FAQs

What makes the AGV K6 S the lightest road helmet?

It utilizes a sophisticated construction of Carbon-Aramid fiber in its shell, which offers an extremely high strength-to-weight ratio, allowing for robust protection without the bulk of traditional materials.

How does the AGV K6 S exceed the ECE22.06 safety standard?

The helmet is designed and tested rigorously under the AGV Extreme Safety protocol, which surpasses the impact absorption and structural integrity requirements mandated by the ECE22.06 standard, making it 36% safer than the required levels.

Can I use this helmet with eyeglasses?

Yes, the interior of the K6 S is specially designed to accommodate the use of eyeglasses comfortably, ensuring they do not interfere with the fit or feel of the helmet.

How do I clean the helmet's interior?

The interior padding is removable and washable. Hand wash gently with mild soap and water, then allow it to air dry completely. Avoid machine washing or drying.

Is the AGV K6 S suitable for all seasons?

Yes, its versatile design and adjustable ventilation system make it suitable for various weather conditions. The DrySpeed interior helps manage sweat in warm weather, while the protective shell offers all-season coverage.

What is the retention system on the K6 S?

The helmet features a Double D retention system, which is a secure and widely accepted method for ensuring the helmet stays firmly in place during riding.

Can I install an aftermarket communication system?

The helmet is specifically compatible with AGV's own ARK intercom system. While other systems might be adaptable, compatibility is best ensured with the AGV ARK.

What does 'Collarbone safe profile' mean?

This refers to a specific design feature of the helmet's lower edge, engineered to reduce the severity of impact or injury to the collarbone in the event of a crash.

Troubleshooting

Helmet feels too tight or loose.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. The interior padding may compress slightly over time. Consider trying different size cheek pads or liner if available for a custom fit.

Visor fogs up easily.

Ensure the visor is fully closed or use the micro-opening system for slight airflow. Consider using an anti-fog spray or insert if fogging persists, especially in cold or humid conditions.

Wind noise is excessive.

Verify the visor is properly sealed against the helmet's gasket. Ensure the chin curtain (wind protector) is correctly installed. Riding position can also affect noise levels due to aerodynamics.

Ventilation seems insufficient.

Confirm that all air vents are open and unobstructed. The large chinguard interior is designed for maximum ventilation when vents are open; ensure this is not blocked by accessories.

  • Shell and Exterior: Clean the shell with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish or materials.
  • Visor: Clean the visor regularly with a soft cloth and mild cleaning solution. Ensure the anti-scratch coating is not damaged. The micro-opening system should be kept free of debris.
