The Shoei Safety Concept

THE SHOEI HORNET. TAKE IT ANYWHERE.

The new dual-purpose SHOEI Hornet-DS delivers double action!
The Hornet-DS is a SHOEI helmet that is designed for use on all terrains. It unites the advantages of a full face helmet with those of an off road helmet.That means first-rate enjoyment both on and off the road. SHOEI's Hornet-DS is the perfect symbiosis of design and function.

The removable visor shield doesn't just look fantastic, it also ensures perfect aerodynamics and keeps the rider's face safe from flying dirt on off-road terrain. The wedge-shape design reduces drag especially at high speeds. It diverts the airstream to the back of the helmet which reduces wind pressure.
