FAQs
What is HPTT?
HPTT stands for High Pressure Thermoplastic Technology. It's a process used to create the helmet's shell, resulting in a strong, lightweight, and durable composite material.
How do I clean the helmet's interior?
The interior lining is typically removable. Hand wash it with mild soap and cool water, then allow it to air dry completely before putting it back in the helmet. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents.
Is the visor interchangeable?
Yes, the visor features a quick-release system, allowing for easy removal and replacement. You can swap it for a clear, smoked, or mirrored visor, or install a Pinlock insert.
What does 'Pinlock Max Vision Ready' mean?
It means the helmet's visor has small pins on the inside surface to which a Pinlock Max Vision insert can be attached. This creates a sealed air pocket between the two visor layers, significantly reducing fogging.
What kind of riding is this helmet best suited for?
The LS2 FF353 RAPID is ideal for daily urban commuting, general street riding, and comfortable mid-distance journeys. It offers a good balance of protection and comfort for these uses.
Does this helmet come with a breath deflector?
Yes, the helmet includes a breath deflector to help minimize visor fogging by redirecting exhaled air away from the visor's inner surface.
What is the closure system?
The helmet uses a micrometric buckle system, which is a quick and secure strap fastening mechanism that allows for easy adjustment.
Troubleshooting
Visor fogs up easily.
Ensure the breath deflector is correctly positioned. Consider purchasing and installing a Pinlock Max Vision insert for superior anti-fog performance. Ride with the visor cracked open slightly in humid conditions.
Helmet feels too tight or loose.
Adjust the chin strap using the micrometric buckle for a secure but comfortable fit. If the overall fit is incorrect, ensure you have selected the correct helmet size. Refer to the sizing guide and consider trying different sizes if possible.
Chin strap buckle is difficult to operate.
Ensure the buckle is clean and free of debris. Try lubricating the mechanism lightly with a silicone-based lubricant if necessary. Practice fastening and unfastening to become familiar with its operation.
Noise at higher speeds.
Ensure all components, including the visor and neck roll, are properly seated. Wear earplugs, which are recommended for all motorcycle riding at higher speeds for hearing protection and comfort.
