Shoei Set To Release New All-In-One Helmet: The Neotec3

The world of motorcycle helmets is in a constant state of evolution, and leading the way in this pursuit of excellence is Shoei Helmets, a name synonymous with quality, innovation, and safety. Their latest offering, the NEOTEC3, takes motorcycle helmet design to new heights by seamlessly combining functionality, comfort, and advanced safety features. In this article, we’ll delve into the features that make Shoei Helmets’ NEOTEC3 a game-changer for the touring enthusiast.

A Seamless Blend of Form and Functionality

Shoei Helmets’ NEOTEC3 is not just a helmet; it’s a work of art designed to enhance your riding experience. Shoei Helmets has created a helmet that strikes the perfect balance between a sleek and sophisticated design and a wealth of functionalities suitable for a variety of riding environments.

The Art of Seamless Design

One of the key features of Shoei Helmets’ NEOTEC3 is its seamless design. The face cover and other components are seamlessly integrated into the shell, creating a sense of unity and purpose. This design isn’t just about aesthetics; it serves a vital purpose in enhancing the helmet’s airtight seal.

Wind Tunnel Perfected

The NEOTEC3 underwent extensive testing in Shoei Helmets’ own large-scale wind tunnel testing facility to optimize its shape for improved sealing. By minimizing the gap between the face cover and the helmet shell, the intrusion of wind and rain is significantly reduced, ensuring a more comfortable and weather-resistant riding experience.

Interior Excellence

Inside the helmet, Shoei Helmets has left no stone unturned in pursuit of rider comfort. The cheek pads are extended to the rear of the helmet, reducing the gap around the neck. Additionally, a noise isolator beneath the chin further prevents wind intrusion. The result is a secure and comfortable fit for long rides.

Customizable Comfort

Should you feel any tightness on the head, the NEOTEC3 allows for fine adjustments to the fit using optional adjustment pads in the center pad. The interior surface fabric is designed for both sweat absorption and quick drying, as well as softness against the skin, ensuring you stay comfortable throughout your journey.

Advanced Ventilation

Shoei Helmets has created an efficient ventilation system with the NEOTEC3. The upper air intake has a simple design, while the top air outlet is designed for high exhaust efficiency. The lower air intake even has a defroster function, providing versatility to enjoy riding in various weather conditions.

Security and Functionality

The locking mechanism for the face cover offers two stages of security. The first stage is for easy helmet removal, while the second stage ensures a strong hold, preventing the face cover from accidentally closing during your ride. All of this is achieved without adding extra weight.

Airtight Face Cover

The NEOTEC3’s face cover features an eccentric rotation axis, preventing interference with the shell and parts when opened or closed. The locking mechanism utilizes a 360-degree pivot system for added security and to prevent unexpected openings in case of a fall.

Upgraded Shield System

The NEOTEC3 is equipped with the CNS-3C shield, which optimizes the shape for system helmets. It prevents wind and rain from entering, while the tab placement and rib design ensure smooth shield operation.

Seamless Communication

This helmet’s communication system attachment mechanism is compact and aerodynamically friendly, ensuring it doesn’t disrupt your ride’s experience. Battery space is provided to charge your devices, and the interior is designed for easy microphone and speaker installation.

Sun Visor Innovation

The NEOTEC3 features the QSV-2 sun visor, offering an extended coverage area and clear visibility with minimal distortion. Its operation mechanism ensures smooth opening and closing, even while wearing gloves.

Micro Ratchet Chinstrap

This helmet is equipped with a micro ratchet type chinstrap that can be easily adjusted, even with gloves on. It’s compact, lightweight, and highly durable, ensuring both safety and convenience.

Shoei Helmets’ NEOTEC3 is not just a helmet; it’s a testament to the brand’s commitment to rider safety, comfort, and innovation.

Shoei has not released details on the helmet’s pricing outside of Japan or if it will be available in global markets including Malaysia.

