motorsport helmets. The company\u2019s products are all handmade and designed with care to be both functional and eye-catching.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Shoei is also backed by some of the fastest motocross riders in the sport such as Josh Grant and Marc Marquez.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">In 2020, Shoei was rated a 4.15\/5 for safety, which put it in third place out of all helmet brands on the market last year. Additionally, two of Shoei\u2019s newer products, the Ryd and X-Spirit III, scored a perfect 5\/5 for safety.<\/p>\n<p><span><img alt=\"\" data-id=\"6671\" width=\"500\" data-init-width=\"1000\" height=\"180\" data-init-height=\"360\" title=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/speedymoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/logo-SHOEI.jpg\" data-width=\"500\" data-height=\"180\" style=\"\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\">Review of the Best Shoei Helmets<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Now that you know more about the Shoei brand, let\u2019s get right into their top helmets.

Users are happy with spending extra money on the GT-Air II. However, many reviewers said the visor isn\u2019t very easy to use while on the road.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Why it Stands Out to Us<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The GT-Air II is one of the highest-quality helmets on the market right now. The clear Bluetooth integration system, easy-to-use ratchet chin strap, and potentially lifesaving emergency quick-release system (EQRS) make this product well worth the investment.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Bottom Line<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">You get what you pay for with this helmet. The GT-Air II has a high price point, but it delivers excellent quality and peace of mind.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Runner-up:<\/strong>Shoei J\u00b7O Carburetor<\/h3>\n<p><span><img alt=\"\" data-id=\"6115\" width=\"492\" data-init-width=\"750\" height=\"492\" data-init-height=\"750\" title=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/speedymoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/shoei_jo_carburetor_helmet_matte_black_grey_750x750.jpg\" data-width=\"492\" data-height=\"492\" style=\"\" data-link-wrap=\"true\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>PROS<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"\">Modern look thanks to a sleek and stylish design<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">Removable cheek pads compatible with eyeglasses<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">Easy-to-use dropdown sun visor can be adjusted in three positions<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">Dual EPS liner provides better ventilation and more comfort than other models<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">Ultra-lightweight and strong outer shell for maximum resilience and protection<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>CONS<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"\">Loud on the road<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">Not fully protected from exhaust and dust<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>What Recent Buyers Report<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The J-O Carburetor\u2019s style is its most commonly loved attribute. Its fit and comfortability have also been lauded. Some customers believe it\u2019s on the louder end, so you may want to consider earplugs when riding long distances.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Why it Stands Out to Us<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">This helmet is equipped with many great features if you\u2019re looking for a retro \u00be shell. The J-O Carburetor is also moderately priced when compared to other Shoei products. Its advanced integrated matrix (AIM) shell keeps riders comfortable and safe, while the ventilation keeps you both cool and dry on warm days. Additionally, not many helmets offer a dropdown visor that can be adjusted in three different positions.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Bottom Line<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The J-O Carburetor is one of the most comfortable and stylish \u00be helmets on the market. Unless you mind a little noise on the road, we can\u2019t say anything but good things about this helmet.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Best for the Money:<\/strong>Shoei Hornet X2<\/h3>\n<p><span><img alt=\"\" data-id=\"6116\" width=\"500\" data-init-width=\"750\" height=\"500\" data-init-height=\"750\" title=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/speedymoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/shoei_hornet_x2_adventure_helmet_750x750.jpg\" data-width=\"500\" data-height=\"500\" style=\"\" data-link-wrap=\"true\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>PROS<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"\">Wide shield for a greater range of vision<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">The lightest and strongest of Shoei\u2019s models<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">Suitable for all weather and riding conditions<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">Dual-sport helmet is ideal for both on- and off-road performance<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">Chin bar is designed for maximum air ventilation on long drives or heavy breathing on the trail<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>CONS<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"\">Could use better ventilation<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">Difficulties with connecting to Bluetooth<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>What Recent Buyers Report<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Reviewers believe the Hornet X2 is well worth the money. They love the ventilated visor aerodynamics, which allows wind to pass through quietly when riding at fast speeds. The lack of airflow within the helmet has been cited as the main downside.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Why it Stands Out to Us<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">It\u2019s no easy feat to make a helmet that\u2019s great on both the highway and trail. The Hornet X2 is designed to withstand every element, from rain and snow to dirt and mud. This model\u2019s uninhibited range of vision is unbeatable compared to other helmets. You can see everything around you while either on- or off-road. The incredible aerodynamic shell also cancels out noise wherever you\u2019re riding. Plus, it comes with EQRS, which is a necessary safety feature for dual-sport helmets.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Bottom Line<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The incredible quality that you get with this dual-sport model is why it&#8217;s a great value. This helmet\u2019s versatility makes it a great choice for riders who prefer the safety of full-face helmets.