AIROH presents Aviator 3 Legend, the special edition that celebrates Tony Cairoli’s career, nine-time motocross world champion. Golden graphic and inner linings, laurel leaves, chessboard and the inevitable TC222 are just some of the details that make Legend a collector’s item.
Antonio Cairoli and AIROH, two stories inextricably linked, a relationship based on mutual trust that has allowed a joint growth. To pay homage to this significant relationship, the Italian company presents the special edition of Aviator 3 dedicated to the nine-time world champion: Aviator 3 Legend. Inspired by the countless victories of the AIROH rider, Legend retraces Cairoli’s successes and brings to the market, with a unique interpretation of its kind, the helmet that the champion received as a gift at the end of his dazzling career in MXGP.
A special collector’s edition
Aviator 3 Legend is a collector’s helmet created to make available to the public the product with which Tony Cairoli was surprised at the end of his MXGP last dance. The special edition is characterized by the color gold, to make even more precious and iconographic this helmet dedicated to the most loyal fans, a concrete symbol that consecrates Cairoli’s legendary motocross career.
The Legend graphic contains, among others, the most iconic details of the nine-time world champion: the laurel leaves symbol of victory, the inevitable “TC222” on the chin guard, the chessboard as an emblem that accompanied the rider in numerous victories and races.
And again, a celebratory graphic that includes the representation of Cairoli in action and the nine years in which he became world champion. A work of art with golden inner linings embellished by the laser printed edge that recalls the back of the helmet with the wording “The Legend of Cairoli”. A special edition to collect, accompanied by a special postcard with the autograph of one of the most successful riders in history.
An iconic off-road helmet
From a technical point of view, it is an Aviator 3, a top-of-the-range helmet in terms of features and technology, embellished by the desire to pay homage and honor one of the most disruptive and exciting careers on the world motorcycling scene. The Legend version is available in four shells and it is optimized in terms of performance and shapes, to ensure maximum comfort, even in the most extreme conditions of use.
A product designed for off-road enthusiasts even during the most exciting adventures thanks to the revolutionary AMS2 Plus (AIROH Multiaction Safety System), the AIROH safety system which dissipates the kinetic energy in the case of an impact and features the AEFR (AIROH Emergency Fast Release) for quick removal of the cheek pads in an emergency. Furthermore, the helmet is equipped with the AMLS (AIROH Magnetic Lining System) the system of magnets that guarantees maximum comfort in removing the linings. Aviator 3 has eight air intakes and spoilers with integrated extractors that make the fit of the product comfortable even in the most demanding conditions of use, as does the integrated AHS (AIROH Hydratation System) hydration system. Comfort, technology and safety, guaranteed by the requirements of the ECE 2206 homologation, make Aviator 3 Legend a legendary helmet.
Custom 500 Six Day McQueen helmet and limited-edition apparel will launch collaboration.
Bell is proud to announce a partnership with the Steve McQueen Estate to launch a series of helmets and apparel paying homage to the original King of Cool – the first helmet in the series is a Custom 500 Six Day McQueen, a period correct replica of the helmet McQueen wore while competing in the 1964 International Six Day Trial off road race.
McQueen was selected to represent the U.S. along with a group of other American riders, including McQueen’s close friend and desert racing legend Bud Ekins, as the first Americans to participate in the competition. The number 278 Triumph TR6SC, a Barbour waxed-canvas jacket, and McQueen’s Bell helmet have become synonymous with his role in the race and can be seen in hundreds of now famous photos. It’s a style and look that is still emulated more than sixty years later.
“Bell is excited to partner with the McQueen Estate on this iconic helmet,” said Simon Fisher, Category Manager at Bell. “As the first name in helmets, it only makes sense that Bell collaborates with the McQueen Estate on bringing to life the Six Day racing replica. This collaboration represents a golden era of motorcycling that both McQueen and Bell helped shape.”
Bell will offer this Steve McQueen replica Custom 500 in a beautiful blue and white paint scheme, with subtle red accents just like the helmet McQueen wore during the competition. “Steve” is written in a playful font on the back of the helmet adding a unique touch along with a period-correct 510 visor. The helmet will also come with a special 278 decal featuring Steve McQueen’s name and the 1964 ISDT details, showcasing its authenticity and significance. A special keychain featuring McQueen’s name will also come with the helmet, which will be shipped in a beautiful black leather helmet bag.
