- All-new V-470 visor provides a seamless connection with the shell, optimal roost protection, and secure positioning
- Optimally-designed vents, an aerodynamic shell, and cooling EPS channels yield superior airflow
Motion Energy Distribution System [M.E.D.S.]
- Proprietary, SHOEI-exclusive rotational energy absorption technology
- Anchored by larger center column, inner EPS layer swings during impact
- Strategically-designed perimeter columns absorb rotational energy
- Significant reduction of rotational forces to the rider’s head
- Preserves the lightweight, impact-absorbing characteristics of SHOEI’s traditional EPS systems
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
- M.E.D.S. technology absorbs and reduces rotational energy
Multi-Ply Matrix AIM+ Shell
- Proprietary technology integrates a six-ply matrix
- Hand-laid interwoven layers of fiberglass with lightweight organic and high-performance fibers
- SHOEI’s strongest, lightest, most elastic shell provides optimal impact absorption
Chin Bar EPS
- High-quality EPS liner material throughout entire chin bar for enhanced impact absorption
Shell Design + Aerodynamics
- Exclusive, state-of-the-art shell forming technology
- Incorporates the aerodynamic advantages of a spoiler into the shell
- Consistent shell thickness guarantees proper strength and weight
- Shell-integrated goggle channel forms a perfect goggle retention system
Large Eyeport
- Provides a massive peripheral field of vision
- Large eyeport facilitates oversized goggles
V-470 Visor
- Fine-tuned by SHOEI’s professional motocross and off-road racing team
- Specially designed for a seamless connection with the shell
- Provides superior roost protection and channels cooling air into helmet
- Utilizes highest point of adjustability as its standard “home” position
- New flange mechanism to easily find home position and prevent unexpected movement
- High-grade polycarbonate screws are capable of shearing off during impact to reduce forces to the rider’s head
Advanced Mouthpiece
- Equal parts style, functionality and safety
- Wind tunnel-refined for optimal cooling
- Reinforced by a strategically-placed strip of AIM+ shell material
- Aluminum mesh screen and removable, washable foam filter prevents roost, rocks, mud, and dust from entering helmet
Ventilation Performance
- Boasting sixteen (16) intake and exhaust vents in total
- Wind tunnel-tested for optimal vent port shapes, sizes and locations
- Improved negative air pressure suction for enhanced cool-air intake and hot-air expulsion
- Cooling air channels in the dual-layer EPS liner further enhance airflow
- Optimized to excel in the demanding confines of off-road and motocross environments
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
- Fully removable, washable, replaceable, and adjustable
- Max-Dry liner material absorbs and dissipates sweat 2X faster than traditional nylon interiors
- Soft yet durable lower cheek pad fabric for a plush fit and feel
- Multi-layer cheek pads for maximum comfort and superior helmet stabilization
- Three-dimensionally shaped to match the contours of a rider's head
Inclusions:
- M.E.D.S (Motion Energy Distribution System), a flexible insert that helps absorb sudden impact to the head in the event of a crash
- Larger mouth piece for improved air intake
- Ergonomically shaped mud guard
- Helmet sack constructed of soft, velvety fabric with drawstring closure
