Shoei Neotec Modular Helmet


RidersDiscount

Recommended Posts

With the popularity of sport and adventure touring at an all-time high, the advancement of the incredibly versatile modular helmet segment was a must for SHOEI engineers. Though still a respected part of their 2012 helmet lineup, the Multitec’s modular design was used as a backbone, analyzed with scrupulous eyes, and tweaked ever so slightly to yield the most progressive flip-up helmet on the market today—the all-new Shoei Neotec Modular Helmet

Boasting improved shell aerodynamics, a wider and taller field of vision, a reduction in wind noise, an internal sun shield, and a fully removable, washable and replaceable liner system, the Neotec is the next level of modular helmet design for today’s hybrid motorcyclists.

The Neotec includes a Pinlock Fog Resistant shield and clear Pinlock insert.

A strategically-placed, three position upper vent for optimal air intake, and uniquely-positioned upper exhaust outlet vents to take better advantage of negative pressure suction—all yielding dramatically-improved cool-air intake and hot-air expulsion.

The anti-fog, anti-scratch inner smoke shield easily drops down via a slide mechanism

Available from Riders Discount, the Neotec available in a Borealis graphic, or a selection of solid colors.  Pictured here is the Anthracite.

Oh man, I've been wanting one of these.They are just so pricey...haven't been able to justify it yet. I currently have the Qwest helmet which is very similar but not modular.

 

I'm on my second season with mine. I love it.

You deserve one! Shoot me a PM if you agree.  :D

Thanks for the post up! Great reviews on these helmets from our customers.

I see these are Snell and DOT certified.  My biggest concern with modulars has always been the fear that, in a crash, the helmet parts would separate leaving your face unprotected.  I assume that Shoei has addressed concerns like these?  Care to post up any insights?

Where did you see they are Snell approved...I have never seen that.  I was under the impression that only one helmet that was modular that got a Snell approval, the LS2. However I find it rather odd that Snell will approve an open face but not a flip up. How can a flip up be worse than an open face.

All the modular helmets we have reviewed have been DOT only. Your concern is legitimate, there is always a possibility with a modular helmet. Shoei is one of the best helmet manufactures in the world and takes safety very serious.
