Shoei RF-1400 MM93 Rush Full Face Helmet TC-5
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, we pushed our resources and technologies to the brink, utilizing our 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.
DESIGN CONCEPT
- Evolved design, functionality and performance over its predecessor
- Wind tunnel-tested and refined aerodynamics and ventilation performance
- Compact, aerodynamic shell shape with integrated spoiler
- SHOEI’s lightest SNELL-approved full-face helmet model
- All-new shield and base plate system for optimized visibility and performance
- Noise-reduction technology reduces unwanted wind and road noise
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
- Boasts impressive improvements in aerodynamic performance and reduces the forces placed on a rider’s head
- 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 PERFORMANCE
- 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 SYSTEM
- 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 MATRIX 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 (E.Q.R.S.)
- Allows emergency medical personnel to easily and safely remove the cheek pads from an injured rider’s helmet
- Helmet can be gently removed from an injured rider’s head with minimal load placed on his/her neck
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
- Optional interior components available in different sizes for a customizable fit
- Cheek pad channel for eyeglasses
