SIMPSON is the original bad-ass helmet brand, offering a unique style and attitude that harks back to the original BANDIT lid, which tore up the drag strips of America during the late 70s.
The VENOM packages all that attitude in a modern, high-tech motorcycle protection product which comfortably exceeds the requirements of the ECE 22.06 regulation.
It also offers the user-friendly features riders need for everyday use, all day – not just 10 seconds at full throttle!

Few helmets have made such a mark on the bike world as the Simpson Bandit. First launched in the late 1970s, the original Bandit was made in Texas by Bill Simpson and was actually a NASCAR helmet design that was technically illegal in Britain. It was a super-high quality lid, but since it was built for American car racing, it didn’t comply with UK motorcycle helmet rules.
Now riders can re-create their biking youth, with the latest Simpson bike helmet – the Venom is totally compliant with the new ECE 22-06 regulations, making them fully road legal to wear on a bike. That hasn’t affected their overall design though – the Simpson style is still clear to see.
The standard Venom boasts the very latest composite Maxx-3C shell material, with fully removable, washable lining, an advanced venting and hot-air exhaust system, inner sun visor, and a quick-release Pinlock MaxVision equipped visor. A MaxVision insert is included in the box.
Produced in three shell sizes, with fittings from XS to XXXL.
