Shoei Safety Helmet Corporation prides itself in producing the best helmets that technology will allow, and never before has that been more evident than with the all-new VFX-W. The absolute pinnacle of all off-road helmets, the VFX-W is the result of countless hours of conceptualization, R&D, and testing with the most hard-nosed critics. Drenched with state-of-the-art new features, no stone was left unturned during its development. With safety, performance, comfort, and styling all critical factors, the VFX-W is perfect in every detail, as it ushers in the future of helmet technology with the type of quality that only Shoei is known for. Features and Benefits AIM+ Shell Construction Combines fiberglass with organic fibers that are so strong that they can only be cut with a laser Stronger, lighter shell that will absorb and distribute the force of an impact safely and efficiently Dual Layer EPS Liner Dual layer liner yields enhanced impact absorption by adjusting thickness and density in key areas Inner liner features air channels for efficient cooling Impact-absorbing EPS liner throughout the entire chin bar V-430 Sleek Visor Developed by Shoei’s sponsored riders Lengthened for additional protection from sun and roost Adjustment slot lengthened for greater versatility Plastic hardware is utilized for easier visor breakaway during impact Includes a matte black strip to reduce glare 3D Max-Dry Liner System Polyurethane foam pads are three dimensionally formed for a perfect fit Proprietary synthetic fiber absorbs and exhausts sweat 2 times faster than conventional nylon Liner is removable, adjustable, and washable Emergency Quick Release System (EQRS) Mechanical tabs disengage cheek pads for easy removal by emergency medical personnel Helmet can be removed with minimum load to rider in emergency situations Ventilation System Improved air intakes are located in mouthpiece, forehead, and through scoops directing air into EPS liner Seven exhaust ports dispel hot air from the rear of the helmet Vent openings are covered by wire mesh to prevent dirt from entering liner Sleek Mouthpiece Wire mesh screen helps prevent roost from entering the mouthpiece A strip of AIM+ shell material reinforces mesh screen and helps to reduce chances of larger intrusions Sleek mouthpiece directs cooling air through a removable and washable foam filter
Shoei RF-1000 helmets offer a unique Aero Stabilizing system and high performance materials, in addition to an anti-fogging technology and race replica graphics. Features and Benefits Aerodynamic Shell Design maximized through extensive wind tunnel and rider testing. The Aero Stabilizer dramatically reduces drag and lift coefficients, thus diminishing rider fatigue and increasing performance. Two-Layer EPS Liner System offers unmatched ventilation with internal channels and exhaust ports throughout the helmet. Integrated Upper Air Intake minimizes air turbulence and maximizes air stream in all riding positions. Outlet holes in the Aero Stabilizer allow warm air to be exhausted. The lower air intake provides an additional source of air flow. The neck outlet vent allows for effective air exhaust. Lightweight, Advanced Integrated Matrix Plus (AIM+) equals high performance fiber materials combined with extremely elastic organic fibers to create a shell structure that is ultra lightweight, rigid and resilient. Anti-Fog System features lower air intake provides air flow that helps to diminish shield fog. Removable interior cheek pads available in optional sizes for a custom fit. Chin strap cover can easily be removed to allow for cleaning or replacement. Q.R.B.P. (Quick -Release Base Plate) allows tool-less shield removal. Wide, 3-dimensionally curved shield offers increased peripheral vision and optical clarity. Scratch-resistant coating. 100% protection form harmful UV A & B rays. A pre-set lever can easily lock the shield in place to prevent it from opening unexpectedly. Weight: 3.28 lbs./1490 grams(approx.)
Building on the strongest pedigree in the motorcycle helmet business, Shoei is proud to introduce the all-new RF-1100. Since its 2003 inception, the RF-1000 has enjoyed great success, but that didn’t stop Shoei’s world-class development team from throwing out the molds to build a brand new helmet from scratch. Combining customer and dealer requests with advanced technology, modern testing practices, and 50 years of helmet-building experience, Shoei is pleased to deliver the finest sport-touring helmet that money can buy. The all-new, groundbreaking RF-1100, where aggressive styling meets Shoei?s unrivaled attention to detail, and the evolution of perfection is once again met. Features and Benefits Q.R.S.A. (Quick Release Self-Adjusting) Base Plate System Need to change from clear to tint? Shoei?s Quick Release Self-Adjusting (QRSA) base plate system includes a locking mechanism that allows you to do just that in a snap. No tools, no hassle, no problems Building on the successful QRBP, the QRSA maintains its predecessor’s easy-to-use features, like the simple shield release and attachment, and shield preset lever, but offers a significant advantage. Shoei’s patented new spring loaded technology featured in the QRSA eliminates the need to adjust base plates for proper sealing. Every time the shield is lowered, the spring-loaded base plates pull the shield back to contact the window beading evenly, ensuring a wind and waterproof seal CW-1 Shield The all-new CW-1 shield is both wider and taller than the CX-IV that it replaces. In addition, the CW-1 shield protects Shoei riders from 99% of the sun’s damaging UVA and UVB rays, and the three-dimensional injection-molding process ensures distortion free vision Ability to work in conjunction with Shoei’s optional Pinlock system to deliver fog-free vision in even the most challenging conditions. The new CW-1 Pinlock lens is larger, and offers fog-free viewing to the very top of the helmet’s larger eye port AIM+ Shell Construction (Snell M2010 Approved) Shoei’s proprietary AIM+ technology combines fiberglass with organic fibers that are so strong they can only be cut with a laser. The end result is a stronger, lighter shell that will absorb and distribute the force of an impact safely and efficiently 5 Shell Sizes While some of Shoei’s competitors rely on foam padding for fitting a wide range of customers, Shoei offers an industry-leading five shell sizes to ensure a custom fit for heads between the sizes of XS-2XL Shell-Integrated Spoiler This new technology has allowed Shoei to incorporate the aerodynamic advantages of a spoiler into the shell of the helmet, while maintaining consistent shell thickness to guarantee proper strength and weight This shell-integrated spoiler works to reduce lift during high-speed riding, just like the spoiler on a sports car Variable Ventilation System Three intake and six exhaust vents in total Better ventilation and aerodynamic performance is achieved by sep

One of the fastest growing segments of the motorcycling family over the past few years has been the dual sport market. As legal off-road riding areas become harder and harder to find, dual sport riding has been filling the gap for many riders that want the freedom and excitement of riding in the dirt without the headaches of loading their bikes in a truck and driving for hours to find legal off-highway riding areas. With a dual sport bike, any dirt road that a motorcyclist spots in their travels suddenly becomes an opportunity for adventure. Up until now, the dual sport rider was stuck with two options. Most chose to wear an off-road helmet with goggles and fight with a visor that is constantly buffeting in the wind while enduring all the road noise and wind entering the front of the helmet. A few others would endure the stares of other motorists as well as the blinding glare of the sun as they rode with a street helmet aboard their dual sport bikes. Shoei has changed all of this with the introduction of their dual sport specific helmet, the Hornet-DS. Features and Benefits Semi-Dual EPS Liner Ventilation System. 3D Max Dry Liner System. Fully Removable / Replaceable Interior. Cheek Pad Channels For Eyeglasses. Upper Air Intake. Visor Air Intake. Lower Air Intake. Face Shield Defogging Vent. Chin Curtain. Cross Vortex Rear Exhaust Vent. Neck Outlet Vent. Aerodynamic Visor. 3 Dimensionally curved C-49 Shield. Snell M2005 / DOT Approved.