“My Dad loved riding motorcycles more than anything” said Chad McQueen son of Steve McQueen. “Much of my childhood memories with my dad revolve around motorcycles. We loved going on two wheeled adventures together and I’m thrilled to see this helmet come back to life considering my dad and I always wore bell helmets. Celebrating my dad’s passion for motorcycling and his role as an ambassador for off road-racing. My kids and I couldn’t be prouder of this partnership.”
“Motorcycling has long been a part of the McQueen legacy,” said Molly McQueen, granddaughter of Steve McQueen. “So many iconic images tied to my grandfather’s legacy include motorcycles. This is a special opportunity to honor his memory through a hobby that is so deeply linked to who he was.”
The Custom 500 itself is an icon – paying respects to the original Bell TX open face helmet, which revolutionized auto and motorcycle racing and paved the way for future innovations in head protection such as the Moto-3. This authentic replica which bears McQueen’s name and is a must-have for enthusiasts, collectors and McQueen fans alike.
Available online at (Bell Cruiser 2023 Custom 500 SE Adult Helmet (Steve McQueen Blue/White) | Bell Helmets) in sizes S through XL, and at Bell authorised retailers. The Custom 500 Six Day McQueen will retail starting at £199.99 this Spring. Along with the helmet, a limited run of apparel featuring imagery of McQueen will be available for short time.

Mathisse is back on stage, the masterpiece that since 2002 has been able to tell the values of AIROH: innovation, design and quality.
This iconic helmet has made versatility its strong point, having three different adjustable configurations according to the driving conditions. The innovative chin guard rotation system also allows the easy and quick passage from one setting to another, with a simple wave of the hand.
Considered one of the AIROH masterpieces, the Mathisse helmet stands out for its lines, which draw a unique and captivating style. The first version, dates back to 2002, was an absolute success thanks to its pioneering composition. When products are well designed from the earliest times, it is right to keep them and adapt them to changing tastes and needs, and so in 2021 Mathisse has assumed its current and innovative shape, completed with technologically advanced systems and able to look boldly to the future.
A helmet with a multifaceted soul.
Versatility is undoubtedly the real strength of the Mathisse helmet, which can be worn in three different configurations to adapt to different driving and climatic conditions. The design was designed to allow the rider to easily and quickly change the configuration of the helmet with a simple wave of the hand: the innovative chin guard can rotate 180 degrees, a mechanism independent from that of the visor, stopping at the rear part of the shell, allowing the helmet to be more aerodynamic without neglecting elegance. In this way, Mathisse can be worn in different driving and climatic conditions, adapting to both urban use and touring. The rider can change the setting of the helmet at will, wearing it as a full-face helmet, so with the chin guard closed, as a “jet” with the chin guard opened, or in the third configuration without the visor, to underline a vintage-chic look.
The quality of the details of the made in Italy helmet.
The AIROH Mathisse is the ideal ally to accompany the rider along every route, guaranteeing maximum visibility thanks to a wide range of integrated elements: to protect from sunlight, the helmet is equipped with the Sun Screen Visor, while the Pinlock lens, already applied to the product, prevents fogging. Furthermore, the visor can be positioned in anti-fog mode, which allows the recirculation of air, in addition it is entirely covered with anti-scratch protection, also available in different colors, spare part able to customize the product in consideration of different tastes and needs.
Ideal for touring enthusiasts, Mathisse is Bluetooth Ready and it has also the Stop Wind included, to limit air infiltration and to protect against the cold. Thanks to perfect balance and optimal weight distribution, the Mathisse helmet guarantees comfort even on the longest journeys. Furthermore, by rotating the chin guard 180 degrees, the helmet takes on a perfectly aerodynamic and balanced shape, thus guaranteeing perfect balance even when the helmet is open emphasizing the pleasure of riding.
Mathisse has removable and washable inner lining, made of hypoallergenic fabric and pleasant in contact with the skin.
