Quick Facts at a Glance
Verified Safety Snapshot
How this helmet’s verified certifications map to recognized safety homologations and crash testing.
Safety standards compliance is based on official manufacturer documentation and public safety laboratory test results. Always verify regional compliance labels on the physical helmet prior to use.
Verified Fit & Sizing Guide
Head shape profile matching and interactive size calculator based on verified manufacturer dimensions.
Conçu pour un usage Adventure/Dual Sport ; il dispose d'une visière plus large et de points de montage intégrés pour GPS/détecteurs radar. La coupe est généralement universelle mais peut sembler légèrement plus spacieuse à l'arrière par rapport aux modèles sport purs en raison de la forme allongée de la coque.
How to measure
Wrap a cloth measuring tape around your head just above your eyebrows and ears. Pull the tape comfortably snug, read the length, and repeat for consistency.
Design Concept & Background
"Ride Safe"
Découvrez le Shoei Hornet X2 : une alliance entre l'artisanat japonais 🇯🇵 et une visière moulée par injection 3D CWR-F2 avec inserts de lentilles Pinlock EVO. Équipé de générateurs de vortex sur les bords de la visière, il intègre une mousse EPS multicouche à double densité avec canaux de refroidissement internes et des coussinets de joue personnalisés 3D Max-Dry. Idéal pour les motards exigeant une sécurité absolue et un confort aéro-acoustique optimal.

Product Concept & Specifications
Shoei (Japan)Engineering & Biomechanical Safety Analysis
Doté d'une coque en composite de fibres organiques à 6 couches et fibre de verre Advanced Integrated Matrix Plus (AIM+), le Hornet X2 est associé à une visière moulée par injection 3D CWR-F2 avec inserts Pinlock EVO et générateurs de vortex. L'intérieur utilise une mousse EPS multicouche à double densité avec canaux de refroidissement internes et des coussinets de joue personnalisés 3D Max-Dry, incluant des découpes préformées pour une intégration fluide des haut-parleurs Bluetooth.
The Hornet X2 is engineered as a high-integrity Adventure/Dual Sport protective system, utilizing a structural shell constructed from AIM+. This structural layup is engineered to provide progressive kinetic energy dissipation during impact deceleration, distributing localized shock across outer lamina layers while minimizing deformation transfer into the internal multi-density EPS liner.
Certified to ECE 22.05, DOT, Snell M2015 protocols, the architecture is subjected to rigorous linear deceleration limits and oblique impact evaluations to mitigate rotational acceleration forces associated with diffuse axonal injury. For a deeper breakdown of rotational thresholds and impact testing speeds, consult our ECE 22.06 vs DOT vs SNELL engineering benchmark.
Internal geometry follows a Intermediate Oval cranial profile, designed to mitigate focal pressure hot spots across the parietal ridges while maintaining uniform radial clamping pressure along the zygomatic arch. Riders seeking optimal retention stability and break-in guidance should review the cranial aspect ratios and head shape guide as well as our 3D cheek pad density protocol.
Shell composite integrity and acoustic sealing are further optimized through channelized EPS porting and aerodynamic laminar profiling. To learn how shell composites resist stress cracking under prolonged environmental cycling, inspect the composite material comparative matrix.
