Description:

Nothing is more worthy of protection than your own head. But is not that easy. The helmet must fit not only that he should also have appropriate facilities and very importantly, also fell. The selection of helmets is enormous, the price-range as well. Although this should not matter. Savings made here, does so at the wrong end.


Brand new candidates for the favor of the helmet buyer is the X-702 X-Lite. Biker scene had the opportunity to ride the X-702 sample in detail.
According to X-Lite X-702 is a true all-round helmet of the upper class – both for sporty driving as well as for tour fans. End of quote. In order to serve all helmet sizes optimally, the X-Lite is manufactured in 4 shell sizes.

The outer shell is made of composite fiber-called thermoset. The X-702 is available in sizes XS to XXXL. Priced at 399.50 € it goes off, for décor options are available up to € 469.50. A new feature at X-Lite-face helmets, the interior sun visor. Saved when the sun is said glasses and can be operated simply in changing light conditions. Those who like networking, this can be done via the optional in-house N-Com X-702 is already prepared. A total of 6 air vents on the helmet front to ensure a good indoor climate.

Alone four openings on the chin take on the air in the chin and mouth area of the driver and on the visor. To take care of the upper head area two inlets. One for the forehead, the other for the skull. Where air comes in, which should also be able to escape. This take on two holes on the upper back of the helmet.

In the practical test convinced the X-Lite. We had the opportunity to test the helmet on several motorcycles. We did this on a BMW K1300S, an R1200GS Adventure, R1200R and a R1200RT. Hard everyday just test. The helmet fit very well on the head of the tester, but this is obviously a very personal perception.

The X-702 seated comfortably, and has no pressure points. The viewing area is good, actually prevent the well-functioning ventilation and the Pinlock inner visor fogging of the visor is very effective. This will also hear like wearing glasses. What use is a Pinlock the best, if the glasses fog up.

This is where the effective ventilation. Since the glasses simply inched into the helmet and allows a good fit for the journey, the X-702 is a real recommendation for eyeglass wearers. Real progress is the integrated sun visor. With many competing brands has long been standard, X-Lite at the integral helmets now pulls in at last.

The operating side of the helmet works simply and reliably. The sun visor is well within sight and keeps a safe distance from the driver’s nose. The visor is mounted and centered activity. Advantage: the operating forces are low.

Disadvantage: every now and then you close when you open the visor, the pressure switch for ventilation. Move convinced the successful X-702 mainly with its aerodynamics. He is also quiet and stable at high speed in the wind. Turning the head or strong side wind change that. It does not matter whether you’re sitting on a naked bike or a Super Tourer. Accordingly, it is well ordered by the acoustics. As quiet as a whisper of the X-Lite comes through, but longer distances with fast tracks are no problem and get through without hearing loss.