Last, but certainly not least, the double P/J homologation with which Mathisse is equipped guarantees the user maximum safety in whatever declination the helmet is used.

The super subtle Matt Silver ‘Special’ and the contemporary ‘Bend’ Matt Black/Red and Black/Blue/Red/White ‘Sport’ graphics – both of which complement many of 2023’s new machines – bring the modular Advant range to a total of nine colour options.
Tested to the latest ECE 22.06 safety standard and certified P/J for use in the open and closed position, the Advant is very versatile and easy to live with.
The opening mechanism is designed to keep the Advant’s outline compact and neat, while making operation simple too. The chin bar sits close to the face, so there’s less leverage on the neck and head when opening and closing, and the visor automatically lifts with the chin bar, in one one fluid movement.
The visor is Pinlock-ready and an intuitive release mechanism enables swift and smooth removal and refitting.
Comparable to much more expensive high-end composites, the exclusive Kinetic Polymer Alloy shell is strong, flexible and light – the Advant tips the scales at only 1650 grams.
Venting front and back, with channelling through the multi-density EPS inner, brings instant airflow when needed. The breathable Comfort Lining is removable and washable, and the cheek pads feature an Emergency Release System.
Practical additions like the Drop-Down Sun Shield and quick-release Micrometric Metal Buckle make life comfortable on the road too.
The LS2 Advant comes – as standard – with a Pinlock insert, Helmet Bag, Carrying Rucksack and Air Bag Support for easy cleaning and maintenance. Prices start from just £249.99 in solid colours. Graphics and special colours, as shown, are £269.99.

Developed with LS2’s MotoGP, Moto2 and Moto3 riders, the Challenger Carbon combines the latest race technology with first class safety and practicality for road riding.
There are three new colour options for 2022;
One of two new ‘Alloy’ graphics combines Solid Carbon, luxurious titanium/chrome overlays and splashes of orange, that are striking in their own right, but would also complement colours found on many bikes.
The sporty White/Blue/Red ‘Alloy’ option looks the part with a wide variety of motorcycles using that colour combination.
‘Fold’ – the third new graphic – will definitely draw attention, with its eye-catching Hi-Vis Yellow highlights.
In all colour options, the Challenger C’s 100% high-grade wide weave carbon fibre shell offers high penetration resistance and energy dispersion, yet weighs just 1350 grams. As you’d expect, it’s both ACU Gold and ECE 22.05 certified for track and road use.
The shell comes in three outer sizes, for the smallest, lightest possible helmet in each fitment range, and has a long-oval shape to follow the natural contour of the head.
A quick-release, wide aperture visor comes with a Pinlock Max Vision Anti Fog System as standard and there’s a flip-down internal sun visor too.
Dynamic Flow-through Ventilation keeps the wearer cool and comfortable, while the breathable, hypoallergenic liner comes with Emergency Release System cheek pads.
The LS2 Challenger Carbon is available in sizes XXS – 3XL and retails at £329.99 for the new graphics. Prices start at £299.99 for the ‘Solid’ Carbon option.
It comes complete with High Quality Bag, Pinlock Max Vision, Tinted Visor, Reflective Stickers and an Air Bag Support.

The super bold Black/Yellow/Red combo of the new Drop scheme is definitely for those who like to get noticed; for riders who like a more subtle look, the Velvet blends Black and Rainbow shades for sophisticated style. Fans of a more contemporary colour palette get two versions of the Sprinter in up-to-the-minute Black/Red/Titanium scheme and the uber cool Matt Black/Silver/Cobalt.
The Storm’s outer shell is made from KPA (Kinetic Polymer Alloy) that provides high penetration resistance and energy dispersion, yet is also lightweight.
For a crystal clear view, the quick-release visor is 3D optically correct and comes with a Pinlock anti-fog shield as standard. Behind that sits a drop-down sun visor.
Dynamic Flow-through Ventilation – with adjustable intake ports at the chin and crown, internal channels and exhaust ports – keeps the rider cool and comfortable.
The hypoallergenic liner is made from moisture-wicking fabric and is removable and washable for season-long comfort and freshness. A Chin Curtain also features, to help keep out wind-blast and noise inside to a minimum.
