DescriptionThe whole story▼
The LS2 FF805 Thunder Carbon holds UNECE 22-06 certification and is built from a 100% carbon fibre shell — meeting the highest safety standard currently required for road and circuit use while keeping the weight down to approximately 1,280 g (size M, ±50 g). Developed directly from motorsport knowledge, this full-face race helmet combines genuine aerodynamic performance with the protection and finish that competitive riders demand.
Key Features
- UNECE 22-06 certified — the current highest approval standard for road-legal helmets in Europe
- 100% carbon fibre shell construction for outstanding rigidity and low weight
- Race spoiler integrated into the shell for maximum aerodynamic stability at speed
- Pinlock Max Vision 120 ready — anti-fog insert included in the box for immediate use
- Emergency cheek-pad release system for safe removal by first responders
- Tear-off prepared visor with wide, scratch-resistant lens and exceptional peripheral vision
- X-Static© Silver antibacterial liner — removable and fully washable
Shell, Safety and Construction
LS2 produces the FF805 Thunder Carbon in three distinct shell sizes, ensuring the geometry scales correctly with head circumference rather than simply padding out a single mould. The 100% carbon fibre outer shell delivers a high strength-to-weight ratio that forms the backbone of the helmet's passive safety. Reinforced double-D retention strap, safety-reflective patches and a fully channelled EPS ventilation system complete the protective package.
Ventilation and Comfort
Multiple forehead and crown vents feed into EPS-channelled airflow paths that move air efficiently through the helmet interior. The removable inner liner is treated with X-Static© Silver to suppress bacterial growth on longer rides, and it pulls out in seconds for machine washing. The emergency cheek-pad release is an important safety feature often mandated at circuit days, allowing medical staff to remove the helmet without risk of neck movement.
Visor System
The wide-aperture visor offers scratch-resistant optics and comes prepared for Pinlock Max Vision 120 — the included insert clips in without tools and virtually eliminates fogging in cold or wet conditions. The visor is also prepared for tear-off strips, a feature track riders will appreciate for keeping vision clear across an entire stint without stopping.
