3. Safety Information
Your Sena Outrush helmet is designed for rider safety and complies with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 218 (FMVSS 218). Always ensure the helmet fits correctly and the chin strap is securely fastened before riding. The modular design allows for versatility, but the chin bar should be fully lowered and locked when riding at speed. Regularly inspect your helmet for any signs of damage to the shell, liner, or strap system. Do not modify the helmet in any way, as this can compromise its protective capabilities.