The LS2 FF800 Storm is available in sizes XS-XXXL and sells for £149.99 in the latest graphic options. Retail prices start at just £129.99 for solid colours.

The new X.WRL (Wild Rally) is a helmet designed for Hard Enduro practice, extremely light and comfortable and with impressive ventilation. This new model has unique features that make it the ideal choice for those looking for a helmet for more technical and difficult terrain incursions and wear of off-road goggles.
All X.WRL models are molded with the brand-new X-PRO CARBON technology, which provides an incredible weight of just 1250 grams.
The new shell design helps to reduce weight and makes the fit compatible with the use of neck brace. The new visor and peak closing button is designed to withstand the most extreme conditions, with a new shape and swiveling screw-shaped fitting, which can be easily placed or removed with no tools or with the help of a simple coin. Along come the additional ventilations in the eyebrow area, which allow to increase the flow of fresh air in the forehead area and around the head and easy to operate even with winter gloves. One of the unique features of the X.WRL is the Goggle Strap holder integrated in the back of the helmet, allowing a better placement of the off-road goggles and to remain hanged in the helmet when not in use.
All the X.WRL range includes double-D Ring with the new X-LOCK magnetic button to facilitate final fastening of the chinstrap.
Finally, the X.WRL comes with several other features that are included in the X.WED2 VAAL, top-of-the-range version such as the Cheek Pads with X-HIDRO system with smart straps that allow you to attach the tube and the mouthpiece of the hydration bladders or the removable chin strap covers for greater cleanliness and comfort.
The clear visor and the Iridium Red visor for road use are both boxed and prepared for Pinlock use.
Another of the great news and innovations for 2022 is the brand-new TRANSITIONS visor – A VISOR PREPARED FOR ALL TYPES OF CONDITIONS.
Transitions® smart light visors automatically adapt to the ideal hue in any light condition – staying clear at night and smoky when exposed to strong light – providing a safe and comfortable ride, at night or any time of day.
The brand new X.WRL will feature ATIKA – a Hard Enduro graphics available in 4 color versions: Grey.Neon, Black.Grey, White.Red and Orange.Gray and in the plain version X.WRL PLAIN in white color – all – in X-PRO CARBON fiber.

Touratech Aventuro Traveller Carbon with new décor variant.
With its synthesis of flip-up and offroad helmet, the Aventuro Traveller offers travellers the maximum in functionality and comfort. This premium helmet is now available in two exciting new décor variants.
Red, white, blue – these three colours evoke associations with legendary desert races for rally fans. They conjure up memories of the unforgotten Gilles Lalay’s Honda XL 600 or the NRX750 ridden by Neveu and Orioli, not to forget Auriol’s winning Boxer with the discreet stripe in BMW motorsport colours on its impressive tank or – not so long ago – Nani Roma’s 900RR. And in the modern era of adventure bikes, the HP2 ridden by the flying Finn, Simo Kirssi. No matter what the brand or era, the combination of these three colours stands for clarity, focus and an unconditional will to win.
The new “Sport” décor of the Touratech Aventuro Traveller Carbon continues this great tradition. This design combines the iconic colours with the cleanness of contemporary graphic language. In this attractive outfit, the Touratech Aventuro Traveller not only matches numerous current touring suits perfectly but also the many colour combinations of adventure bikes from a wide range of manufacturers.
“Sunrise” is the name of the second new décor for the Aventuro Traveller. Powerful sunshine yellow contrasts with striking rock grey and classic black. This variant is tailor-made for motorcyclists who appreciate elegant understatement. The discreet graphics emphasise the powerful shapes of the helmet shell and, in their technical reduction, reflect the uncompromising functionality of the Aventuro Traveller.
While the “Sunrise” décor sets a striking accent in combination with classic black rider equipment, it is the logical choice for complementing the grey-yellow design of the Compañero suits from Touratech.
The Touratech Aventuro Traveller Carbon
The Aventuro Traveller is an innovative modular helmet made of ultra-light carbon, specially designed to meet the demands of adventure tours. Even when wearing gloves, its chin section can be easily unlocked and flipped up.