<\/p>\n<div class=\"hvacacta-table__column-button\">\r\n    <a href=\"#see-table-button\" class=\"hvacacta-table__button\">See Comparison Table \u2192<\/a>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>\r\n    document.querySelectorAll('a[href^=\"#see-table-button\"]').forEach((anchor) => {\r\n    anchor.addEventListener('click', function (e) {\r\n    e.preventDefault()\r\n\r\n    document.querySelector('.hvattbl2-container').scrollIntoView({\r\n    behavior: 'smooth',\r\n    })\r\n    })\r\n    })\r\n<\/script>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Shoei RF SR Review:<\/strong>Shoei RF-SR<\/h3>\n<p><span><img alt=\"\" data-id=\"6117\" width=\"500\" data-init-width=\"750\" height=\"500\" data-init-height=\"750\" title=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/speedymoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/shoei_rfsr_helmet_solid_750x750.jpg\" data-width=\"500\" data-height=\"500\" style=\"\" data-link-wrap=\"true\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>PROS<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"\">AIM shell is extremely lightweight and resilient<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">Fog-resistant lens for safer riding experience<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">The shell minimizes turbulence and neck strain<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">Air-tight seal designed to reduce noise and wind<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">Excellent ventilation system with both upper and lower vents<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>CONS<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"\">Relatively small fit<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">Not suitable for all riders<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>What Recent Buyers Report<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">There are many positive reviews about the <a href=\"https:\/\/speedymoto.com\/motorcycles\/helmets\/shoei\/rf-sr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">RF-SR<\/a>. Many mention that it\u2019s much more comfortable and quieter than other helmets on the market. The shield system has also received many compliments. Some buyers report that the helmet fits very well, but it\u2019s tighter than other models.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Why it Stands Out to Us<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The RF-SR effectively reduces wind and noise despite its numerous vents. The helmet\u2019s excellent soundproofing is primarily due to the CWR-1 shield and QR-E closure system. It\u2019s also quite stylish with its sleek black matte finish. Additionally, this model is made of lightweight carbon and doesn\u2019t create excess head pressure. Plus, less turbulence and neck strain create a smoother riding experience.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Bottom Line<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">If you\u2019ve been searching for a lightweight full-face helmet, look no further than the RF-SR. It may be more expensive than other brands, but this model\u2019s soundproofing and safety are worth the price.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Shoei RF-1200 Review:<\/strong>Shoei RF-1200<\/h3>\n<p><span><img alt=\"\" data-id=\"6118\" width=\"500\" data-init-width=\"750\" height=\"500\" data-init-height=\"750\" title=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/speedymoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/shoei_rf1200_helmet_solid_black_750x750.jpg\" data-width=\"500\" data-height=\"500\" style=\"\" data-link-wrap=\"true\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>PROS<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"\">Exceptional ventilation system<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">Carries the Snell certification, ensuring safety and performance<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">The shell is barely noticeable due to its lightweight and aerodynamic nature<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">Cheek pads are designed to improve the range of motion in the head and neck<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">Rigid CWR-1 Pinlock shield prevents wind pressure even when traveling at high speeds<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>CONS<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"\">More suited for sportbike riders<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">Not suitable for oval-shaped heads<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>What Recent Buyers Report<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The RF-1200 is known for its comfortable fit. A few users even commented that this helmet saved their lives during a crash. However, some reviewers believe it\u2019s best suited to riders with round heads.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Why it Stands Out to Us<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">This premium full-face helmet\u2019s additional features make it a great find. It\u2019s more affordable than some Shoei models and it doesn\u2019t disappoint. The pin-lock shield reduces noise thanks to the thicker padding on the cheek guards and sides of the helmet, and the airflow is amazing. Plus, the cheek pads are easily removable with the EQRS system in the event of an emergency.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Bottom Line<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The RF-1200 has everything you would expect from a full-face helmet, and more. Although it can work for any style of rider, this model gives you better visibility with your head tucked down. So, if you\u2019re a sportbike rider with a round head shape, this might be a good option for you.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Shoei Neotec II Review:<\/strong>Shoei Neotec 2<\/h3>\n<p><span><img alt=\"\" data-id=\"6119\" width=\"476\" data-init-width=\"750\" height=\"476\" data-init-height=\"750\" title=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/speedymoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/shoei_neotec2_helmet_750x750.jpg\" data-width=\"476\" data-height=\"476\" style=\"\" data-link-wrap=\"true\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>PROS<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"\">Quieter than many other modular models<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">Comes with an optional headset integration system<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">Excellent aerodynamic capabilities to ensure a smoother ride<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">Fog-resistant liner allows you to drive in any weather condition<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">Micro-ratcheting chin strap makes the helmet easy to remove and secure<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>CONS<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"\">High price point<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"\">Not as quiet as many full-face models<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>What Recent Buyers Report<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Many buyers say the Neotec 2 is one of the best helmets they\u2019ve ever owned.

