How to Measure
To find the right helmet size, measure all the way round your head at the widest point. Keep the tape measure above your ears and make sure that the tape measure is not too tight, nor too loose. Take your measurement in centimeters (cm), not inches.
Checking for Best Fit
When a new helmet is first worn, it should actually be slightly tight, with the interior coming into contact with most of the head, but not so restrictive that it causes any pain. There should be no "hot spots" - places where the helmet's interior puts pressure on specific points of the skull or face - but it should not move around freely. With time, a helmet will adjust to match the shape of the rider's head as it is worn and goes through "break-in" and loosens up a little. However, it should never become loose enough to easily turn from side to side.
Put the helmet on - it should be a little tight as it goes on over the head
The helmet should sit on the head evenly with the eye port's upper edge sitting just above the eyebrows and have good peripheral vision available to see side-to-side
Try putting a finger between the helmet interior and the head. If it easily fits, a smaller size should be tried next. Note that some helmet models allow for the cheek pads to be changed out for better fitment, so consider this too when checking for proper sizing
Visor & Nose Cover •The innovative 3D pinlock visor puts the finishing touch to the helmet's look.
•Ensuring excellent visibility and minimising reflective glare, it can be locked into 4 positions.
•A sealing lip that was specially designed for this helmet provides a tight seal when the visor is closed.
•The aggressively-shaped nose cover has an integrated slide regulator to control air intake.
•The nose cover can also be completely removed for cleaning.
Ventilation •An efficient ventilation system is one of the features that makes the difference between a helmet and a comfortable helmet.
•Shoei is a pioneer in this field as a result of many years of experience and numerous tests. The top air inlet at the centre of the shield lets fresh air into the HORNET-DS.Â
•System-independent air inlets at forehead level provide an additional direct air intake.
•Warm and exhaled air is guided to the back of the helmet via air channels and discharged at the neck via the Air Stabilizer 3 and additional vents at the neck. The Air Stabilizer 3 also channels theairflows at the back of the helmet forenhanced stability. This reduces neck fatigue, especially at high speeds.
•Air inlet vents in the chin area and on the top edge of the visor prevent misting.
•The effectiveness of the helmet's interior ventilation has been perfected in many different tests.
Helmet Fit •The inner liner which is adapted to the shape of the head guarantees a safe and comfortable fit.
•The 3D centre pad, the cheek pads and the chin strap cover are detachable and washable. There is a groove for spectacles in the cheek pads. Cheek pads in different sizes can also be used to optimise the helmet's fit. The chin section design allows plenty of space around the mouth and the chin curtain reduces air turbulence in the lower helmet area, which also reduces noise