The clear visor, which is easy to operate thanks to its central locking system, has a Pinlock™ anti-fog inner surface, which ensures optimum visibility even in unfavourable weather conditions. When the sun is low in the sky, a fold-down visor protects the eyes.
Helmet peak and air inlets are matched for maximum airflow around the head. There is a large, closable air inlet in the chin section for cooling the face.
The skin-friendly Coolmax™ lining can be removed for washing, as can the neck and cheek pads. The quick-release fastener of the chin strap is particularly easy to use and extremely robust thanks to its stainless steel components.
When developing the EPS dome of the Touratech Aventuro Traveller Carbon, not only were the needs of spectacle wearers taken into account but all the necessary cut-outs for the integration of communication systems were provided as well.
In addition to the new Sport and Sunrise versions, a black version of the Touratech Aventuro Traveller Carbon is also available. All helmet sizes from XS to 3XL are available for 679 Euro.
The original idea, Claude Morin’s creative idea, propelled the new ROOF brand in 1993 by imposing on the market the very first unprecedented motorcycle helmet equipped with both a unique pilot visor and a removable Mask that could be fixed on the shell: the ROADSTER.
To be avant-garde implies to constantly reinvent oneself. This is why ROOF innovates again, yet preserving the initial idea and presents a new ROADSTER with a patented magnetic locking system of the Mask. A unique feature on the market ensuring optimum ergonomics and secure locking onto the shell. This Mask also has a ventilation that can be easily closed to suit all weather conditions.
Urban by nature, its ease of use intuitively meets the requirements of the city rider.
It is available in different IRON configurations that match the visor color and the touch of color on the Mask together.
ROADSTER technical features
> High-quality fiberglass shell
> Removable MASK with patented magnetic locking
> Top lip seal for a perfect sealing
> Silent Lining comfort. Adjustable cheek pads and inner lining
> Antibacterial, ventilated and Quick Dry fabric
> Facial ventilation and top Venturi effect air vent
> 4 points chinstrap for an increased stability
> Micrometric chinstrap buckle
> Polycarbonate injected, anti-scratch and antifog visor
> IRON version delivered with an additional visor
> NP Jet certification with its Mask
Available in 7 sizes
Public price advised: €299 (SOLID) and €349 (IRON) Official launch March 2022

LS2’s Explorer C dual-sport helmet gets a trio of fresh colour options for 2022. The all-new ‘Extend’ schemes blend the Explorer’s premium carbon fibre finish with eye-catching graphics.
Matt Military Green for a rugged outdoors appearance
Matt Red, the ideal partner for the colour schemes on popular dual sport bikes
Matt H-V Yellow for riders who like to stand out, with style still on-point
Its 100% carbon fibre shell uses a high grade 6k twill weave and the whole helmet weighs in at just 1380g. It comes in three outer sizes, for a close fit that keeps size and weight to a minimum, with a long-oval shape and laser-cut foam inserts that follow the natural contour of the head for a snug and comfortable fit.
An extra wide aperture gives a clear view on trails and in traffic. The visor is Pinlock-ready (a Pinlock anti-fog shield is included as standard to take care of fogging), and a drop-down sun visor instantly deals with glare.
The peak is adjustable and can also be removed, transforming the Explorer C into a sport style helmet for road or track use.
Dynamic flow-through ventilation keeps the rider cool and comfortable. The breathable hypoallergenic liner adds to the luxury feel and is removable and washable for season-long freshness.
For complete peace of mind, an Emergency Release System allows first responders to take out the cheek pads in seconds, so the Explorer C can be removed with minimal movement of a fallen rider’s head and neck.
The MX701 Explorer C Extend comes in sizes XS-3XL for £319.99. It is also available in a solid carbon finish (RRP £299.99).
It’s supplied with a Special Helmet Bag, Pinlock Max Vision insert, Reflective Stickers and a Peak.

