Product Details
The HJC RPHA 1 Ben Spies Silver Star MC21 is a race-focused full-face motorcycle helmet carrying HJC’s official Ben Spies Silver Star graphic. Built on the FIM-homologated RPHA 1 platform, it combines a PIM+ composite shell, track-developed aerodynamics and an HJ-35 racing visor system for riders who prioritise high-speed performance.
Who It’s For
This helmet is for track-day riders, racers and road riders who want HJC’s original RPHA 1 competition platform with the Ben Spies Silver Star design. Its purpose is racing performance, so riders seeking a quieter touring helmet, internal sun visor or everyday convenience features may prefer a more road-focused model.
Key Benefits
- Competition-developed protection: ECE 22.06 road approval is combined with FIM FRHPhe-01 racing homologation.
- PIM+ composite shell: HJC combines carbon fibre with aramid, fibreglass and organic reinforcement for a strong, compact race shell.
- Stable at speed: The shell, spoiler and visor-locking system were developed for high-speed riding.
- Focused airflow: Five intake vents and four exhausts move heat and humidity through the helmet.
- Track-ready vision: The HJ-35 visor accepts tear-offs and the supplied Pinlock 120 insert.
- Serviceable comfort: Silvercool crown and cheek pads are removable and washable, with emergency-release cheek pads for trained responders.
