Two exclusive SHOEI helmets join the official Street catalog.
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.

  • Exclusive for KTM by SHOEI
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.
