BILTWELL HELMET SHIELD GEN 1 BASEPLATE KIT SET

Lane Splitter was the first Biltwell helmet engineered to meet Europe’s comprehensive motorcycle safety standards a decade ago. Today, our feature-rich helmet for high-performance riders is ECE R22.06 certified to ensure high levels of rider safety and protection.

• Injection-molded ABS outer shell is lightweight and highly resistant to impacts
• Aggressively styled shell features front, side, and rear ventilation to improve interior airflow, moisture dissipation, and cooling
• New Dual Density expanded polystyrene (EPS) internal safety shell absorbs and dissipates impact energy without compromising comfort
• Removable BioFoam spoiler on underside of chin bar reduces turbulence below the rider’s face
• Molded urethane chin bar pad dissipates energy during front impact
• Chin strap features brushed fleece Lycra touchpoints for comfort, and a D-ring retention system with red quick-release pull tab for speedy removal
• CE-certified, injection-molded polycarbonate shield features anti-fog and anti-scratch treatments for durability and safety
• Rugged hinge hardware with robust detents allows you to ride with the shield open at slow speeds to increase cooling airflow
• Anodized aluminum washers and stainless-steel hinge screws can be swapped with different colors and finishes to personalize the look of your helmet (hinge hardware sets available separately)
• Removable/replaceable comfort liner and cheek pads are constructed with fleece Lycra and open-cell foam padding to absorb and evaporate perspiration
• New BioFoam head form panel and ventilated polyester padding maximize airflow around your head to ensure coolness and comfort
• Molded EPS ear pockets fit select aftermarket audio accessories
• US DOT FMVSS No. 218 compliant / ECE R22.06 certified

Please follow the instructions in our sizing chart before ordering a new helmet in the same size as your current model. To meet Europe's new, more robust standards for impact attenuation and rider safety, ECE R22.06-certified helmets may fit you more snugly than similar US DOT-compliant models. NOTE: We offer accessory cheek pads so you can fine-tune the comfort of your helmet against your cheeks and face for a perfect fit.

Gringo SV takes the classic motorcycle aesthetic we reenergized ten years ago in a bold new direction. The result is a helmet with world-class comfort, function, and style.

Note: the new Gringo SV will not work with Gringo S shields due to a different closure type. We will have shields for the Gringo SV in different tints available soon!