Shoei Helmets 2024 Collection Expands with the Glamster

In 2024, the Shoei Helmets lineup, including the much-loved Marc Marquez collection, is growing with the introduction of the Glamster. The Shoei Glamster, while not a new model on its own, has been a familiar sight on European roads for nearly a decade. Characterized by its iconic rounded shell shape, a generous visor, and the timeless retro Shoei logo, the Glamster serves as a nod to the earliest days of full-face motorcycle helmets.

Marc Marquez has an affection for retroy styling and this has been evident throughout his racing career. This affection often finds expression in the unique, one-of-a-kind helmet designs he showcases at the MotoGP Grand Prix of the Americas in Austin, Texas, influenced by his passion for flat track racing.

The latest addition to the Shoei Helmets lineup, the Shoei Glamster MM93 edition, continues to reflect Marquez’s fondness for vintage aesthetics. This helmet features a dark color scheme, dominated by black and grey on the shell, accented with striking red stripes and details that distinctly identify it as part of Shoei’s MM93 collection. Marquez’s iconic number, 93, is elegantly displayed in a retro-style font against a light-grey background on both sides of the helmet.

It’s crucial to note that the MM93 edition of the Glamster maintains the same technical specifications as the original Glamster. This includes ECE 22.06 certification for optimal safety, the utilization of Shoei Drylens and Pinlock Evo Lens on the visor to prevent fogging, and strategically placed minimalist air intakes on the chin area and the top front part of the shell for enhanced airflow. The helmet also features a removable interior lining for effortless cleaning and an EQRS (Emergency Quick Release System) for swift helmet removal in emergency situations.

Presently, the Shoei Glamster MM93 has been announced exclusively in Japan, where it is priced at ¥56,000 (approximately £310, excluding tax). It’s available in sizes ranging from S to XXL. Information regarding the helmet’s availability in markets outside of Japan, including Europe, is currently unavailable. Explore the latest offerings from Shoei Helmets, including the Glamster, to elevate your riding experience in style and safety.

SHOEI Malaysia Introduces New X-Fifteen Road Helmet – Prices From RM2,850!

The wait is over for racing enthusiasts as SHOEI’s much-anticipated premium road racing helmet, the X-Fifteen, has finally made its debut in Malaysia. To celebrate the arrival of this cutting-edge helmet, SHOEI Malaysia hosted an exclusive preview event for the first 100 X-Fifteen owners. These lucky individuals were given the unique opportunity to choose their preferred helmet graphics and finalize the sizing through the X-Fifteen Personal Fitting System (PFS) session. As an extra special touch, every X-Fifteen owner received an exclusive limited-edition gift set.

One of the standout features of the X-Fifteen is its aerodynamic prowess, fine-tuned in SHOEI’s state-of-the-art wind tunnel facility. The helmet’s design prioritizes high-speed stability, resulting in a remarkable 6.1% drag reduction and a 1.6% decrease in lift compared to its predecessor. This engineering marvel is capable of delivering peak performance at speeds of up to 350 km/h.

The X-Fifteen boasts a Multi-Ply Advanced Integrated Matrix Plus (AIM+) Shell, constructed from a six-ply matrix of lightweight fiberglass and high-performance fibers. This shell is not only tough but also adept at shock absorption while maintaining its structural integrity. It’s a true racing helmet, promising exceptional performance, functionality, and, above all, safety.

Safety is paramount, and the X-Fifteen excels in this aspect with its Multi-Piece/Multi-Density EPS Liner, strategically using varying foam densities to optimize impact absorption around the head. This precise placement results in a more compact, lightweight design.

Ventilation and airflow in the X-Fifteen have been optimized with seven closable air inlets and six air outlets, allowing hot air to escape efficiently. Additionally, the EPS tunnels have been deepened from 6mm to 10mm, significantly increasing cold air volume and expediting hot air evacuation, ensuring a constant flow of refreshing air for the rider. The innovative cheek pad cooling system now incorporates more air holes to provide additional comfort.

