Bell Moto-3 Helmet

The original that started it all. When Moto-3 first appeared in the late ’70s, motorcycling was shifting—motocross and desert racing were exploding, riders needed real protection in the dirt, and gear design moved from “looks fast” to “works hard.” The extended chin bar, the generous eyeport for goggles, the clean lines—this wasn’t styling. It was function made honest.

That is why the Moto-3 became an icon. It set the template: purposeful ventilation, a strong composite shell, and a silhouette that balanced protection with freedom of movement. Decades later, it remains what it always was—sporty, simple, and ready for the grit—now refined with modern safety standards and production quality.

Today’s Moto-3 keeps the soul of the original and tightens the details. The fiberglass composite shell is light yet stout, the EPS-lined chin bar is there for a reason, and the solid-color versions use the original-style terrycloth liner—removable and washable—because some ideas were right the first time.
