RF-1400 Solid Color Helmet Shoei The Evolution of Perfection is a fitting tagline for the longest-standing, most decorated full-face helmet model in the SHOEI lineup, the RF. The process of improving is a constant evolution, and with a world-class team of designers and engineers leading the charge, we pushed our resources and technologies to the brink, utilizing our state-of-the-art wind tunnel facility, extensive array of proprietary materials, and the industry’s most stringent quality assurance practices to develop the all-new RF-1400. SHOEI’s lightest and most compact SNELL-approved full-face helmet model, the RF-1400 has evolved the pursuit of perfection to the next level.
DESIGN CONCEPT

Evolved design, functionality and performance over its predecessor

Wind tunnel-tested and refined aerodynamics and ventilation performance

Compact, aerodynamic shell shape with integrated spoiler

SHOEI’s lightest SNELL-approved full-face helmet model

All-new shield and base plate system for optimized visibility and performance

Noise-reduction technology reduces unwanted wind and road noise
AERODYNAMICS

Developed and refined in SHOEI’s state-of-the-art wind tunnel facility

Compact, aerodynamic shell shape with integrated spoiler

Strategically-shaped air intake and exhaust vents help streamline the overall profile

Boasts impressive improvements in aerodynamic performance and reduces the forces placed on a rider’s head

Lift reduction (upward lift forces): -6%*

Drag reduction (forward drag forces): -4%*
ADVANCED NOISE REDUCTION

Optimal shell aerodynamics reduce wind noise around the helmet

Vortex Generators on the sides of the shield reduce wind turbulence

All-new, airtight window beading provides wind/waterproof seal

New, voluminous cheek pads and removable ear pads further restrain wind noise inside the helmet

The RF-1400 provides an incredibly quiet riding experience without blocking the road’s informative sounds
VENTILATION PERFORMANCE

Wind tunnel-optimized to provide the perfect balance between airflow and silence

Relocated center/forehead vent is equipped with an additional air intake hole for greater airflow into the helmet

Upper air intake holes have been enlarged for optimal performance

New, enlarged exhaust outlet vent for improved hot-air expulsion

Large 3-position lower vent shutter for ease of use with riding gloves

Features six (6) air intake vents and four (4) exhaust outlets
