22.06 open-face helmets with a deliberately simple 1970s jet shape. Moto Central's collection contains 46 complete helmets, ranging from restrained solid colours to expressive graphic finishes. It does not contain SeventyFive, Racer or other DMD full-face models, despite the outdated description previously shown here.
Every product in this collection is a complete DMD Retro open-face helmet. The range includes straightforward colours such as Matt Black, Solid White, Cream and Deep Blue, alongside designs including Candy, Tigre, Woodstock, Goodwood, Rainbow, Fuoco, Star Orange and Stars. Availability by size varies between individual products, so choose the finish first and then check the live size options.
The Retro is made from fibreglass and uses three external shell sizes across the size range. DMD quotes an approximate weight of 900g with a tolerance of 50g.
Three buttons integrated into the shell allow a compatible visor or peak to be fitted. Check the accessory product for exact Retro compatibility before ordering.
The current Retro platform is approved to ECE 22.06, with a fully removable, washable interior and a Double D-ring retention strap.
Eye protection is still important. If you add a visor or goggles, make sure they fit the shell correctly, do not interfere with the helmet seal or strap, and meet the standards required for UK road use. Product images may show styling details that are not separate included accessories, so check each listing carefully.
Measure horizontally around the widest part of the head and compare the result with the size information on the selected product. A correct fit feels evenly firm around the crown without a painful pressure point. With the Double D-ring strap fastened, the helmet should resist rolling forwards and should not rotate independently of the head.
Three shell sizes help keep the external proportions closer to the internal size, but shell size does not determine head shape. Try the helmet with any glasses, visor or goggles you intend to use and check temple pressure, peripheral vision and strap position. Our motorcycle helmet sizing guide explains the process in more detail.
DMD advises using warm water, mild soap and a soft cloth or sponge on the shell. Avoid solvents, paint and aggressive heat. Hand clean the removable interior carefully and let every component dry fully at room temperature before refitting it. Replace the helmet after a significant impact, even when obvious exterior damage is limited.
Moto Central keeps all 46 live Retro finishes together so riders can compare graphics and sizes without mixing them with DMD's full-face families. Our showroom team can help assess the fit, explain the limitations of open-face coverage and compare alternative DMD helmets.
Yes. The current DMD Retro collection contains complete open-face helmets rather than liners, visors or other service parts.
The shell has studs for compatible accessories, but supplied items can vary. Check the individual product listing and do not assume a visor or peak is included.
