{"product_id":"ls2-ff807-dragon-trax-gloss-hi-vis-yellow-helmet","title":"LS2 FF807 Dragon Carbon Helmet – Trax Gloss Hi-Vis Yellow","description":"\u003cp\u003eHi-vis yellow is the only finish in this range chosen for a measurable reason rather than an aesthetic one, and on a sport-touring helmet that spends its life on open roads it is the version with the strongest argument behind it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA full 6K carbon shell at about 1450 grams\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🔵 A note on carbon that sellers rarely make: carbon is chosen for \u003cstrong\u003estiffness at low mass\u003c\/strong\u003e, not for being unbreakable. It spreads load across a wider area of EPS than a heavier shell of equal strength, and it does so while weighing less on your neck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat it does not do is survive an impact and carry on. Like every helmet, the Dragon is finished after one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSHARP 4 stars — and what that rating rests on\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🔵 Read a star rating as a comparison, not a guarantee. SHARP's \u003cstrong\u003e4 stars\u003c\/strong\u003e tell you the Dragon performed well against other helmets in the same test programme — not that it will protect you in a particular crash, which depends on speed, angle and what you hit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eECE 22.06 approval sits alongside it as the legal minimum every road helmet must clear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eRoad, not race: no FIM homologation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Dragon is a fast road and sport-touring helmet rather than a competition one, and its approvals reflect that: \u003cstrong\u003eECE 22.06\u003c\/strong\u003e, with no FIM homologation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🔵 That is the correct specification for what it is. It only becomes a problem if you take it to a race meeting expecting it to pass scrutineering — use the FF805 Thunder GP Pro FIM for that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the Trax hi-vis yellow graphic\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFluorescent yellow-green does something ordinary paint cannot: it absorbs ultraviolet and re-emits it as visible light, so it returns more light than falls on it. That is why it works hardest in precisely the conditions where a motorcyclist is least visible — heavy overcast, dusk, rain, the low grey light of a European winter afternoon — when there is plenty of UV in the sky and very little useful contrast on the road. It also sits at the wavelength the human eye is most sensitive to in daylight, which is why emergency services across Europe converged on it independently. On a helmet, at head height, above the headlight, it works on the part of you a driver's eye actually scans. 🔵 Two honest costs: it is the loudest finish here and not to everyone's taste, and fluorescent pigment does fade with UV exposure over years — garage rather than windowsill.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Twin Visor System\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🔵 The button catch on the main visor is worth a sentence. A visor that can lift at motorway speed is both a noise problem and a safety one; a positive mechanical lock removes the question, and it releases with a gloved thumb.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBehind it, the internal shield drops with a slider on the left of the shell.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePinlock 120 and a second visor, both in the box\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🔵 The most useful item in this box is the one with the least glamour. A \u003cstrong\u003ePinlock 120 MaxVision\u003c\/strong\u003e insert transforms cold-weather riding, and it is fitted to the visor rather than sold as an upgrade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tinted second visor is the headline inclusion; the Pinlock is the one you will use every winter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eVentilation — documented, not measured\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🔵 What you can rely on for winter riding is the fog control rather than the airflow: a \u003cstrong\u003ePinlock 120 MaxVision\u003c\/strong\u003e insert as standard and a breath deflector fitted, which together handle the condition that actually stops people riding in November.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ventilation layout — carbon chin and crown intakes, channelled EPS, carbon rear exhaust — is documented but not independently measured.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDouble D-ring and the Emergency Release System\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🔵 Two retention details worth knowing together. The \u003cstrong\u003edouble D-ring\u003c\/strong\u003e cannot slip and needs no adjustment because there is no set position — you pull it to the tension you want on each ride.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd the \u003cstrong\u003eEmergency Release System\u003c\/strong\u003e means a responder can take the cheek pads out before lifting the helmet, which is exactly what you want if you are not able to help.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eX-Static lining, head shape and comfort\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🔵 A new helmet should feel tight without hurting. Padding compresses over the first few hours of use and again over the first season, so the size that feels perfect in the shop is usually a size too big by the following summer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuy on the snug side. The Dragon's lining comes out completely, and replacement cheek pads are available if it loosens further with age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere it sits in LS2's range\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🔵 Eight finishes, two price points. The plain matt carbon and the forged carbon share the lower price; the six painted graphics cost slightly more. Nothing else changes between them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose on how you want the helmet to look, not on what you think the small surcharge buys in performance — it buys paint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen something wears out\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🔵 Never clean a carbon shell with solvent, petrol or alcohol. The lacquer over the weave is the UV barrier for the resin underneath, and once it is attacked the damage is invisible at first and structural later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWarm water and a soft cloth is the whole procedure. Spares: visors, Pinlock, cheek pads, lining, vent caps, breath deflector.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIn the box\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLS2 FF807 Dragon helmet — Trax (6K carbon monocoque)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClear main visor, fitted, with button lock and tool-free quick release\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePinlock® 120 MaxVision™\u003c\/strong\u003e anti-fog insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA complete second visor in a tint\u003c\/strong\u003e — 🔵 daylight use only in most European jurisdictions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBreath deflector, fitted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated drop-down sun visor, fitted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReflective safety patch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🔵 No intercom — the helmet is prepared for the current LS2 Bluetooth system; the system itself is a separate purchase\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSize guide\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🔵 Buy tight.
