Product Information

Full details

The HJC RPHA 71 Graphic Motorcycle Helmet is designed for adult riders seeking a premium sport-touring helmet suitable for diverse riding conditions, from urban commutes to extended cross-country journeys. Its key benefit is offering a lightweight yet robust helmet with enhanced protection and aerodynamic performance. A potential consideration is that while it's ready for Bluetooth, the system is sold separately. This helmet features a PIM Evo shell for superior impact resistance, advanced ventilation, a Pinlock-ready visor with UV protection, and comfortable, removable interiors.

FAQs

What makes the PIM Evo shell different from standard shells?

The PIM Evo shell uses advanced materials like Carbon-Aramid Hybrid and Natural Fibre, offering enhanced shock resistance, greater comfort, and a lighter weight compared to traditional shell constructions.

Is the Pinlock insert included with the helmet?

Yes, the RPHA 71 comes equipped with a Pinlock 120 DKS468 insert, providing excellent anti-fog performance.

Can I use my glasses with this helmet?

Yes, the helmet features internal grooves designed to accommodate riders who wear eyeglasses comfortably.

How do I clean the helmet's interior?

The crown and cheek pads are fully removable and washable. You can hand wash them with mild soap and cold water, then air dry completely.

What safety certifications does the RPHA 71 have?

The helmet meets and exceeds ECE 22/06 safety standards and is also ACU Gold Certified.

How does the visor locking system work?

It features a push-and-release visor lock for easy opening while ensuring a more secure closure. The ratchet system provides smooth movement and improved visor sealing.

What are the benefits of the aerodynamic design?

The aerodynamic design reduces air resistance and minimizes wind noise and buffeting at high speeds, leading to a more stable and comfortable ride.

Troubleshooting

Helmet feels too tight or loose

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Refer to the sizing chart. If minor adjustments are needed, consider aftermarket cheek pads or liners for a custom fit.

Visor fogs up despite Pinlock

Ensure the Pinlock insert is correctly installed and sealed against the main visor. Check that the breath guard (if included) is properly positioned.

Difficulty operating the sun visor

Ensure the slider mechanism is clean and free of debris. Consult the helmet manual for the correct operation of the 3-step adjustment.

Ventilation seems insufficient

Confirm that all intake and exhaust vents are open and not blocked by debris. Ensure the interior padding is correctly seated to allow air to circulate.

Bluetooth system not pairing

Refer to the SMART HJC Bluetooth system's manual for pairing instructions. Ensure both the helmet and the Bluetooth unit are fully charged and in pairing mode.
