The new HJC i41 open-face helmet is built for uncomplicated everyday riding. Its compact Advanced Polycarbonate Compound shell, long clear visor, integrated sun shield and efficient ventilation make it a natural match for scooters, commuters and relaxed urban motorcycles.
Four HJC i41 colours are currently listed at Moto Central for pre-order. Nardo Grey, Pearl White and Semi Flat Black are priced at £99.99, while the Solix MC21 White, Blue and Red graphic is £129.99.
A Compact Helmet for City Riding
Open-face helmets remain popular because they provide a broad field of view, easy communication and a feeling of openness that suits lower-speed urban journeys. The i41 packages those advantages into a modern shell with a substantial clear visor, so the face receives more protection from wind, insects and light road debris than it would with a short visor or traditional jet helmet.
Three shell sizes help keep the i41 proportionate across its XS to XXL range. This is particularly worthwhile on an open-face helmet, where excess shell bulk is visually obvious and can affect balance. HJC's Advanced Polycarbonate Compound construction aims to combine impact resistance with manageable everyday weight.

HJ-51 Visor for Urban Visibility
The i41's clear HJ-51 visor provides 99% UV protection and carries an anti-scratch coating. Its extended coverage helps shield the eyes and face while retaining the visibility associated with an open-face design. A smooth, stable ratchet enables easy positioning when the rider wants more or less airflow.
Behind the clear visor sits the HJ-V13 internal sun shield. Because it is integrated into the shell, it can be deployed when needed without carrying sunglasses or changing the main visor. Riders who wear prescription eyewear also benefit from dedicated glasses grooves within the lining.
One Intake, Five Exhausts
HJC's ACS ventilation system uses one intake and five exhaust outlets. The approach prioritises the movement of warm, humid air away from the rider's head, complementing the natural airflow available around the open lower face.
The refined vent structure is designed for durability as well as cooling. For stop-start commuting, the ability to raise the main visor adds immediate airflow, while the channelled system continues working through the upper shell when the visor is lowered.
OEKO-TEX Antibacterial Interior
The lining uses OEKO-TEX antibacterial fabric selected for hypoallergenic performance, moisture wicking and quick drying. The crown liner and cheek pads can be removed and washed, helping the helmet remain fresher during warm-weather use and frequent commuting.
A micro buckle provides convenient fastening for riders who may put the helmet on and remove it several times each day. The fit should remain secure around the crown and cheeks, and the helmet should not roll freely when pressure is applied at the rear or visor edge.
Open-face protection and its intended use
The i41 offers ECE 22.06-certified head protection and useful visor coverage, but it does not have a protective chin bar. Riders should consider their routes, speeds and preferred level of facial coverage when choosing between the i41 and a full-face or modular helmet.

Who Is the HJC i41 For?
The i41 makes most sense for scooter riders, urban commuters and motorcyclists who prefer the visibility and airflow of an open-face helmet. The long visor and internal sun shield make it more practical for everyday road use than a minimalist jet helmet, while the washable lining supports regular warm-weather riding.
At £99.99 for the three solid finishes, it also provides an accessible route into a current-standard HJC helmet. The Solix graphic adds a brighter option for riders who want the convenience of the same platform with more visual personality.

Moto Central Verdict
The HJC i41 keeps its priorities refreshingly clear. It is compact, well ventilated and easy to live with, while the long visor, internal sun shield, washable OEKO-TEX lining and three shell sizes add genuine value. For urban riders who specifically want an open-face helmet, the launch range offers a strong blend of everyday practicality and accessible pricing.