However, others think it could be quieter when they\u2019re traveling at high speeds.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Why it Stands Out to Us<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">This modular helmet features the safety of a full-face model with all of the benefits of an open-face helmet. You can easily flip up the shield, making it a good choice for both quick commutes and long road trips. We also love that it can integrate with the Sena SRL communication system. You can connect to music, GPS, or other rides from up to a mile away with excellent sound quality. Despite the helmet not being perfectly soundproof, it\u2019s still 10% quieter than the previous models thanks to the noise-isolating wind deflectors and chin bar.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Bottom Line<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">This helmet is a great investment if you have a little bit of extra cash to spend.

The RF-1100 is currently one of the company\u2019s strongest helmets. It\u2019s been heavily tested in wind tunnels and by professional motocross athletes to ensure the highest performance standards. The upgraded ergonomic plush interior makes it an excellent choice for riders looking for a comfortable full-face helmet, and the ventilation lets you head out on those long rides while remaining cool and dry. Additionally, the third-generation tail fin is an amazing feature that greatly reduces wind noise at high speeds.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Bottom Line<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Shoei knocks it out of the park for those looking for a full-face sport-touring helmet.

Users also seem to agree that this model\u2019s quality greatly exceeds the price. Many customers love its noticeable stability while they\u2019re riding at high speeds.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Why it Stands Out to Us<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">This is one of Shoei\u2019s high-end models designed for the racetrack. It\u2019s hand-manufactured to withstand high impact and maximum speeds while being comfortable and lightweight. But the helmet\u2019s equally efficient on the highway.

It\u2019s also weather-resistant and comfortable, enabling you to take it out on long rides without having to worry about the elements. Any helmet that\u2019s designed for touring requires a certain level of comfortability and Shoei doesn\u2019t disappoint. Having greater visibility is equally as important when on the street or highway.

