Silverstone Associates is recalling 620 Ride Eazy Trimless helmets in sizes S, M, L, XL, and XXL.
The helmets may not adequately protect the wearer in the event of a head impact during a motorcycle crash, thereby failing to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 218, "Motorcycle Helmets."
A helmet that fails to meet the safety requirements can increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash.
What to do
Silverstone will notify owners and will provide a replacement half helmet, free of charge.
The recall is expected to begin December 1, 2017.
Owners may contact Silverstone customer service at 1-410-696-7180.
