Streets ahead with new KTM PowerWear helmets

Two brand new helmets from the 2018 #KTM PowerWear catalog are available at official dealers now – X-SPIRIT III and HORNET ADVENTURE.

Exclusive to #KTM from legendary Japanese helmet company SHOEI, the two premium street helmets are perfectly matched to the quality, safety and sophistication of the #KTM Street range to suit the intended riding – in the READY TO RACE style.

KTM X-SPIRIT III HELMET – Premium street #racing helmet
SHOEI's flagship #racing model is created with experience from its MotoGPTM race support. An idea, among others, that derives from MotoGPTM is the aero-shape realizing stable aerodynamic performance – even in high speed range over 300km/h – in addition to maintaining high safety performance. Increasing safety through optimum fit is made possible with four different shell sizes – backed up with optional interior padding thicknesses. For the best possible protection, it features an AIM+ exterior shell constructed from various layers of reinforcing organic and glass fibers to make it light, strong and more resistant to penetration, boosted by an interior made of a multi-part EPS core.

The interior system is created from a totally new idea corresponding even to a sharp, forward-bent posture in track situations with a ventilation system that controls sweating or breathing difficulty in tough riding. SHOEI's new top #racing model appears now on the world´s race tracks with totally new real #racing specifications of shell, shield, interiors and aero-device.

  • The new interior system corresponds to a riding position in a sharp forward-bent posture.
  • Space around mouth is enlarged to ease breathing difficulty or ‘locked up’ feeling.
  • SHOEI Adjustable Inner System makes it possible to adjust wearing angle of helmet corresponding to riding position.
  • Cheek pad ventilation system, newly developed interiors, exhausts hot air in cheek area.
  • 2-D CWR-F visor allows equipment of tear-off film and Pinlock® sheet
  • Double shield lock mechanism avoids unexpected opening of a shield in an accident.
  • 6 air intakes and 6 outlets are located effectively to improve ventilation system.

KTM HORNET ADVENTURE – Aerodynamic all-road Adventure helmet
Striking the optimal balance between on-and-offroad form and function, the #KTM Hornet Adventure offers serious travel #enduro enthusiasts the perfect helmet for all corners of their journey.

Designed to maintain peak performance in every condition thrown its way without compromising the core values of a long-distance touring helmet, the Hornet is a true all-road, all-weather helmet. The outer shell offers high-performance aerodynamics as well as an effective ventilation system. But first of all it keeps the riders head safe as it integrates a multi-ply matrix of hand-laid layers of fiberglass interwoven with organic fibers and resin to offer SHOEI’s strongest, lightest, most elastic shell.

  • AIM+ helmet shell
  • Optimum safety and fitting due to four different shell sizes
  • 3D cushion system
  • Emergency quick release system (E.Q.R.S.) makes removing of helmet easy in an accident.
