FAQs
What does ECE 22.06 certification mean?
ECE 22.06 is the latest European safety standard for motorcycle helmets. It mandates more rigorous testing across a wider range of impact speeds and angles, ensuring a higher level of protection compared to previous standards.
Can I use this helmet for street riding?
This helmet is primarily designed for off-road use and meets off-road safety standards. While it is ECE 22.06 certified, its design (e.g., peak, ventilation) is optimized for motocross. For street riding, a helmet specifically designed for that purpose, potentially with a face shield, is generally recommended.
How do I clean the helmet's interior?
The comfort lining is removable and washable. Hand wash it with mild soap and cool water, then allow it to air dry completely before reinserting it into the helmet.
What is KPA?
KPA (Kinetic Polymer Alloy) is a proprietary blend developed by LS2. It's an ultra-lightweight material with high penetration resistance and excellent energy dispersion, meeting ECE 22.05 requirements while providing flexibility.
How heavy is the helmet?
The helmet weighs approximately 1500 grams, with a tolerance of +/- 50 grams, depending on the shell size.
How many shell sizes are available?
The LS2 MX708 Fast 2 helmet is available in 3 shell sizes to help achieve a better fit for a wider range of head sizes.
Troubleshooting
Helmet feels too tight or too loose.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. The helmet should feel snug with no pressure points. If it's too loose, check the strap adjustment. If it's too tight, consider if a different internal padding configuration or a different helmet size might be necessary.
Lining feels uncomfortable or causes irritation.
The lining is hypoallergenic and designed for comfort. Ensure it is clean and properly seated. If irritation persists, consult the care instructions for washing, or consider if a different head shape is a better match.
Ventilation seems inadequate.
Verify that all ventilation ports (chin, top, rear exhaust) are open and clear of debris. Ensure the internal channeled EPS is not obstructed. Riding at higher speeds naturally increases airflow.
Chin strap adjustment is difficult.
The Double D-Ring system requires a specific tightening method. Pull the loose end through the rings until snug. Ensure the straps are flat and not twisted for ease of use.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Lightweight construction for reduced neck fatigue.
- High safety standards met with ECE 22.06 certification.
- Comfortable and breathable interior for long rides.
- Adjustable peak offers versatility for different conditions.
- Secure and easy-to-use Double D-Ring closure.
Cons
- Lang-oval shape may not fit all head shapes perfectly.
- Weight can be a consideration for extremely long-duration use compared to ultra-lightweight race helmets.
- Off-road focus means it may not be ideal for street touring applications without goggles.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure the helmet fits snugly but comfortably. Adjust the chin strap using the Double D-Ring system to a secure fit.
- If needed, attach or adjust the removable peak according to your riding conditions.
Compatibility:
- Designed to be compatible with LS2 goggles and many other off-road goggle brands.
- The internal structure is optimized for the safety features and should not be modified.
Care:
- Lining: The comfort lining is removable and washable. Hand wash with mild soap and cool water. Allow to air dry completely before reinserting.
- Shell: Clean the KPA shell with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh solvents or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the finish and protective properties.
- Visor/Peak: Clean gently with a soft cloth and mild soap solution. Ensure any dirt or debris is removed carefully to avoid scratching.
- Ventilation Ports: Periodically check ventilation ports for blockages (e.g., mud, debris) and clear them gently with a soft brush or compressed air.
