Shoei's popular adventure helmet has been renewed as the Hornet ADV 06, now compliant with the latest ECE 22.06 safety standard. Its internal structure has been reworked to upgrade safety performance. UK pricing starts at £529.99. It's the successor to a mainstay model favored by riders who split their time between on- and off-road.

A helmet comes down to the standard and the internals, not the looks. The Hornet ADV meeting ECE 22.06 and getting its interior reworked is genuinely good news for anyone who wears one for long stretches. On an adventure helmet, the feel really changes depending on how the visor and shield operate, so I want to try one on myself and check that too. What matters most is whether the substance actually justifies the £529.99 price tag.

A visor-equipped on/off-road hybrid sounds like a good companion for long-distance touring.

The previous Hornet sold well for a long time, glad the successor supports the new standard.

I've been waiting for SHOEI's Hornet, it's the go-to for off-road helmets.

529.99 pounds, how much is that in Japan? The weak yen is brutal.

The pound's around 200 yen right now, right... so that's close to 110,000 yen?

Going from ECE 22.05 to 22.06 means an internal redesign, basically a full model change.

ECE 22.06 has more rotational impact testing, so if you're buying, the new standard is the only choice.