In terms of comfort, the X-Fifteen introduces pocket-shaped pads with removable layers for a precision fit. Its patented angle adjustment mechanism can change the helmet’s position by up to 4 degrees, enhancing the rider’s upper field of vision, especially when tucked into extreme racing positions.

Functionality is taken to the next level with a double-layer lens lock design, ensuring stability during high-speed riding. The two-stage shield locking system, comprising a racing shield lock and a center locking mechanism, offers the best protection against unexpected shield releases during a fall. Furthermore, a newly developed trigger lock mechanism prevents the shield from detaching after an accident, instilling even greater rider confidence.

Most importantly, the X-Fifteen complies with the latest ECE22.06 and FIM homologation safety standards. It features a CWR-F2R shield/visor that combats fogging in various weather conditions, providing riders with a consistently clear vision. This shield, in combination with the latest window beading, effectively prevents wind and water from entering when secured. To suit individual tastes, the helmet is available in a wide range of colors and graphics, and it offers sizes ranging from XS to XXL, ensuring a perfect fit for every rider.

The SHOEI X-Fifteen is now available at retail prices of RM 2,850 for the Plain version, RM 3,350 for Graphic, and RM 3,500 for Riders Replica. For those seeking a personalized fitting session, customers are encouraged to visit the Gomoto Experience Lab to ensure the best helmet fit.

Shoei Unveils New GT-Air 3 Helmet

Known for equipping some of the world’s most renowned riders, Shoei is once again taking the lead by introducing a significant update to one of its most iconic helmet lines, the GT-Air.

With the release of the GT-Air 3, the third iteration of this popular model, Shoei aligns itself with the latest safety standards, proudly obtaining the ECE 22.06 homologation.
Safety is paramount in the design and engineering of the GT-Air 3, making it the safest iteration yet.

Drawing upon the latest innovations from Shoei’s Japanese laboratories, the helmet complies with the rigorous safety standards set by the European Commission. Notably, Shoei has also updated its Neotec 3 helmet to meet the new 22.06 homologation requirements.

At first glance, the GT-Air 3 might appear strikingly similar to its predecessor, the GT-Air 2, especially when adorned in the familiar matte blue finish. However, closer inspection reveals a host of marked improvements.

These include a redesigned venting system for enhanced airflow, a centrally-located spring-loaded latch mechanism on the main visor, subtle revisions to the helmet’s aerodynamics, and an enlarged sun visor. The convenience of the comms unit adapter on the side and Shoei’s proprietary Shoei Comlink system are retained and highlighted on the manufacturer’s website.

Inside the GT-Air 3, subtle revisions have been made, likely in response to the ECE 22.06 parameters. Notably, the chinstrap has been improved to be lighter, more user-friendly, and still equipped with the secure ratchet retention system. Crafted from stainless steel, it ensures both safety and convenience.

While specific noise reduction figures were not disclosed in Shoei’s preview, the GT-Air 3 is expected to build upon the reputation of its predecessor, the GT-Air 2, as one of the quietest helmets on the market when it officially becomes available for sale.

In terms of sizing and comfort, the GT-Air 3 will offer three different shell sizes, catering to XS to M, L, and XL to XXL head dimensions. Four sizes of cheek pads, measuring 31, 35, 39, and 43mm, will be available, allowing for a customized fit. A Pinlock shield and chin curtain will be included in the package for added convenience and protection.

In terms of colour, Shoei maintains a familiar lineup, with choices that include solids such as Black, Matte Black, Matte Blue Metallic, Brilliant Yellow, Matte Deep Grey, and White. Enthusiasts seeking graphical designs can choose from options such as the Discipline TC-1, TC-2, and TC-6, the Realm TC-1, TC-5, and TC-10, and the Scenario TC-3 and TC-5.

SHOEI Honours MM93 King Of COTA Status With A Limited Edition Helmet

Marc Marquez, a six-time MotoGP champion, has earned the title of “King of COTA” due to his unbeatable form on U.S. soil.

