New HJC RPHA11, the return of a premium helmet [PHOTO]

New HJC RPHA11 – HJC returns to the track with a new premium helmet, the RPHA11, worn during Friday testing of the Moto GP in Catalonia by the Spanish champion Jorge Lorenzo. It is an evolution of the famous RPHA10+, a model in itself difficult to surpass, but it seems that the developers of the brand have outdone themselves this time.

As happened with the RPHA10+ racing helmet, also with the new HJC RPHA11 the field of view has been further cut to improve the viewing angle in the running position, a function that finds support through the V-shaped side recesses located in the previously straight lower edge of the helmet. An important prerequisite for greater head mobility. Compared to its predecessor, the RPHA10+, which had a simple visor block while now, the new HJC RPHA11 has a double one and, furthermore, the cheek pads can be removed in an emergency without removing the helmet. Instead of 9 external and internal air vents, the new HJC RPHA11 helmet has 25 which thus allow optimizing helmet ventilation, a fundamental feature for those who ride a motorbike. Two additional resealable openings located on the side of the chin allow for more complete and high-performance cooling.

The new HJC RPHA11 has become even safer thanks to an additional layer of hybrid glass and carbon fibers improving the physical stability of the shell. The new model is also very light, weighing just 1.300 grams, in size S, and it will already be available on the market from the beginning of November a 399,90 € for the single color (Pearl White, Glossy Black, Matt Black) with additional dark colored visor and Pinlock- (anti-fog lens) included as standard. While with 100 euros more It can be had in the matt Titanio, Grafiche Riberte, Darter and Eridano colours. Finally, they will need 549,90 for the Epiktrip, Oraiser, Skyrym and Replica Indy Lorenzo MC5 variants.
