Finally! I asked HJC years ago when they'd be releasing the helmet FIM riders are using with the statement that clearly the RPHA11 (which I owned and liked) did not meet FIM standards given that their riders were not using it. Back then I was told there was no plans, but this seemed silly. And here we go! Happy to see this since HJCs tend to fit me reasonably well.
I currently use the RPHA11 Pro. I absolutely love HJC. I still have about 2-3 years on my current helmet before the 5 year expiration. Hopefully this will go down in price by then. Thank you for the awesome review. Keep up the great work with Max. And keep kicking ass!!!
For racing, I really like my RPHA 11 Pro... it's got the best line of sight in a tucked position I've ever used/seen. It's super light and really good price...no complaints for my racing needs. Although I may have to consider the RPHA 1N when my current lid expires at the end of this year. Thanks for the review.
Having had a Moto 3 back in the early 1980's like '81/82, I have been prone to Bell Helmets ever since. That was a nice helmet, also had a Simpson, but nothing came close to the Moto3. The brand HJC looks like it improves before our very eyes.
I really never liked my RPHA 11. Especially after I bought my scorpion EXOR1 for half the price and it felt like a much better helmet. Is this new HJC a better helmet than the RPHA11?
This helmet is for sure better than the RPHA 11 Pro. I have ridden in both (did not hate the 11 and loved the graphics) and find the performance and fit of the 1N to be a big step up. - Van
Thanks Brian! I had no idea there was a new FIM homologated helmet coming out, definitely considering it if/when the Arai Regent-X I got from you guys is forced into retirement. Hope you do post a ride review.
I ran the RPHA 11 Carbon and never felt like it was that comfortable, then my next helmet was a much cheaper Scorpion Exo R1 Fabio and thought it was a much better helmet than the HJC. The scorpion had better padding and fit my head so much better for half the price. Now I am wondering if the RPHA 1 is a significant upgrade over the RPHA 11, as I really like the Ben Spies edition RPHA 1 but not sure if I want to trust HJC again
I did a fair amount of riding in the RPHA 11 and liked that helmet. IMO the Scorpion R1 Air and the RPHA 1N are both better than the 11. If you are happy with the Scorpion (for sure one of my favorites) I would stick with what you know. - Van
I had the RPHA 11 Carbon and then bought a Scorpion EXO R1 which was half the price of the HJC and now I wear the Scorpion 95% of the time. Such a nicer, higher quality helmet than the RPHA 11 and it was much cheaper. Does this new HJC have a better fit and finish than the RPHA 11?
Kinda the same here, went from the RPHA 70 to the EXO R1. Fit, finish and quality are just so much better on the Scorpion. Did you find any huge difference regarding airflow and noise between the RPHA 11 and the R1?
@@exklbr you know I don't wear the HJC much at all anymore so I couldn't compare wind noise that well but I would say that EXO R1 maybe has slightly more wind noise just based off of the fact that my Sena comms are more difficult with my buddies with the R1
I kinda have opposite impression on the Scorpion exo r1 carbon. I feel like the liner in the hjc is nicer, and scorpion is physically bigger and bumps into my jacket on shoulder checks. I also had a couple fit and finish issues with the scorpion where the rear spoiler meets the helmet also the center latch on my clear visor was broken upon arival. I don't hardly wear it as the hjc feels better on my head.
@@sportbiketrackgear if you tell me it flows more air and you trust it as much. I'll order it right after you message me. I love the x14 but I like more airflow.
I got 2 X14 and just got the Austin Redbull RPHA1. Haven't got the chance to test the RPHA1 extensively yet but I like it so far. The two X14 I got are matte and I can tell you those paint don't last long. They are very easily scratched. I also like the face shield locking mechanism on the RPHA1. Seems easier to handle and it's definitely safer. Maybe it's just me after all those years, I would need a break from X14 haha.
I have the AGV K1 as my first helmet. Actually the guy I bought the bike from had a 10+ year old HJC 3 sizes too big that he threw in with the bike. That was technically my first helmet but the AGV came in the mail 2 days later so I consider it my first haha. Anyways, I’m not totally satisfied with it and I’m gonna buy a RPHA1N in the spring. Probably a race replica or Red Bull graphic.
The RPHA 1N is a big step up from the K1. IMO the K1 is an excellent first helmet. Make sure to take a measurement and compare it to the size chart to make sure you are getting the right size. We find many riders wear a helmet that is larger than it should be. - Van
Hello Van, I gotta say, I love your gear review videos! Sometimes I even watch for gear that I'm probably never going to buy! Anyway, my question relates to the whole five year thing and track days etc.. If I buy a helmet like the 11 Pro that's been out for awhile, could I end up with a helmet with an old manufacture date that wouldn't give me very much time in the five year window? I'm considering an 11 Pro over the 1N simply because I don't do enough track days to really justify the price difference between the two
Hey Van! Did you already ride in this Bad boy? If yes, do you make a video about it, how it feels? Would be great to hear your opinion about it. For what i‘ve heard, its a top notch helmet and feels great on Track and street riding. But nothing beats your opinion ;) Cheers
Hey Van! Im a little late, but would you rank the new rpha 1 over an arai corsair x? Or, if you compare them, what would go out ahead in your opinion? As always, great Video. Thank you!
