HJC i71 Niel – Sport-Touring Motorcycle Helmet

The HJC i71 Niel redefines sport-touring excellence with a sleek, modern shell design and a host of rider-focused upgrades. Built to balance comfort, ventilation and everyday practicality, the i71 pushes boundaries for a polycarbonate sport-touring helmet while maintaining a refined, aerodynamic profile.

Advanced Polycarbonate Construction

Constructed using an Advanced Polycarbonate Composite shell, the i71 delivers lightweight strength and enhanced comfort. Three shell sizes are used across the six available helmet sizes, helping optimise weight distribution and fit for a wide range of riders.

Enhanced Ventilation Performance

The redesigned ventilation system features a repositioned top vent and enlarged mouth vents, increasing air intake and airflow throughout the helmet. HJC’s Advanced Channeling Ventilation System (ACS) ensures full front-to-back airflow, effectively flushing heat and humidity up and out for improved comfort on longer rides.

Updated Visor and Sun Visor System

The i71 is equipped with a Pinlock® ready HJ-38 face shield, offering 99 % UV protection and an anti-scratch coating. A new PE (Push / Eject) visor locking system improves safety while remaining easy to operate with gloves. The internal HJ-V12 sun visor features a new three-position adjustment, allowing the sun shield to be moved forward by up to 10 mm for optimal glare protection.

Comfortable Interior and Fit

The interior lining is designed to enhance moisture wicking and quick drying, keeping the helmet fresh and comfortable during extended use. Crown and cheek pads are fully removable and washable, allowing easy maintenance and long-term comfort.

Connectivity and Practical Features

The HJC i71 Niel is ready for second-generation SMART HJC Bluetooth systems, allowing seamless integration of communication units. A quick-release micro buckle fastening system provides secure, adjustable closure for everyday convenience.

Independent Safety Rating

The HJC i71 helmet has achieved a 4-Star rating from SHARP (Safety Helmet Rating and Assessment Programme), offering added reassurance of its protective performance.
