HJC RPHA 72 - P.I.M.(TM) Full-Face Helmet, DMS Sun Visor, and SMART HJC 2nd Gen Compatible

The HJC RPHA 72 combines a premium P.I.M.(TM) shell, a 3-stage adjustable DMS sun visor, and compatibility with HJC 2nd Gen SMART. Designed for demanding road use, it combines comfort, aerodynamics, and connectivity in a full-face helmet backed by a 5-year warranty.

HJC RPHA 72 Full-Face Helmet: Aerodynamics and Connectivity for the Road

The RPHA 72 features a P.I.M.(TM) (Premium Integrated Matrix) shell, a high-performance material composed of fibrous fabrics infused with epoxy resin. Its aerodynamic design has been specifically engineered to reduce air resistance and ensure stability, with three shell sizes to refine the fit according to head shape.

In front of you, the Pinlock-ready HJ-48 visor--with a 120XLT lens included in the box--blocks 99% of UV rays and features a scratch-resistant coating. The helmet also features a DMS sun visor, adjustable in three stages for an optimized position based on light conditions, rather than a simple up-or-down mechanism.

The ACS ventilation system distributes air through 4 intake vents and 2 exhaust vents, ensuring efficient airflow for everyday use. Finally, the RPHA 72 is compatible with the HJC SMART 11B, 21B, and 50B second-generation Bluetooth communication systems (sold separately) for seamless integration of navigation, music, or communication with a passenger.

Why choose the HJC RPHA 72?

The RPHA 72 is designed for motorcyclists who prioritize long-distance road riding, with an aerodynamic design intended to reduce air resistance and ensure stability at high speeds. Its 3-position DMS sun visor offers precise adjustment to adapt to changing light conditions.

Its compatibility with 2nd-generation HJC SMART systems also makes it a great choice for riders who regularly use navigation or communication systems while riding, while the titanium double D chin strap and 5-year warranty confirm its premium positioning.

Comfort and Ventilation

The RPHA 72's ACS system distributes air through 4 inlets and 2 outlets, ensuring efficient airflow suited for everyday use. The antibacterial, removable, and washable interior complements this design, featuring interchangeable cheekpads across all sizes and an emergency removal kit for quick removal if needed.

HJ-48 Visor and DMS Sun Visor

The HJ-48 visor provides effective protection from wind and debris while filtering out 99% of UV rays, with Pinlock compatibility and a lens included in the box. The DMS system allows you to adjust the sun visor in three distinct steps, for an optimized position based on light conditions rather than a binary setting.

HJC SMART Intercom Compatibility

The RPHA 72 is compatible with the SMART HJC 11B, 21B, and 50B 2nd-generation Bluetooth communication systems, sold separately. This allows you to add GPS navigation, phone calls, or communication with a passenger without compromising the helmet's sleek design.

Care Instructions

Clean the HJC RPHA 72 visor with lukewarm water and a soft microfiber cloth, avoiding any harsh household cleaners that could damage the scratch-resistant coating.

Since the inner liner and cheekpads are removable, wash them regularly by hand with mild soap, then let them air dry away from direct heat sources.

Periodically check that the titanium double D chin strap and the DMS sun visor system are functioning properly to ensure your helmet remains reliable over time.
