FAQs

What does ECE 22.06 certification mean?

ECE 22.06 is the latest European safety standard for motorcycle helmets. It signifies that the helmet has undergone rigorous testing for impact absorption, rotational forces, and other safety parameters, ensuring a high level of protection.

How do I clean the helmet's interior?

The interior liner is removable and washable. Use mild soap and cool water for hand washing. Allow it to air dry completely before putting it back in the helmet.

Can I replace the visor myself?

Yes, the helmet features a new quick-change system that allows for tool-free visor replacement. Refer to the care section for cleaning instructions.

Is this helmet suitable for long-distance touring?

While comfortable for its class, the open-face design is primarily suited for urban and shorter country road rides. For very long distances or high-speed touring, a full-face helmet might offer more protection and wind noise reduction.

What is HPTT?

HPTT stands for High Pressure Thermoplastic Technology. It's a material blend used to mold the helmet shell, offering a combination of strength, impact resistance, and light weight.

Does the helmet come with a pinlock visor?

The product description does not mention Pinlock readiness or inclusion. The visor is described as scratch-resistant and UV-resistant.

How do I know if I have the right size helmet?

The helmet should fit snugly around your head without excessive pressure points. Measure your head circumference and compare it with LS2's sizing chart. The helmet should not move excessively when you shake your head.

Troubleshooting

Helmet feels too tight or causes pressure points.

The laser-cut foam is designed for a snug fit. If pressure points persist, consider trying a different size or consulting LS2's sizing guide. Some minor settling may occur with use.

Visor fogs up easily.

Ensure the visor is clean. Consider using an anti-fog treatment spray or wipe, or riding with the visor slightly ajar for improved ventilation, especially in humid conditions.

Strap adjustment is difficult.

Familiarize yourself with the ratchet closure mechanism. Ensure all parts are clean and free of debris. If the mechanism seems stiff, a light clean may help.

Interior liner smells after use.

Remove the liner and wash it according to the care instructions. Ensure it is completely dry before reinserting to prevent odor buildup.
