- Drag = 4% reduction; Lift = 6% reduction (as compared to the RF-1200).
- CWR-F2 Shield System:
- All-new CWR-F2 shield system features improved visibility, functionality, and performance.
- 2D "flat" outside surface combined with 3D technology inside offers an aggressive look with optimized visibility for a more natural view.
- Vortex Generators (borrowed from X-Fourteen technology) improve aerodynamics and reduce wind noise.
- X-Fourteen Data: Drag = 8.8% reduction; Lift = 3.5% reduction; Yawing = 52.4% reduction.
- All-new center locking mechanism reduces risk of accidental openings during high-speed riding.
- Redesigned base plate system boasts smoother shield opening and closure.
- New shield adjuster for easier, more precise tuning.
- All-new window beading reduces wind and water intrusion.
- New, 10% larger DKS-304 PINLOCK EVO lens system improves lateral field of vision thanks to relocated pins outside of the eyeport.
- Ventilation Performance:
- Additional air intake hole in the center / forehead vent improves cool air intake.
- Enlarged exhaust outlet vents improve hot air expulsion.
- A total of six (6) air intakes (two lower, two front, two upper) and four (4) outlets.
- 3D Max-Dry Interior System II:
- Newly designed cheek pads feature more volume on the bottom for greater comfort and reduced wind noise.
- Max-Dry material absorbs and dissipates sweat 2X faster than traditional nylon.
- Soft yet durable lower cheek pad fabric for a plush fit and feel.
- E.Q.R.S. allows emergency medical personnel to easily and safely remove cheek pads from an injured rider's helmet.
- Noise Reduction:
- Advanced shell aerodynamics and all-new, air-tight shield system reduce unwanted wind and road noises.
- New window beading reduces wind and water intrusion.
- All-new, voluminous cheek pads and removable ear pads further restrain wind noise.
- Safety Standards:
- Note: The Shoei RF-1400 ships with a Clear faceshield and uses the Shoei CWR-F2 Shield for upgrade or replacement.