Marc Marquez wins six time in a row at the Circuit of the Americas between 2013 and 2018 earning him the “King of COTA” status.
The limited-edition helmet is to honour Marquez’s amazing feat at COTA.

Despite suffering a broken humerus and undergoing several surgeries in 2020, Marquez won at the Circuit of the Americas again in 2021.

In honor of his winning record, Shoei has created a limited-edition Z8 helmet with an American Spirit graphic.

The special livery, worn by Marquez during the 2022 Grand Prix of the Americas, features a red, white, and blue color combination, stars and stripes integrated into the design, and Marquez’s signature number 93 emblazoned on both sides of the helmet.

The helmet is made with Shoei’s eminent all-arounder, the Z-8 (RF-1400), which boasts extra comfort and an affordable mid-range price tag, making it a great option for road riding.

The Z-8 was updated recently with a newly improved ventilation system, a new visor-locking mechanism, and noise-diffusing, aerodynamics-enhancing Vortex Generators, making it the perfect all-rounder helmet. That said, the GP-accurate American Spirit graphic lends itself perfectly to the Z-8 model.

Shoei will release the limited-edition helmet in July 2023 with limited orders open through August 2023. The race replica will be available in sizes S (55cm), M (57cm), L (59cm), XL (61cm), and XXL (63cm) at a price of JPY71,500 (RM2.3k).

The All-Rounder SHOEI NXR 2 Now In Malaysia – ECE22.06 Certified, From RM2.4k

SHOEI has introduced its latest model of full-face helmet, the NXR 2, which is the lightest and most compact ECE 22.06 homologation approved helmet in their lineup.

The NXR 2 is the lightest helmet in Shoei’s range.
The new all-rounder helmet meets the latest ECE22.06 standard.

The NXR 2 has been developed and refined by a team of world-class designers and engineers who utilized their state-of-the-art wind tunnel facility and industry-leading quality assurance practices to push the limits of resources and technologies.

The helmet has also been designed with advanced noise reduction technology, including vortex generators on the shield’s sides to reduce wind turbulence and an all-new, airtight window beading that provides a wind and waterproof seal. The NXR 2 provides an incredibly quiet riding experience without blocking the road’s informative sounds.

Someone Just Bought A Shoei J-Force 2 Jack Yellow For RM86,000!

Only in Malaysia is someone willing to pay a huge sum of money for things that were relatively cheap a few years ago.

For example, a new-old-stock (NOS) Yamaha RX-Z two-stroke motorcycle could cost more than RM30,000. A few years ago, someone allegedly paid RM70,000 for the bike, making it one of the most sought models today.

However, the ludicrous price tag involved not only motorcycles but also helmets.

A few days ago, a seller on Facebook managed to sell the Shoei J-Force 2 Jack Yellow for an insane RM86,000!

While some might think that the price tag is absurd, according to the post, the sale was legit. The buyer – who is a lady – paid the amount in cash, which can be seen clearly in the shared photos.

The question is, are you willing to spend that much for a motorcycle helmet?

SHOEI Release Limited Edition Opticson Heads-Up Display Helmet

In April, we first saw SHOEI’s Opticson heads-up display helmet prototype at the Osaka Motorcycle Show 2022.

SHOEI Opticson is to be available in limited numbers in Japan.
The Opticson is SHOEI’s first futuristic helmet that features a heads-up display.

At a glance, the SHOEI Opticson looks like a regular helmet, but there is a vertically-adjustable display piece that sits in front of the rider’s right eye.

SHOEI also fitted a projection unit hidden neatly inside the chin bar, which can be connected to the smartphone via Bluetooth. The projection unit will display information such as navigation instructions on the display pane for the rider to look at while riding.

While the feature seems exciting, at the time, the Opticson is still just a prototype.

That is, until now, as SHOEI is offering a limited run of the Opticson exclusively in Japan. The helmet will only be available in three Shoei Gallery around Japan and is priced at JPY137,500.

Unfortunately, SHOEI has no plans to release the Opticson in a market outside of Japan.
