AGV – Corsa R, Pista GP R and K-3 SV

Most motorcycle enthusiasts inevitably associate the AGV brand with MotoGP legend Valentino Rossi. For what feels like an eternity, the Italian helmet manufacturer VR46 has been supplying some very exotic-looking racing helmets.

MotoGP legend Valentino Rossi is equipped by AGV.

Many of the designs are offered as replica models by AGV. Interested parties can choose between many different helmet models. From the top model AGV Pista GP R to the low-budget AGV K-3 SV helmet, buyers have a wide range of options. In addition to Valentino Rossi, other MotoGP stars such as Pol Espargaro or Franco Morbidelli are also equipped by AGV.

in the last comparison test the full-face helmet achieved the grade good – satisfactory. The fit, the good workmanship and the large field of vision were particularly impressive in the test. The rather high weight, the shock absorption values ​​and the difficult putting on and taking off were criticized.

Prices start at 799 euros. Decor models are, however, significantly more expensive.

HJC RPHA 11

HJC recently drew attention to itself with new helmets in comic, Disney and Star Wars look. But some replica models have also made it into the HJC range. 

manufacturer

This is what the replica model of Jonas Folger’s helmet looks like.

For example, Suzuki driver Andrea Iannone is on the hunt for points with an HJC helmet. Jonas Folger also started with an HJC RPHA 11 until his injury and the associated forced break.

Im already mentioned comparison test the HJC RPHA 11 achieved the grade very good – good. In the test, the HJC helmet impressed with its good fit and comfort. The workmanship and the equipment were also highlighted positively in the test. The prices start at a comparatively inexpensive 399.99 euros.

KYT Falcon

The manufacturer KYT should not be immediately known to everyone. In MotoGP, the two riders Aleix Espargaro and Xavier Simeon are equipped by KYT.

manufacturer

The KYT Falcon is relatively cheap in comparison.

The manufacturer is particularly well known in Asia, where the helmets are also produced. The Research, Development and Design departments, however, are located in Italy.  

Unfortunately, the sportiest model from KYT, the Falcon, was not in the field of participants in the last comparison test. That could change again in the next racing helmet comparison test. Compared to the other helmets presented in this article, the Falcon is significantly cheaper. The Falcon is on the popular sales portals “Espargaro”Design available from around 150 euros.

LS2 – Arrow R and Arrow-C

The helmet manufacturer LS2 is no longer unknown in this country. The two racing drivers Loris Baz and Hector Barbera are equipped by LS2, among others. Accordingly, the manufacturer offers the Arrow-C model in replica versions. That “C.” Incidentally, the model name stands for carbon.

manufacturer

LS2 Arrow-C im “Loris Baz”-Look.

In the last MOTORRAD comparison test, we tested the basic variant Arrow-R. The decent workmanship and the extremely large field of vision were convincing at the time. The difficult putting on and taking off, the unsatisfactory fit and the mediocre aerodynamics are less good. The basic version is available from 299.90 euros. The carbon model is currently available on common sales platforms for around 320 euros. 

Scorpion Exo 2000 Evo Air

Scorpion offers a wide range of different full face helmets. The top model is the Scorpion Exo 2000 Evo Air, of which there is a replica version from Alvaro Bautista.

manufacturer

MotoGP rider Alvaro Bautista will be equipped by Scorpion.

In the MOTORRAD comparison test in issue 9/2016, the full-face helmet placed in the solid midfield. The fit in the test was rated as satisfactory. Pressure points? Nothing! Otherwise, we liked the large field of vision. On the other hand, putting on and taking off was rated rather critically. The increased wind noise also resulted in point deductions at the time. The Scorpion Exo 2000 Evo Air is currently available from around 250 euros.

Shark – Race R Pro / GP / Carbon

Shark offers several models in replica design. The helmet manufacturer equips Jorge Lorenzo, Johann Zarco, Scott Redding and Tom Sykes with helmets, among others.

manufacturer

Shark offers three replica variants from Johann Zarco.

Various replica variants are currently being offered by these four pilots. The Shark Race R Pro was one of 14 participants in the last sports helmet comparison test in MOTORRAD. The Shark helmet cut a good figure and narrowly missed the test victory. The firm fit, the good fit, the large field of vision and the good ventilation options were positively highlighted at the time. 

The other two models, the Race R Pro GP and Race R Pro Carbon, are upgraded versions of the basic model. Prices: Race R Pro from 449.90 euros (RRP), Race R Pro GP approx. 1,000 euros (sales portals) and Race R Pro Carbon approx. 699 euros (RRP).

Shoei – X-Spirit III and NXR

The Shoei X-Spirit III is the top model of the Japanese helmet manufacturer, who equips MotoGP world champion Marc Marquez, among others. The NXR is supposed to represent the cheaper entry into the world of full-face helmets from Shoei compared to the top model.

manufacturer

MotoGP champion Marc Marquez is one of the riders who will be outfitted by Shoei.

Both models are available in different replica variants. And both models performed solidly in the last MOTORRAD and PS tests. With the Shoei X-Spirit III there was nothing to complain about, apart from the rather moderate shock absorption and the somewhat heavy weight. The NXR also convinced in the MOTORRAD test and secured second place in the comparison test. 

The top model Shoei X-Spirit III is currently available for 699 euros. The comparatively cheaper NXR currently costs around 550 euros as a replica variant on various sales portals.

Suomy – SR Sport and Speedster

In addition to KYT, Suomy is the second, at least in Germany, not so well-known manufacturer to be mentioned in this article. Interestingly, there is also a cooperation between KYT and Suomy. 

manufacturer

MotoGP Vice World Champion Andrea Dovizioso will be equipped for Suomy.

Suomy has been a distributor for the Indonesian helmet manufacturer since 2014. The most famous rider to start wearing a Suomy helmet is without a doubt Ducati rider Andrea Dovizioso. The top model from Suomy, the SR Sport, is available as a replica model in three different Dovizioso looks. The Suomy Speedster is also available in various replica versions. The prices on the sales portals at SR Sport (with replica decor) currently start at just under 490 euros. The Speedster is significantly cheaper at just under 350 euros.

X-Lite (Nolan) – X 803 / Carbon

X-Lite is one of the most popular helmet brands in Germany. The Italian helmet manufacturer equips numerous motor sports enthusiasts with their products. The new top model from X-Lite is the X 803, of which there is also a carbon version.

manufacturer

We know these two variants from the Superbike World Championship run by Ducati driver Chaz Davies.

The two latest racing helmets have been available since the beginning of 2018, which is why the X 803 has not yet been able to prove itself in a comparison test. Compared to its predecessor, the X 802 RR, which incidentally performed well in the comparison test, the X 803 has been improved in some areas. So the manufacturer promises with the X 803 / Carbon including better stability at high speeds, improved aerodynamics, a revised ventilation system and much more.

Depending on the model, the prices for the replica variants start at just under 580 euros (RRP). The carbon version is even more expensive. In addition, Nolan donated various replica decors to some cheaper entry-level models such as the N60-5.
