SHOEI’s proprietary AIM+ technology combines fiberglass with organic fibers that are so strong they can only be cut with a laser. The end result is a stronger, lighter shell that will absorb and distribute the force of an impact safely and efficiently.
5 Shell Sizes
While some of our competitors rely on foam padding for fitting a wide range of customers, SHOEI offers an industry-leading five shell sizes in the new XTwelve to ensure a custom fit for heads between the sizes of XS-XXL
Aero Edge 2 Spoiler
The X-Twelve’s Aero Edge 2 Spoiler helps minimize lift at high speeds, and thus wind drag from the rider and motorcycle. In addition, increased negative air pressure improves exhaust performance to help ventilate the helmet.
Ventilation System
It’s not uncommon for a racing environment to get blazing hot, which is why ventilation was a top priority when designing the new X-Twelve. The X-Twelve features five (5) intake and ten (10) exhaust vents, making it the most aggressively ventilated helmet SHOEI has ever produced. Wind tunnel testing identified the very best locations and shapes of intake and exhaust ports to maximize airflow, including the suction effect that’s created as low pressure air travels toward the rear of the helmet. With this in mind, the X-Twelve features new Side Extractor Vents developed by our MotoGP racing service to help clear warm, humid air from the racer’s face.
Dual-Layer EPS Liner
• Dual layer liner yields enhanced impact absorption by adjusting thickness and density in key areas
Inner liner features air channels for efficient cooling
Impact-absorbing EPS liner throughout the entire chin bar
3D Max Dry Interior System
The X-Twelve is equipped with a fully removable, washable, and replaceable 3D Max Dry liner. SHOEI’s proprietary Max Dry material has been proven to absorb and dissipate sweat two-times faster than traditional nylon interiors. In addition, the X-Twel
