Shoei Helmet Z-7+ Harmonic TC-2

Aero Shape

• High Speed Riding splitting an Air.
• Together with a rider and a motorcycle, a helmet also attacks a wall of air.
• Aerodynamics of a helmet affects directly a load on neck of a rider especially in high speed riding.
• SHOEI improved aero shape firmer and more practical by repeating tests in large wind tunnel facility.

Quietness

• A load on a rider in long time high speed riding is not only a wind pressure. A wind noise invading into a helmet disturbs rider's concentration and causes fatigue when it continues long time.
• Aero shape and airtight shield system minimize occurrence of wind noise itself and airtight interiors block invasion of noise. And also, equipping removable ear pad in ear space of a helmet realized substantial decrease of wind noise.
• Double and triple devices against occurrence and invasion of noise restrain rider's fatigue in long time riding substantially.

Further Advanced Shield Opening and Closing System

• A shield system securing easy and firm fixing and removing as well as high airtightness in variable axis double action mechanism was also renovated in every aspect in Z-7.
• Review of a spring ratio of shield base largely improved smoothness of opening and closing as well as airtightness in fully closed position. When a shield is fully closed, a hook located in rear side of shield nob is locked to a shell and avoids unexpected opening or motions of a shield by wind pressure maintaining high airtightness.

Interiors

A shape or rigidity of bottom of shell may affect may affects tight feeling when wearing or removing a helmet. A cheek pad integrated with distinctive cut line in shell side softened tight feeling in wearing and removing, and improved easiness of motions around neck for rear checking. And also, 3D shaped polyurethane foam pad realized a cheek pad in high volume at the bottom which supports cheek softly and, at the same time, avoids invasion of wind or noise.

3D Full Support Inner Type IV is applied to center pad. While soft napping material is applied to an area which touches a skin in wearing or removing, high moisture absorptive advanced material is applied to an area where effective absorption of sweat is expected while wearing. It realized both soft fitting and comfortable wearing. And also, red mesh material is used partially as an accent to express sporty impression by grey and red colors.

Ventilation System

Air intakes are placed in a center of forehead and both sides and riding wind is lead straight to inside of liner realizing high ventilation performance where a rider may feel wind even inside a helmet. Air outlets with spoiler performance stabilize a helmet in high speed riding and exhaust hot air effectively through 4 outlet holes.

E.Q.R.S.

• It is very difficult for a third party to remove a helmet from a rider in an accident.
• Exclusive tab is equipped to cheek pad of Z-7.
• By pulling this tab, a relief party may remove a cheek pad and remove a helmet easily without hold on a cheek.

*When removing cheek pads for a usual maintenance, do not use E.Q.R.S. tabs.
