SHOEI is expanding its HORNET ADV crossover helmet with a new RECOIL graphic priced at 88,000 yen including tax. Four colourways are offered — matt TC-4 green/black and TC-5 black/silver, plus TC-6 white/silver and TC-10 red/blue — in five sizes from S to XXL, using the AIM+ multi-fibre shell.
What I look at first is the AIM+ shell. Because the HORNET ADV carries a peak visor, it loads your neck at speed, so the balance between shell weight and stiffness really counts. 88,000 yen is not cheap, but four colourways including two matt finishes means you actually have room to agonise over matching it to a jacket.

Four colourways is great news. The TC-10 red/blue clearly leans in a racy direction.
JIS certified with an AIM+ shell. With a peak visor on top of that, there's nothing to complain about.
That peak still tugs at your neck at speed, though. That's a separate issue from certification.
That matt TC-4 green would look superb on a long tour with some gravel roads mixed in.
88,000 yen. Feels like the HORNET ADV drifts further out of reach with every new graphic.
It's out in November, so there's still time to save up. And sizes run from S all the way to XXL.
