Like previous updates to the RF line, the RF-1200 is a big step up from the outgoing model. One of the more noticeable changes at a glance is the reduction in shell size. The new shell is more aerodynamic and sleek looking than the predecessor thanks to extensive wind tunnel testing. The more compact shell also serves as an indication of the lower weight that the helmet carries. Shoei claims that the RF-1200 is the lightest SNELL approved helmet that they have produced, which feels like an accurate statement once you put the helmet on.

Shoei developed the brand new CWR-1 shield for the RF-1200, and it comes with a number of new features. The first isn’t a feature of the shield itself, but the base plates that hold it in place. The new QR-E base plates secure the shield using pivoting quick-release mechanisms that make shield changes even faster than before. While this might not sound like much, improving on the already great base plates from before is worth noting. The shield itself features reinforcements that run along the top and bottom in order to add rigidity. Ever felt a cheap shield flex when opening or closing it? That is not an issue with the RF-1200. This structural strength also helps keep a better seal around the eyeport. Every RF-1200 comes with a Pinlock insert for the absolute best in fog prevention.

Why the ant?  "Because the ant is the world's strongest animal - small, and hard working." 

 

Marquez is certainly living it up to that with a seven for seven win streak as the MotoGP circus heads to the Netherlands.  Get your piece of replica helmet history by giving MIKE a call today!