Here are some types they offer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">Full Face Helmets<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Full-face helmets provide the most comfortable around your entire head, as well as some of your neck. These are the <a href=\"https:\/\/speedymoto.com\/motorcycles\/helmets\/safest\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">safest types of helmets<\/a> because of the model\u2019s chin bar. However, it can be difficult to hear while wearing this model and they\u2019re somewhat restrictive. Some of Shoei\u2019s full-face helmets listed in this roundup include the Hornet X-2 and the RF-SR.<\/p>\n<p><span><img alt=\"\" data-id=\"6680\" width=\"413\" data-init-width=\"413\" height=\"450\" data-init-height=\"450\" title=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/speedymoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/z7_harmonic_TC7_front.png\" data-width=\"413\" data-height=\"450\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Photo credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shoei.com\/worldwide\/en\/helmet\/assets\/z7_harmonic_TC7_front.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">shoei.com<\/a><\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">Open Face Helmets<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/speedymoto.com\/motorcycles\/helmets\/3-4ths\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Open-face helmets<\/a>, otherwise known as \u00be helmets, cover your neck and head. However, they lack the chin bar, so your face won\u2019t be completely protected. This also leaves you exposed to wind, rain, sun, and insects. But these helmets are lightweight, don\u2019t create blind spots, and you can easily hear screeching tires or sirens. The Shoei Carburetor is the only \u00be helmet we\u2019ve reviewed here.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">Modular Helmets<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">A <a href=\"https:\/\/speedymoto.com\/motorcycles\/helmets\/modular\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">modular helmet<\/a> combines the aspects of a full-face and open-face model. You can flip up the chin bar when stopped or filling up gas, then put it back down when on the road. However, these helmets tend to be louder than average because the shell is made up of two pieces and doesn\u2019t block out the wind. One of the top modular helmets reviewed here is the Neotec 2.<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\">Helmet Sizing Chart<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Finding the <a href=\"https:\/\/speedymoto.com\/motorcycles\/helmets\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">motorcycle helmet<\/a> that fits best is important to reduce damage from potential impact.

Check out the way they compare to some other popular brands.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">Arai vs Shoei<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/speedymoto.com\/motorcycles\/helmets\/arai-vs-shoei\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Arai and Shoei<\/a> are both Japanese brands that produce premium motorcycle helmets. They\u2019re both known for their high safety standards.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">However, Arai\u2019s helmets aren\u2019t handmade. Arai also doesn\u2019t design helmets with a coverless face shield. Additionally, Shoei places higher importance on comfort than Arai and produces more open-face and modular helmets. Arai\u2019s price point tends to be a bit higher as well.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">HJC vs Arai<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">These are two very different brands. The <a href=\"https:\/\/speedymoto.com\/motorcycles\/helmets\/hjc\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HJC helmet<\/a> is known for producing budget-friendly helmets while Arai is one of the most expensive brands. Arai\u2019s helmets are much more aerodynamic and lightweight.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">AGV vs Shoei<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Both AGV and Shoei helmets score excellent safety ratings. They both produce a wide range of models designed both for the road and the track.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Shoei\u2019s helmets are usually of premium quality while <a href=\"https:\/\/speedymoto.com\/motorcycles\/helmets\/agv\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">AGV<\/a> tends to design mostly mid-range helmets, though it\u2019s also produced some higher-end models.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">Shoei vs Bell<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Both Shoei\u2019s and Bell\u2019s helmets are held to the industry\u2019s highest safety standards.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The two brands differ in terms of physical appearance, though. Shoei tends to lean toward moderate designs, while the <a href=\"https:\/\/speedymoto.com\/motorcycles\/helmets\/bell\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bell helmet<\/a> has a classic look.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Although the two brands are similar, Shoei produces models with more features that are easier to use.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">Icon vs Shoei<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Both Icon and Shoei are DOT certified.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/speedymoto.com\/motorcycles\/helmets\/icon\/\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"outline: none;\" rel=\"noopener\">Icon<\/a> generally produces helmets within the mid-price range, while Shoei leans toward the higher end for most of their premium helmets.

They\u2019re put through rigorous testing to ensure exceptional safety and performance standards. The saying \u201cYou get what you pay for\u201d has never been more true with Shoei.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">Are Shoei Helmets Worth the Money?<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Many buyers who were initially unsure about purchasing a Shoei helmet later report that it\u2019s worth the money.

The warranty covers all manufacturing defects.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">How Much Are Shoei Motorcycle Helmets?<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The prices vary greatly. Shoei offers budget-friendly products for around $150. However, the company\u2019s moderate prices seem to be around a few hundred dollars, while the most expensive model, the X14 Marquez, is just shy of $900.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">How Long Will Shoei Helmet Last?<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Your Shoei helmet is guaranteed to last at least five years from the date of purchase. Any defects are covered under the warranty. There are no guarantees against high-impact crashes and cosmetic damage, so it depends on how well you take care of the helmet.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">How to Pronounce Shoei?<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Phonetically, the brand is pronounced \u201cShow-ay.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Shoei Helmet Buyer Guides<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Looking for all of our guides on Shoei?
