                  Description

                  The Evolution of Perfection is a fitting tagline for the longest-standing, most decorated full-face helmet model in the SHOEI lineup, the RF. The process of improving is a constant evolution, and with a world-class team of designers and engineers leading the charge, SHOEI pushed their resources and technologies to the brink, utilizing a state-of-the-art wind tunnel facility, extensive array of proprietary materials, and the industry's most stringent quality assurance practices to develop the all-new RF-1400. SHOEI's lightest and most compact SNELL-approved full-face helmet model, the RF-1400 has evolved the pursuit of perfection to the next level.

                  Rated 5 out of 5 by from Another Level I did some research and narrowed my choices down to the Shoei, the AGV K6 and HJC RPHA 70. Decided on the RF1400 because of fit, reputation of Shoei quality, and construction and finish. Also liked the idea that it was an evolution of an already highly rated lid, the RF1200. Very impressed with how nicely everything is put together as well as the look of the solid white. My biggest goal was a quiet helmet and this helmet more than meets expectations. I always wear ear plugs as I am bothered by wind noise. With this helmet wind noise has been virtually eliminated and there is almost zero buffeting. It is obvious Shoei had done their homework. I wear a large which fits perfectly when on and is very comfortable. One beef is that when taking it on and off the side bolsters pretty much tear my ears off. I'm expecting that will become less of an issue as the helmet gets broken in. And because the helmet fits snug on the sides I sometimes need to wobble it to get my ears unfolded. These are minor complaints for anotherwise awesome helmet and in reality I prefer to have a snug fitting lid. Glad I paid more than I had planned on....definately worth every penny.

                  Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great helmet with some changes I love this helmet but compared to my previous RF1100s I miss the left side locking mechanism. The front centre one doesn’t work as well and is hard to locate. You can leave it partly open like before unless you open it a bit. It’s not as good. It has better wind noise and aerodynamics though and I like not having vents to open on the back. The front vent is easy to open too while riding. The Pin lock anti fog screen works awesome too. If it wasn’t for the front lock button, I’d give it 5 stars

                  Rated 5 out of 5 by from It is what you can expect of a Shoi full face I found that this helmet is quite snug compared to others of the medium size. But my head size is at the upper limit of this helmet's medium size. So putting the helmet on, and especially taking it off, is surprisingly more arduous than what I am used to. Especially with the chin curtain on. However, once wearing it, it is very, very comfortable. Surprisingly so. The neck padding is considerable and snug. What strikes me most is how quiet it is compared to my other helmets, including the Shoei RF-1200 that it replaces. I also prefer its new central visor latch. However, releasing it does require precise pressure application, which requires getting used to (with a gloved finger). The ease of operation of the top vents is pretty standard, maybe a little easier than some. The visor mechanism has an adjusting system to insure a proper fit between the visor and the seal (not tried). Shoei claims to have improved the visor removal and installation. I found it to be pretty consistent with the RF-1200 and not particularly intuitive. I would says that this helmet is what you can expect if you previously own a Shoei full face helmet. Just more quiet. All in all, I am very satisfied with this helmet, more than any other I've owned. It is removing it that I dread! But maybe I should have gone one size larger. Yet, wearing it, the size feels perfect.

                  Rated 5 out of 5 by from Light & quiet helmet I had my first ride with this helmet and noticed the difference right away compared to my old $125 helmet. I wanted something with a small shell size since I wear an XS. It's light, and the wind noise is reduced a lot! I'll have to get used to the visor release being right in the middle...that was a change to this model.

                  Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome Bucket! I really love the RF 1400 as it fits my head shape (oval) perfectly. It is quieter than my Qwest and the pin lock is vastly improved over the first iteration. No more pins in the periphery which suits me fine. It is a little more snug than the Qwest in the cheek area, but not uncomfortable or causing pressure points on longer rides. Reviews are correct about ripping ears off when taking the helmet off. However, if I take it off sideways, meaning left ear first pushing one side up and toward my right shoulder, no issues at all.

                  Rated 5 out of 5 by from Overall happiness! After having tried so many different helmets, icon, HJC, Sheoi RF SR, for my type of writing which is Sport, the shoei RF 1400 is a bliss. I hear the wind but it doesn't prevent me from hearing the outside. When I ride at relatively high speeds on the highway, with the wind hitting me from all sides, the inside of my helmet is still quiet. Don't misunderstand, when I say quiet it's not like you're in a locked room or a sound proof booth, not going to happen on a motorcycle but the noise level is surprisingly low. As for the other attributes of airflow it's still cold so I'm not quite sure how the air flow is going to work, but that could be an update for a later time. As for the fit it is a bit snug you do have to spread the straps open to get your head through and my my cheeks do squish a bit, all things that are normal on a new helmet but once I'm in there it's a very comfortable even though my cheek are a bit squished. If you have a cardo slim, beware, it is difficult to to insert under the frame but faisable. I did not have the RF 1200 to compare it to. All in all, a joy to ride with this new helmet. Only thing missing is the faceshields that are not in stock in alot of places. Still waiting for the photochromic lense.

                  Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love me a Shoei I bought this as an upgrade from an older model Shoei and they're still my helmet brand of choice. You get what you pay for. The noise reduction is noticeable and the helmet is super comfy, light, and has great vision. Not sure why they added the lock feature at the front. I never had an issue with previous helmets. Dealing with a new lock mechanism while riding is not ideal, but shouldn't be a deterrent. The helmet is excellent with great working features. The shinny black helmet looks matt black in the image but isn't. It is shinny, but sleek.

                  Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome Lid I had a Shoei Qwest helmet that I loved for cruising on my V-Strom but sold it when I got rid of the bike. I picked up a little MT-03 for noodling around the backroads of NS and needed a new helmet so I decided to splash a little more money than I was intending but am glad I did. The helmet is super quiet, incredibly comfortable and lighter than my Qwest (I think?). There are no buffeting or issues with the helmet in clean air at all. It is super smooth and you can tell Shoei put some time in the wind tunnel. Had it out for an hour long drive in 5 degree weather and no fogging at all with the pinlock. the pins used to bother me in the Qwest, but they are so far back you don't notice them at all. it is hard to get off without ripping at your ears, but the benefits far outweigh this minor nuisance. Well done Shoei!

                  what visor does it come with? I'm wanting the transitions one but 314 for it is a bit absurd. if this only comes with clear, I'll buy a bell that comes with the protint visor.

                  Asked by: nicole
                  It only comes with the clear visor and a pinlock. Transition ones are sold separately unfortunately.
