Product Information
Full details
The LS2 FF901 Advant X Solid Helmet in White, size 3XL, is a versatile flip-up helmet designed for adult male riders seeking adaptable protection. Its key benefit is the 180º rotating chin bar, offering the flexibility of a full-face helmet or an open-face experience. A potential consideration is ensuring the fit for heads outside the standard range, as with any specific size. Key features include a scratch and UV-resistant visor, a double visor system, quick-release mechanism, and Pinlock Max Vision preparation.

FAQs
Is the Pinlock insert included with the helmet?
No, the Pinlock Max Vision insert is sold separately but the helmet is prepared to accept it for enhanced anti-fog performance.
How do I clean the interior of the helmet?
The interior lining is typically removable. Hand wash it with mild soap and cool water, then allow it to air dry completely before reassembling.
What is the advantage of the 180º rotating chin bar?
The 180º rotating chin bar offers the flexibility to switch between a full-face helmet and an open-face helmet without removing the helmet, providing convenience for various riding situations.
How do I know if this 3XL size will fit me?
Refer to the manufacturer's sizing chart and measure your head circumference. While this is a 3XL, fit can vary, so comparing measurements to the official chart is recommended.
Can I use this helmet for all types of motorcycle riding?
The LS2 FF901 Advant X is designed as a versatile helmet suitable for commuting and touring. Always ensure your helmet meets the safety standards required for your specific type of riding.
How do I operate the internal sun visor?
The internal sun visor is typically operated by a slider or lever located on the side or top of the helmet. Consult the product manual for specific operating instructions.
Troubleshooting
Visor fogs up easily
Ensure the helmet is properly ventilated. For persistent fogging, install a Pinlock Max Vision insert (sold separately) as the helmet is prepared for it.
Chin bar does not lock securely
Check for any obstructions in the locking mechanism. Ensure the chin bar is fully rotated to the desired position. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
Helmet feels loose or shifts during riding
Adjust the chin strap for a tighter, more secure fit. Ensure the helmet's internal padding is suitable for your head shape; consider checking for alternative padding options if available.
Main visor is difficult to remove/install
Ensure you are following the correct procedure for the quick-release system. Refer to the product manual or online tutorials if needed. Clean the mechanism if it appears obstructed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Visor Adjustment: Ensure the main visor operates smoothly. If preparing for a Pinlock insert, clean the inside of the main visor thoroughly before installation (Pinlock insert sold separately).
- Chin Bar Operation: Familiarize yourself with the mechanism for flipping the chin bar up and down. Ensure it locks securely in both positions.
- Retention System: Adjust the chin strap for a snug, comfortable fit. It should be tight enough that the helmet cannot be easily pulled off but not uncomfortably restrictive.
Compatibility:
- Pinlock Insert: Compatible with Pinlock Max Vision inserts for anti-fog performance.
- Communication Systems: While not explicitly stated, the helmet's interior may accommodate some aftermarket Bluetooth communication systems, though professional installation is recommended to avoid damaging padding or liners.
Care:
- Exterior Shell: Clean the helmet exterior with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Visor: Clean the visor regularly with a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner or simply water. For the Pinlock insert, use a microfiber cloth.
- Interior Lining: The interior lining can typically be removed and hand-washed with mild soap and cool water. Allow it to air dry completely before reinserting.
- Ventilation Ports: Keep ventilation openings clear of debris to ensure proper airflow.
