What's going on with Shoei?

In this review, what we want to do is talk through the 2024 Shoei helmet collection, and that's because there are some changes afoot, and we wanted to keep everybody apprised of what is going on; what helmets are being dropped, and what new models are on their way. We are also aware that not everybody understands the differences between the various models in the range, so we thought it might be useful to clarify what the different models. There are, of course, lots of different helmet brands on the market, and so to some people it can all be a bit confusing. It was much easier back in the day. In the eighties, the best stocked motorcycle stores sold every helmet brand. They sold Shoei; and they sold Arai! Of course, even today these two longstanding helmet manufacturers sit head and shoulders above the rest. And in part this is attributable to the fact that both brands are Japanese. Arai opened its doors in 1926. Shoei is by comparison a relative newcomer, not coming onto the scene until after the war, in 1959. But Japanese companies look at the world differently. They look at the future in terms of generations. They are not so bothered about the need to keep investors happy with the latest interim results. In this they differ to companies like AGV, Schuberth, Shark and Nolan, all of which are owned by Venture Capitalists. Arai and Shoei’s longer perspectives, by contrast, mean that they have the luxury of looking to do the right thing, rather than the expedient one. Arai is totally uncompromising. The company has a very set philosophy. Everything they do is predicated on safety. And all things considered, they do probably make the most protective helmets. They believe in smooth, round shells that bounce, or ‘glance off’, rather than dig in when they hit the ground. This can reduce the rotatational forces that can contribute to brain damage. For various, historic reasons, Arai's helmets tend to have thicker shells. These are more resistant to cracking and penetration, but they don't necessarily absorb the energy of an impact as well. Which is why Arai compensates with softer eps liners. Now clearly Shoei is very much about protection too; and indeed the two brands set the benchmark in this regard. Between them, they were responsible for creating the latest FIM standard for international racing; a standard that, in turn, very much informed the latest ECE 22-06 protocol. But Shoei places greater store than Arai does on what is known as 'passive safety'. Shoei recognises that a rider has to be comfortable in a helmet if he is to ride safely, in order to avoid having an accident in the first place. And so Shoei has always worked harder than Arai, and indeed every other manufacturer, to make the fit of their helmets customisable. Of course, the ultimate incarnation of this is PFS, Shoei's latest computer-aided fitting system. With rideability in mind, Shoei equips some of its helmets with drop-down sun visors. To help you stay cool, they make helmets with flip-up chin bars. They care about reducing noise levels, in the way that Arai doesn't. And they make helmets with the facility to integrate a comms. facility; again in the way that Arai never would. Anyway, what we want to do now is talk through all the helmets in the Shoei range. To talk about what differentiates them, and to explain what kind of rider, and for what kind of riding, each helmet is designed for. We are also going to try and give you some insights into what the future holds for some of these helmets. To read our written review, click here - https://www.motolegends.com/reviews/s...
