FOR EVERY Road
Adventure riding essentially knows no bounds. SHOEI’s Hornet X2 offers serious adventure touring and dual-sport enthusiasts the optimal balance between on- and off-road form and function. Designed to maintain peak performance without compromising the core values of long distance touring, the Hornet X2 is a true all-road, all-weather helmet.
DESIGN CONCEPT SHOEI’s Hornet X2 is a hybrid of a premium road and off-road helmet. The shape of the mouthpiece and chin bar area is designed to improve air intake and ventilation performance, while giving the rider additional air space needed to accommodate heavy breathing during off-road riding. Improving on the traditional off-road mouthpiece, the Hornet X2 provides additional protection in the event of adverse weather. A multi-stage lower vent shutter allows riders to fine tune airflow for most riding conditions.
FOUR SHELL SIZES The Hornet X2 features SHOEI’s exclusive Multi-Ply Matrix AIM+ shell construction. The shell is incredibly strong, extremely lightweight, and comes in four shell sizes to ensure a custom fit for heads between sizes XS-2XL.
EMERGENCY QUICK RELEASE SYSTEM +
Using technology from SHOEI’s racing helmets, the Hornet X2 is equipped with the Emergency Quick Release System (E.Q.R.S.)+ that allows emergency medical personnel to easily remove the cheek pads from an injured rider’s helmet, thus allowing the helmet to be safely lifted from the head without creating unnecessary neck strain.

The Hornet X2 has spent hours of development, both on the road and in SHOEI’s wind tunnel, to achieve the proper balance between aerodynamics and traditional visor functionality. Strategically placed vent louvers work with an innovative wedge shape to allow wind to pass through unobstructed, reducing drag and lift at high speed. Air is pushed into the helmet’s upper air intake for optimal cooling. Quarter-turn screws allow for quick and easy tool-less removal and installation. ©2019 Helmet House, Inc
