DescriptionThe whole story▼
Wearing a race-day livery that honours one of the most celebrated Ducati seasons in superbike history, the Suomy S1-XR GP Troy Bayliss Replica 2005 is engineered to be as comfortable after three hours in the saddle as it is in the first five minutes. Its Tri-Fiber composite shell — woven from Kevlar, carbon fibre and fibreglass — keeps the weight down to approximately 1,400 g (size M), so neck fatigue stays firmly off the agenda whether you are threading through track-day traffic or covering long stretches of open road.
Key Features
- Tri-Fiber composite shell (Kevlar, carbon fibre and fibreglass) delivers an outstanding strength-to-weight ratio at around 1,400 g in size M, reducing fatigue on extended rides.
- ECE 22.06 (UNECE 22-06) and FIM homologation means this helmet meets international racing regulations as well as road-legal standards across Europe.
- Five intake vents and three exhaust vents create a through-flow ventilation circuit that keeps air moving over the head at speed, minimising heat build-up during intense sessions.
- Optical Class 1 scratch-resistant visor with anti-fog Pinlock Max Vision 120 insert provides a distortion-free, mist-free view in all conditions.
- Removable, machine-washable interior lining with an emergency cheek-pad extraction system supports both long-haul comfort and rapid helmet removal after an incident.
- Double-D-ring retention system and camelback preparation round out a feature set developed in collaboration with Pecco Bagnaia and the Ducati Corse factory programme.
Built for the Long Ride as Much as the Fast Lap
The interior of the S1-XR GP has clearly been shaped with all-day wear in mind. The anatomically profiled cheek pads and crown liner are removable in full, allowing you to wash them regularly and maintain the fresh fit that matters most on a four-hour motorway transfer before a track weekend. A discreet spectacle groove accommodates eyeglass arms without creating pressure points, so riders who wear glasses are not forced into contacts simply to enjoy a race-oriented helmet. The race-fit is naturally snug — that is by design — but the soft-touch fabrics and thoughtful padding geometry mean that snugness does not translate into discomfort over distance.
Aerodynamics and Protection
The shell geometry has been refined in collaboration with Pecco Bagnaia's Ducati Corse engineering team, prioritising stability at elevated speeds to reduce the buffeting and lift that can make sustained high-speed riding tiring. The Tri-Fiber layup achieves its rigidity from the selective placement of carbon and Kevlar where impact loads are highest, while fibreglass contributes to the controlled flex that underpins ECE 22.06 compliance. The quick-release visor mechanism allows tool-free lens changes at the circuit, and the Pinlock Max Vision 120 insert seals against fogging even when the pace drops and airflow through the vents decreases.
Troy Bayliss Replica 2005 — The Design
The gloss finish recreation of Troy Bayliss's 2005 World Superbike livery makes this one of the more visually striking replicas in the Suomy range. The graphics are applied beneath a clear lacquer coat for durability, and the colour accuracy against the original race campaign is part of what makes it a collector piece as much as a daily-use helmet. Part number K6SX0002 identifies this specific colourway within the S1-XR GP family.
Fitment and Compatibility
The Suomy S1-XR GP is designed as a universal full-face racing helmet and is compatible with most third-party Bluetooth intercom systems via standard installation — Suomy does not produce a dedicated SRL integration module for the S1-XR GP, so compatibility depends on the specific universal kit and installation method used. The helmet is also prepared for camelback hydration systems, making it practical for endurance events and long-distance road riding alike.
