{"product_id":"ls2-ff820-rapid-iii-hyper-white-blue-red-helmet","title":"LS2 FF820 Rapid III Helmet – Hyper White\/Blue\/Red","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhite, blue and red in gloss — the classic sporting combination, arranged in the Hyper pattern's long sweeping panels rather than in racing blocks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e1350 grams, and why that is the headline\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1350 grams (±50 g), mid-size shell, no accessories — the industry convention, so the number is comparable with any other manufacturer's. What it buys you is fatigue: neck strain over a long ride is a function of mass, and a hundred grams that mean nothing in a showroom mean a great deal at the end of a four-hour stint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithin our own LS2 line-up only the FF805 Thunder is lighter — and it is in a different price bracket entirely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3 shells, XXS to 3XL. It is the sensible middle ground: not the six-shell extravagance of a race helmet, and a long way from the one-size-fits-all moulding that makes small helmets look inflated and heavy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the Hyper White\/Blue\/Red finish\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhite forms the base, blue does the structural work along the sides, and red picks out the transitions. Because the panels run lengthways the helmet reads longer and lower than it measures, which flatters a shell this compact. The gloss coat keeps the three colours separate and crisp where matt would soften them together, and a white base means this is one of the more visible graphics in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAir in at the chin and the crown\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe layout is chin-and-crown, which is more than several helmets a category above manage. The chin vent is the one that clears a visor in cold, wet weather; the top vent and its ducted EPS are what keep your head cool in August. Rear exhausts do the pulling — intakes alone move very little air.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSeeing out\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA wide aperture, a hardcoat that survives a glove wipe, UV protection and a double-injection seal that keeps rain out of the gap between visor and shell. Tool-free removal, which matters when a bright afternoon turns into a dark ride home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe visor is drilled and pinned for a Pinlock 70 MaxVision insert. The insert itself is \u003cem\u003enot\u003c\/em\u003e supplied — it is part DKS521, sold separately, and we stock it. If you ride through winter, budget for it: an anti-fog lens is the difference between seeing and guessing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat the ECE 22.06 plaque actually means\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWorth a paragraph, because most shops leave it as a line in a table. ECE 22.06 tests up to eighteen impact points where 22.05 tested five, uses more than one impact speed, and — the substantive change — measures rotational acceleration through an oblique drop onto an angled, abrasive anvil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStraight-line impact was always the easier problem. Rotation is what a real crash usually delivers, and it is what damages the brain at energies a shell survives comfortably. The standard also brings the visor and every fitted accessory into the test, and has been mandatory for new helmets sold in the EU since January 2024.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHolding on\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRetention is a ratchet fastener rather than double-D rings. For a helmet you take on and off several times a day that is the practical choice, and it adjusts in small increments so the strap is genuinely tight rather than approximately tight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe bit you actually touch\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA breathable, hypoallergenic, antibacterial lining that unclips and goes in the sink, plus a chin curtain included rather than sold as an extra. The helmet is also prepared for LS2's communication system, with recesses moulded for the speakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOn noise\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWind noise is the specification manufacturers never quote, because it depends more on your bike than on their helmet. What the helmet controls is the seal at the neck roll, the gap under the chin bar and the vents. A chin curtain is fitted as standard, and it is the single most effective piece of quiet in the box — provided it stays in the helmet after you clean it. The Rapid III is a compact, plainly shaped shell with no sun-visor housing bulking out the sides, which helps — but it is a 99-euro helmet and it does not pretend to be a quiet one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat it does not control is the airflow leaving your screen. If a helmet is loud on one motorcycle and quiet on another, the screen is usually the reason. Plugs cost a euro and do more than any shell shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat it is, and what it is not\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere the money was saved: no integrated sun visor, no Pinlock insert supplied. Where it was not: an HPTT shell at 1350 g, ECE 22.06, three shells across eight sizes, chin and top ventilation, a ratchet buckle and a washable liner. An entry-level price, not an entry-level helmet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere it sits in our LS2 range\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEight LS2 full-face models are listed here, and they form a clear ladder rather than a wall of choices. The Rapid III is the bottom rung and the lightest of the lot bar one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eShell\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSun visor\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePinlock\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRRP\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"is-this\"\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFF820 Rapid III\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHPTT\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1350 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e–\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eprepared\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003efrom 99 €\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFF808 Stream II\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKPA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1550 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eyes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eprepared\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003efrom 129 €\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFF818 Storm III\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKPA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1600 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eyes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eincluded\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003efrom 199 €\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFF811 Vector II\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHPFC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1500 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eyes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eincluded\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003efrom 259 €\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen something wears out\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWorth knowing before you buy rather than after: everything on this helmet that wears out can be replaced individually.
