{"product_id":"ls2-ff808-stream-ii-fury-black-hv-yellow-helmet","title":"LS2 FF808 Stream II Helmet – Fury Black\/Hi-Vis Yellow","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe same Fury blocks with fluorescent yellow doing the work instead of red. Against black the contrast is far stronger, and the bright area is large enough to matter in a mirror.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFour stars from SHARP\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSHARP is the British Department for Transport's helmet safety programme. It buys helmets anonymously at retail, destroys thirty-two of them per model across five impact zones and three speeds, and publishes the result as a star rating. It is the closest thing European riders have to an independent verdict, and most helmets never appear on it at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Stream II was tested in September 2024, in its ECE 22.06 form, and rated \u003cstrong\u003efour stars out of five\u003c\/strong\u003e. At 6 m\/s and 7.5 m\/s every zone scored the maximum. Only at 8.5 m\/s — the hardest impact in the programme — did the left and right sides drop to three, while the crown and front held five. On a helmet in this price bracket that is a genuinely unusual result.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sharp.dft.gov.uk\/helmets\/ls2-stream-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"\u003eRead the full SHARP result for the LS2 Stream 2\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the Fury Black\/Hi-Vis Yellow finish\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFluorescent yellow exists because human eyes find it before anything else, and under a gloss coat it appears to glow rather than simply to be bright. That is the trade against a matt hi-vis finish: more luminosity in direct sun, slightly less even readability from wide angles. Fluorescent pigment fades faster than ordinary paint under UV, so keep this one out of a sunny window when it is not on your head.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMulti-density EPS — the part you never see\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMulti-density EPS is the specification behind the star rating. A single-density liner is a compromise — too soft and it bottoms out in a hard impact, too firm and it transmits a light one straight through. Building the liner from several densities lets each area of the head be tuned separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTwin Visor: two screens, one shell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwin Visor means the tinted screen lives inside the shell rather than in your jacket pocket. A slider drops it, a slider retracts it, and it disappears entirely when not in use. It is the single most useful thing on this helmet after the safety rating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eLaser-cut foam\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe comfort padding is laser-cut rather than die-cut. That sounds like marketing until you feel the edges: laser cutting leaves a clean, sealed face on the foam instead of a crushed one, so the padding keeps its shape longer and does not shed at the seams.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat the ECE 22.06 plaque actually means\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery helmet on this page carries ECE 22.06, and it is worth knowing what that plaque now costs a manufacturer. The standard it replaced, 22.05, struck the shell at five fixed points and measured only how hard the head was stopped. 22.06 strikes up to eighteen points, at more than one speed, and adds a test that did not exist before: the helmet is dropped onto an angled anvil faced with abrasive paper, so the laboratory can measure how far the head is \u003cem\u003espun\u003c\/em\u003e as well as how hard it is stopped.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat matters because rotational acceleration is what tears the bridging veins between brain and skull, and until 2021 no European standard measured it at all. 22.06 also tests the visor, and any accessory fitted to the helmet is tested in place rather than removed for the exam. Since January 2024 a new helmet cannot legally be sold in the EU without it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFit and shell sizes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe range spans XXS to 3XL across 3 shells. That split is what keeps proportion sane — a small size sits close to the head instead of ballooning, and a large one is not wrapped around a shell that was never sized for it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAirflow\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVentilation is top intake, chin intake and exhaust port, plus a breath deflector. The chin vent is the one that clears a visor on a cold morning; the top vent is what you open in August. Honest about the limits: LS2 do not list vent channels moulded through the EPS on this model, as they do on the Rapid III and the Storm III.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Pinlock question\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis screen takes a Pinlock 70 MaxVision anti-fog insert — the wide version that reaches the edges of the aperture instead of leaving a frame in your peripheral vision. It is not supplied. Part DKS521, and worth ordering with the helmet rather than after the first foggy commute.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHolding on\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRetention is a ratchet buckle on a reinforced strap — set once, one click thereafter, gloves on. A reflective safety patch is fitted to the shell as standard, which on a dark helmet at dusk does more than any amount of paint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e1550 grams\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1550 grams, measured the way manufacturers measure it: a mid-size shell without accessories. It sounds abstract until you convert it into load. A head weighs roughly five kilos; the helmet adds around a third of that, and every bump in the road multiplies the lot through your neck. The difference between 1550 g and the 1600 g of the FF818 Storm III is not noticeable in the first hour and is very noticeable in the fifth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor context inside this range: just 5 helmets we sell are lighter, and every one of them costs more.\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 Stream II carries a sun-visor housing, which widens the shell slightly at the temples compared with a helmet that does without 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\u003eWhere it sits in our LS2 range\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEight LS2 full-face models are listed here.
