AGV will present their new lid this weekend, the K6, which they call a comfortable and versatile road helmet, and say is perfect for any use, any motorcycle and any rider. Thanks to the use of technologies derived from the Pista GP R, The AGV MotoGP helmet, K6 combines maximum safety with a unique static and dynamic weight, for increased riding comfort.

The K6 weighs only 1220grams, making it one of the world's lightest motorcycle road helmets!

Every detail of the K6 is designed to offer the highest level of protection and provide the safety a rider needs to fully express themselves in any situation, in total comfort for optimum performance.

The shell in refined carbon-aramid fibre and the five different densities of EPS offer protection that is 48% greater than that required by ECE 22.05 standards regarding HIC and G values, all combined with what AGV says is never-before-seen lightness.

AGV states that the K6 was designed using technologies derived from the AGV Pista GP R, AGV's MotoGP helmet.

The visor mechanisms are extremely limited in size to maximise the area of shell coverage, keeping safety levels at a peak across the entire surface of the helmet. Their construction, in metal, considerably increases the resistance of the visor in case of impact.

The exclusive AGV Ultravision guarantees a peripheral field of 190°, while the class 1 optic visor, completed with 100% Max Vision Pinlock 120 Anti-fogging system, is up to 4.3mm in thickness. The Micro-Lock system allows opening for air flow while keeping the visor securely fastened to the chinguard, making it an integral part of the protection system.

The profile of the helmet is designed to not hit the collarbone in case of impact. The most demanding test bench in racing gives the K6 the characteristic to allow a rider to see the road and obstacles better and ahead of time.

The design of the shell and the rear extractor maximise the aerodynamic performance of the helmet, allowing the K6 to split the air and maintain great stability even at high speed. AGV states that the K6 offers maximum performance whatever the riding position, from the most comfortable to the sportiest, and, being very well balanced, the dynamic weight proves neutral at cruising speed.

The K6, with a weight of just 1220 grams, is one of the world’s lightest road helmets. AGV says the K6 offers unprecedented comfort during riding, reducing fatigue levels to a minimum and thereby increasing active safety. The interior is created with anti-wear, waterproof fabric used for the outer layer and a breathable material that absorbs sweat for the inner.

The ventilation system features five large air vents and is characterised by a central opening, positioned to ensure the greatest possible air flow. Created using technologies developed for MotoGP, the K6 offers quality and technological innovation in a comfortable, lightweight helmet, perfect for any type of use.