2022 Arai Isle of Man TT limited edition RX-7V Evo design revealed at MCN London Motorcycle Show.
After two long years away the Isle of Man TT fuelled by Monster Energy are back in 2022, from 29th May to 10th June. The spectacular celebration of motorcycling, raced over 37.73 miles of real roads, draws competitors and fans from around the world. It’s also an event that runs through Arai’s DNA; many off the TT racers wear Arai for the performance, security and comfort at high speeds that the brand’s helmets offer while Arai puts great effort into supporting all Arai wearers in the Isle with service and spares.
For nearly 15 years Arai has marked its commitment to the event – and each TT – with a very special version of its RX-7V racing helmet, with paintwork designed by the legendary Drudi Performance. Beautiful and extremely collectible, the Arai IoM TT Limited Edition is a sell-out every year and for 2022 is based on the new, range-topping ECE R22-06-approved RX-7V EVO helmet.
With classic Black, Red and White paint paying homage to the 2007 original the key components always present – since the very first – are the Triskelion (three legs of man) unified by a bold ‘double’ TT logo across the top, chequered flag motif and Ellan Vannin (Isle of Man in Mananese) subtly tucked away on the opposite side.
It will be officially unveiled to the public by TT hero Michael Dunlop at the MCN London Motorcycle Show, at 12 noon GMT on Friday 11th February. For those unable to make it to ExCel, Arai Europe will livestream the launch on their Facebook channel.
Arai Helmet (Europe) will also have a small stand at ExCel with some previous TT designs on display and staff to answer any questions.
Ingmar Stroeven, Arai Helmet (Europe) B.V. Managing Director: “How we’ve missed the TT! After two long years away from the wonderful Isle of Man it’s great to make plans to be back. It means so much, to us at Arai Helmet (Europe) and Arai Japan. And we know how special it is to racers and fans alike, which makes the reveal of the 2022 IoM TT Limited Edition RX-7V EVO a highlight of our year. Drudi Performance has never disappointed and for 2022 has blended classic with contemporary, to stunning visual effect.”

The new integral helmet from the Italian brand arrives in the 2022 collection with ECE22R06 homologation, providing an interesting option to match any off-road motorcycle.
Like a classic Italian dish, the new GIVI helmet has been created through the combination of the best ingredients and careful preparation, ensuring that every detail is authentic in its essence. Countless hours of research and development, undertaking the most demanding tests, have given rise to the integral 60.1, the first GIVI off-road model to already comply with the new ECE 22R06 regulations. To create a product apt for cross, enduro and supermotard riders, the Italian company have not only worked on laboratory tests, but have also subjected the helmets to one of the best testing grounds in competition: Use by Simone Cristini, 2021 Enduro World Champion in the Junior category.
GIVI are one of the most renowned Italian motorcycle and biker accessories brands, and that is not the result of mere chance. In the working process used by the brand from Brescia, listening to the needs of those who use the products is of fundamental importance. This is why the company have decided to complete their Adventure line with an item that is in high demand, akin to adding an extra dish to an already mouthwatering menu: The 60.1, a new off-road helmet for those who like to venture away from the asphalt.
This helmet has been conscientiously developed with the latest technology and the best materials, anticipating the mandatory enforcement of the new ECE 22R06 European homologation that comes into effect on July 3rd, 2022. This means that the resistance tests passed by the 60.1, including impact tests at different speeds – on screens, in rotation, on inclined surfaces or by particles at high speed – are more complete and demanding. In addition, all accessories, such as visors, also have this approval.
The GIVI 60.1 off road integral thus offers a boost in safety. It is made with high quality components: Resistant materials such as the technopolymer used in the shell. Its interior, designed with an attractive camouflage finish, is made of hypoallergenic, removable, and washable fabric. In addition, it includes an adjustable visor, ‘Double D’ strap closure and front, upper and chin guard air intakes, along with a rear extractor.
The 60.1 is apt for the discerning palates of all types of dirt bike, enduro and supermotard enthusiasts. This full-face helmet has more than 10 multicoloured aesthetic variants, based on current trends and divided into two versions of its graphic theme: Fresh and Invert. This allows this model to be perfectly combined with the official colours of any off-road motorcycle brand. It is available in sizes ranging from XS to XXL at €139 MSRP (VAT Inc.).
These, and many more GIVI items, provide a boost for motorcycle trips and make any journey on two wheels a more comfortable experience.
