One of the most technologically advanced helmets for street riders and clearly one of the best-looking helmets on the market. Shoei's innovation and cutting-edge design makes the RF-1000 a premium sports helmet.
Aerodynamically superior, the RF-1000 full-face sport helmet delivers wind tunnel proven high speed performance and ventilation. A perfect fit is achieved through removable and adjustable cheek pads and 3D comfort liner system which doesn't shift during high speed riding.
Another facet of the legendary Shoei fit is the use of 4 shell sizes, and 5 sizes of EPS liners. The RF-1000 shell is of Shoei's proprietary AIM + (Advanced Integrated Matrix Plus Multi-fiber Technology), which embeds ultra strong organic fibers into fiberglass. The result is a lightweight, yet strong, outer shell that is better able to absorb and disperse the force of an impact.
The RF-1000. Protection, at its technological best.
Aerodynamic Shell Design
- Aerodynamic properties are maximized through extensive wind tunnel and rider testing
- The Aero Wing dramatically reduces drag and lift coefficients, thus diminishing rider fatigue and increasing performance
Semi-Dual EPS Liner System
- Two-layer liner offers unmatched ventilation with internal channels and exhaust ports throughout the helmet
- Integrated Upper Air Intake minimizes air turbulence and maximizes air stream in all riding positions
- Outlet holes in the Aero Wing allow warm air to be exhausted
- The lower air intake provides an additional source of air flow
- The neck outlet vent allows for effective air exhaust
Lightweight AIM+ (Advanced Integrated Matrix Plus Multi Fiber)
- High performance fiber materials are combined with extremely elastic organic fibers to create a shell structure that is ultra lightweight, rigid and resilient
Anti-Fog System
- The lower air intake provides air flow that helps to diminish shield fogging
3D Interior Liner
- Removable interior cheek pads available in optional sizes for a custom fit
- Chin strap cover can easily be removed to allow for cleaning or replacement
Standard Chin-Strap Clip
- Neatly secures chin strap
CX-1 V Shield and Lock System
- Q.R.B.P. (Quick-Release Base Plate) allows tool-less shield removal
- A wide, three-dimensionally curved shield offers increased peripheral vision and optical clarity
- Scratch-resistant coating
- 99% protection from harmful UV A & B rays
- A pre-set lever can easily lock the shield in place to prevent it from opening unexpectedly

To measure for your correct helmet size, measure the circumference of your head, like a headband, one inch above the eyebrows, above the ears. Then match the inch measurement to chart below. If you fall between sizes, choose the next larger size. Your motorcycle helmet should fit snugly but not overly tight.
