Another best-seller under wraps with the new Hjc RPHA 11 motorcycle helmet…

After Scorpion and its Exo 1000 Air, replaced by the 1200 Air, it is now the RPHA 10 Plus's turn to see its final days. Specializing exclusively in motorcycle helmet manufacturing since 1971, the Korean manufacturer is launching its new racing helmet with the RPHA 11. It is always difficult to improve upon a success story, but the RPHA 11 brings genuine innovations, even if the design remains similar...

Noise levels were the main criticism from the lucky owners of the RPHA 10 and RPHA 10+, (no one is perfect!) so HJC has focused on the ergonomics and aerodynamics of its latest model. The aerodynamic shape of the shell has been redesigned for better sound insulation even at high speeds... The shell is moving to PIM+ (Premium Integrated Matrix Plus) technology, adding an extra layer to increase its impact resistance. Several design innovations are also included, including a double visor lock, an improved field of vision thanks to a wider visor, and cheek pads that can be easily removed in case of emergency to facilitate first aid.

The Korean manufacturer also incorporates Cool Plus technology into this full-face helmet for faster drying of the cheeks and liner, while the air renewal systems are optimized. Indeed, the RPHA 11 features new front ventilation, redesigned side vents, and a multi-position adjustment system for the top vents.

Undoubtedly, HJC earns points with its RPHA 11, with a base price of around €400. Excellent value for money in the sports helmet segment. There is no doubt that competitors will strike back by unveiling new models at the major European motorcycle shows in the coming months.
