Shoei NXR 2 - Nocturne TC7

Bought this to replace my old Shoei XR1100, which was a fantastic helmet. This looked great out of the box and made my old helmet look dated. The fit is a little more snug but still very comfortable. Air flow is great. It’s not a cheap helmet but you get what you pay for.

Good quality, fits well, light, great looking.

Not quite the right fit for sadly. Very premium feel and I like the style but it was a little too tight so sticking with HJC

good product I believe you get what you pay for

Firm cheek pads hold it snug to your face, quality chin curtain and vents work well, what is not to like, does everything you expect from a shoei helmet.

Deffo an upgrade from my RPHA 11 .... which was also a great helmet, but this just feels more premium and comfortable. Would recommend!

I purchased this having had HJC helmets prior and I do understand why you pay the price for the premium. The finish on this is lovely, it's snug, comfortable, and considerably lighter weight as well as much quieter than my old helmet. Shout out to the staff at SBS Reading who took a lot of time helping me with sizing and trying different cheek pads. This was, I will note, the only Shoei helmet that was small enough to fit me in a XS in the range, I did try the XXS, but comparatively the XS was too big in other Shoei models. I don't miss the drop down visor tho simply because the quality is so good.

I have been everywhere trying to get an xs helmet and found exactly what I needed at this shop with help from the friendly staff

After trying another (cheaper) brand have returned to Shoei and have no regrets. Excellent fit and finish, you get what you pay for. SBS's excellent try before you buy sealed the deal.

Got it as a 40th gift to myself.
Coming from HJC. My Shoei lighter, sturdy, great graphics. Very happy

Looks great, fits snugly, very comfortable and fantastic quality

The helmet is excellent—great fit, lightweight, and clearly made from high-quality materials. It has plenty of vents, which provide excellent airflow. The matte finish does tend to attract fingerprints, but that’s a minor issue I can live with.

One suggestion for improvement: Shoei could consider refining the external design to make it easier to mount a universal intercom. I was able to install a Cardo Packtalk Edge using the adhesive mount without much trouble.

Overall, I’m very happy with this helmet and would definitely recommend it.

After using sportsbike offer on having the helmet custom fit with slightly larger cheek pads and headliner I can say this helmet is probably the best I’ve owned for comfort. Really impressed with the lightness and quietness usually need earplugs but with this helmet I could go with out but would still use plugs at motorway speeds. Top helmet had a few Shoei helmets now and tried a lot of others. Obviously I have a Shoei head lol

Absolutely love the design of this helmet, but what make this brand of helmet a must buy is you get the right size cushion padding to fit your head . Which makes it a top brand of helmet at a good price ??