I would say this is an excellent helmet but I would like to ride in it before I say it is better than the Arai. From what I have seen so far I would add this helmet to the list of ones I would consider if I am in the market. - Van
I would start with the medium. Wear it without riding in it long enough to know if you are happy with the fit before riding in it. You can always return and get the next size as long as you do not ride in it. - Van
I would try the Large first and see how that fits. Order the helmet and wear it in the house long enough to know if it is going to work before you ride in it. - Van
Is the 1N simply a shell with a single composition EPS and lastly the liner? Was there more to it along the lines of a Bell Flex or Fly Formula? They don’t say much about it on the HJC website.
The EPS in the RPHA 1N is painted black (as most EPS liners are) so I am not able to tell when the liner is removed. When I spoke to HJC USA about this helmet asking for some details on the FIM cert and other points the person I spoke with did not have the info I was looking for. From that call it was clear they feel the FIM cert through the entire size range should give riders confidence in this model because the exact same helmet is being worn in the highest levels of motorcycle racing. - Van
Thanks. Good to hear the US version of the 1N will be FIM and ECE 22-06 approved. The Bell Flex sold in the US is not ECE approved. Only the models sold in Europe. Bell indicated the shell is different. I believe the Snell cert requires a shell that is quite stiff and makes slower speed energy management more difficult. Don’t quote me, that’s from memory.
We have not received any helmets or shields at this point. I am hoping the shields will be available when the helmets are in the next couple of weeks. - Van
Stumbled across this video in my search for naked bike helmets, notice from the other comments that it’s not available yet. Think I’ll add this to my shortlist but I’m really looking for the ultimate naked bike helmet. I don’t know if there is such a thing but I’m searching. Right now you may laugh, I’m riding around in a neo tech 2 ( something to be said about taking a drink of water without removing your helmet) with a brand new street fighter and it’s killing me. some reason it’s fine on my multi-Strada but I get on to Tuono or street fighter It just kills my neck after 100 or so miles. So I’m thinking this ( hjc 1n) or the shark or maybe an agv Corsa R. I must confess I’ve always been in a Arai guy But I’m venturing out to see what else is out there because I feel sometimes if your brand loyal you miss out, I own a few Corsair X for your comparison. It’s a great helmet once on your head incredibly hard to get on and off very comfortable but like I said I’m venturing out. Thank you for your video reviews. I’m going to watch a few more I may be able to answer my own questions. thank you
We have some in stock now but the first shipment left a lot to be desired. Here is a link to them on our site: www.sportbiketrackgear.com/hjc-rpha-1n-helmet/ The solid and the Red Bull are the ones that shipped. - Van
So I measure 57.5 cm around; wear a RPHA 11 Pro in a Medium right now. When these come in stock, would you recommend a Large like you had to get yourself? Or should I get a medium again. (I also have a Carbon Exo R1 Air I wear in a size medium as well for additional reference)
@@pravesh736 I was thinking medium too. AGV helmet sizes made me uncertain because a ML is too big around my neck/head and MS is def too small. I definitely second guess helmet sizes. But the RPHA 11 PRO is my fav helmet so far
We have them listed on the site but I am not sure when they will be in. My expectations are they will arrive when the helmets do in the next couple of weeks. - Van
Red bull graphic its so cool. IYO hows compare to x14? X14 imo its the perfect helmet. Safety and especialy comfort that make x14 great. Unfortunately the inner not so much durable. Mine just two years with occasionally wearing start to crack here and there in the syntetic leather and thr foam start to fall off.
Sorry you had an issue with the X14. Max and I both have X14's that are well over two years old and have not had a problem. If you bought this from us we can work with our rep to get this sorted out. - Van
I do not believe they are but am not sure at this point. This shield is more expensive than the ones they use on the RPHA 11 Pro so I do not expect they will be including it with this helmet. - Van
The Scorpion is an excellent buy and has proven itself to be a great helmet. I do not believe there is a massive difference between the two of them. If you need to keep the extra in your budget go with the Scorpion. - Van
You have any plans for another Gear shootout? Best boots gloves full face helmet etc. Of 2023?I have a couple buddies I'm teaching how to ride and I'm educating them on proper gear, but I cant find an updated central location about different options.
The visor is a step forward and I expect the vents to be very effective. As for the weight this is what it takes to pass the standards they have built the helmet to. Personally I do not find the weight of this helmet to be any issue at all. I have worn a ton of helmets over the years and never really experienced a massive difference with helmets that are a few ounces lighter. - Van
Hi Brian, thought I’d just check in and see how you found this lid after trying it. Still worth it and do you believe it’s better than Shoeis flagship?

@@sportbiketrackgear Looking forward to it as it’s down to these very two lids for my next addition. I can’t really seperate them my just trying them one and the wife won’t let me buy one of each.

ECE is better than Snell... hand down. Snell is kind of a joke, if you look at the testing standards. FIM is even better than ECE...but costly to get approved, from what I understand.
Had my hopes up but as usual you don't take the sale listings down when the items are out of stock. That would be nice when browsing and about to buy if you wouldn't be so lazy. Just remove and repost if back in stock. Most of your x14 listings have been out of stock for more than a year bro. Why are they even on the website still?
You don't take down listings for products that are out of stock but will come back in stock. Doing that is a total disaster. If you do not like the videos or the website please go somewhere else. - Van
@@Problica As a web developer and SEO specialist, you don't ever remove products from an e-commerce platform simply because an item isn't in stock. This causes all kinds of chaos when it comes to search results and indexing. Therefore there is absolutely nothing wrong with keeping an item online.
