SHOEI RF-1400 FORTRESS TC-6 HELMET XL

The Evolution of Perfection is a fitting tagline for the longest-standing, most decorated full-face helmet model in the SHOEI lineup, the RF. The process of improving is a constant evolution, and with a world-class team of designers and engineers leading the charge, SHOEI pushed their resources and technologies to the brink, utilizing a state-of-the-art wind tunnel facility, extensive array of proprietary materials, and the industry's most stringent quality assurance practices to develop the all-new RF-1400. SHOEI's lightest and most compact SNELL-approved full-face helmet model, the RF-1400 has evolved the pursuit of perfection to the next level.

Aerodynamics

Developed and refined in SHOEI's state-of-the-art wind tunnel facility

Compact, aerodynamic shell shape with integrated spoiler

Strategically-shaped air intake and exhaust vents help streamline the overall profile

Lift reduction (upward lift forces): -6%

Drag reduction (forward drag forces): -4%

Advanced Noise Reduction

Optimal shell aerodynamics reduce wind noise around the helmet

Vortex Generators on the sides of the shield reduce wind turbulence

All-new, airtight window beading provides wind/waterproof seal

New, voluminous cheek pads and removable ear pads further restrain wind noise inside the helmet

The RF-1400 provides an incredibly quiet riding experience without blocking the road's informative sounds

Ventilation

Wind tunnel-optimized to provide the perfect balance between airflow and silence

Relocated center/forehead vent is equipped with an additional air intake hole for greater airflow into the helmet

Upper air intake holes have been enlarged for optimal performance

New, enlarged exhaust outlet vent for improved hot-air expulsion

Large 3-position lower vent shutter for ease of use with riding gloves

Features six (6) air intake vents and four (4) exhaust outlets

CWR-F2 Shield

Protects from 99% of the sun's damaging UV rays

3D injection-molding ensures distortion-free view throughout the entire field of vision

2D "flat" outside surface combined with 3D technology inside offers an aggressive look with optimized visibility

Vortex Generators improve shield aerodynamics and reduce wind noise

All-new, conveniently located center locking mechanism evenly distributes shield forces across both base plates

PINLOCK EVO fog-resistant system is 10% larger for improved lateral vision

CWR-F2 Base Plate

Completely redesigned to facilitate quicker, smoother shield changes

New shield adjuster mechanism provides easier, more precise tuning

Redesigned base plate gear has all-new "first position" shield opening feature for advanced venting and defogging

SHOEI's patented spring-loaded technology ensures a wind and waterproof seal

All-new airtight window beading reduces wind and water intrusion

Multi-Ply Matric Aim+ Shell

Proprietary technology integrates a multi-ply matrix specifically designed to meet both SNELL M2020 and DOT standards

Hand-laid interwoven layers of fiberglass with lightweight organic and high-performance fibers

Shell-integrated spoiler with consistent shell thickness guarantees proper strength and weight

SHOEI's strongest, lightest, most elastic shell provides optimal impact absorption

Dual-Layer/Multi-Density EPS Liner

Provides enhanced impact absorption by utilizing varying densities of foam

Allows cooling air to travel unrestricted through tunnels created in the EPS

Precise placement of multi-density EPS material yields a more compact, lightweight design

Emergency Quick Release System

Allows emergency medical personnel to easily and safely remove the cheek pads from an injured rider's helmet

3D Max-Dry Interior System II

Fully removable, washable, replaceable and adjustable

Exclusive Max-Dry material absorbs and dissipates sweat 2X faster than traditional nylon interiors

Soft yet durable lower cheek pad fabric for a plush fit and feel

Three-dimensionally shaped to match the contours of a rider's head

Multi-layer cheek pads for improved comfort and helmet stabilization

Cheek pads feature more volume for greater comfort and reduced wind noise
