When a helmet becomes legendary

This year X-lite brings to the market an entire range of Replica Legend, giving fans the possibility to re-live the excitement.
Five different helmets faithfully reproduce the designs worn by Giacomo Agostini, Mike Hailwood, Franco Uncini, Johnny Cecotto and Marco Lucchinelli, legends who between them have won 28 world titles.

The X-801RR is a top-end vintage style available in three sizes (XS/S, M/L, XL/XXL) with composite fibres enabling the comfort and performance of a racing helmet.

The internal lining uses Unitherm fabric, in microfibre and new-generation elasticity, allowing active control of perspiration.

Removable cheek pads include Steadyfit technology with three thicknesses, guaranteeing a greater sense of comfort with even cheek pressure while on the track.
Two front air intakes utilise the Aerodynamic Ventilation System (AVS) and increase air flow that is then distributed through a special channel in the inner shell.
Two rear extractors expel warm air.
The Advanced Lower Ventilation (ALV) system allows for air intake in two positions and eliminates visor fogging.
The visor, a General Electric Lexan ® OQ, is scratch resistant and has a flat surface with tear-off feature.

A Double Action visor rotation mechanism means air draught can be adjusted and visor can be de-fogged both a low-speed or while stopped.
The X-801 RR Replica Legend is available from 489 euro.
