Shoei X-Fourteen Helmet
Shoei X-Fourteen Helmet, The difference between a race win and second-place finish can be decided by mere milliseconds, which is precisely why World Champions like Marc Marquez choose the all-new SHOEI X-Fourteen to help shave time off of every lap. Track certified by the fastest rider on the planet, the X-Fourteen is a proven race weapon for those who aren't willing to sacrifice a single detail when it comes to high-end performance. Like the handcrafted race bikes that dominate MotoGP's premiere racing circuits, every detail of the X-Fourteen was carefully designed, tested and fine-tuned until this final, uncompromised masterpiece was born. The X-Fourteen - When milliseconds count.
