FAQs
What makes the LS2 FF901 Advant X ECE 22.06 certified?
ECE 22.06 is the latest European safety standard, featuring more rigorous testing protocols including rotational impact tests, to ensure a higher level of protection for riders.
Can I wear glasses with this helmet?
Yes, the helmet is designed with channels in the EPS liner to accommodate eyeglasses, and the laser-cut foam aims for a comfortable fit with eyewear.
How do I clean the helmet's interior?
The interior liner is removable and washable. Hand wash with mild soap and cool water, then air dry completely before reinserting.
Is the Pinlock Max Vision insert included?
Yes, the helmet comes prepared for the Pinlock Max Vision system, and the insert is typically included to prevent fogging.
What is the main advantage of the 180º rotating chin guard?
It allows for quick and easy conversion between a full-face helmet for maximum protection and an open-face (jet) helmet for better airflow and a more relaxed riding experience.
Can I install a Bluetooth communication system?
The helmet is compatible with the LS2 INTERCOM system, which can be installed using adhesive. Always follow the specific instructions for the intercom unit.
What is the material of the helmet shell?
The shell is constructed from HPFC (High Pressure Fiber Composite), which is an ultra-lightweight yet strong composite material offering excellent resistance.
Troubleshooting
Visor fogs up easily.
Ensure the Pinlock Max Vision insert is correctly installed and the anti-fog coating is intact. Ride with the main visor slightly open or use the ventilation system.
Chin bar does not rotate smoothly.
Check for any obstructions around the pivot points. Clean the mechanism gently and ensure it is properly lubricated according to the manual. Do not force the mechanism.
Ventilation seems insufficient.
Open all adjustable vents (chin and top). Ensure air intake ports are not blocked and that the channelled EPS is clear. Rider's clothing may also affect airflow.
Helmet feels loose or uncomfortable.
Adjust the chin strap for a secure fit. Ensure the helmet size is correct; if it consistently feels loose or tight in specific areas, consider trying a different size or model.
Drop-down sun visor is difficult to operate.
Check the slider mechanism for any debris or damage. Ensure the visor is fully retracted before attempting to deploy it.
