Sporty Touring Helmet
The full face helmet SHOEI GT-AIR II is the perfect partner for motorbike journeys or extended tours. Its integrated sun visor provides an optimal view at changing light conditions, the extraordinary ventilation a comfortable climate inside of the helmet. Thanks to exchangeable interior pads the helmet is adjustable to individual head shape. The micro ratchet fastener made of stainless steel allows the chinstrap to be closed and opened quickly and comfortably. An optional SRL2 intercom system made by SENA® provides information and entertainment while driving. It can be integrated easily, rapidly and almost invisible to the helmet shell.
Safety
Its outer shell from AIM (Advance Integrated Matrix) in combination with a composite polystyrene core with its elements different in density provide an optimal impact protection.
Thanks to a quick-exchange mechanism the standard CNS-1 visor with its wide field of vision can be exchanged quickly and tool-free. The mist-retardant PINLOCK®EVO lens from the delivery scope of the helmet provides a clear view even under difficult weather conditions.
The chinstrap with micro ratchet system is easy to handle and keeps the helmet in place safely.
In an emergency the cheek pads can be removed easily with the EQRS-system (Emergency Quick Release System) and thus a gentle removal of the helmet is provided.
Wearing Comfort
With 3 different sizes of the outer shell (XS-M | L | XL-XXL) the SHOEI GT-AIR II enables an ideal proportion from helmet size to riders head size. Its relatively low weight relieves the neck muscles and reduces the fatigue effect, whether in sporty short-distance use or on extended tours.
The center pad, designed for an effective ventilation, as well as the tree-dimensional preformed cheek pad and the chinstrap cover are completely removable and washable. Cheek pads and center pads in different thicknesses are available for individual adjustment of the helmet. Detachable ear pads contribute effectively to noise reduction.
The high-quality, integrated sun visor QSV-2 of the SHOEI GT-AIR II is steplessly extendable. Compared with the sun visor of the predecessor model it was increased. It can be replaced easily and tool-free by an optional yellow tinted version with contrast enhancing effect. The extra visor thus ensures optimal sight for many purposes and weather conditions.
Recesses in the ear area as well as prepared cable grooves and installation positions allow a simple und quick mounting of the SRL2 intercom system made by SENA®, available from the SHOEI accessories range.
Ventilation
Several air intakes and air outlets reduce the temperature and humidity inside the SHOEI GT-AIR II. Even when using the helmet in warm countries or in cold season a comfortable climate prevails inside the helmet and the driver is supplied sufficiently with fresh air. The modified visor mechanism allows by a new first step position a gap-width opening of the visor and thus an extra of fresh air.

An integrated spoiler contributes to the aerodynamic performance of the SHOEI GT-AIR II.
