1. STANDARD
The R2 BASIC conforms to the ECE-R 22.05 standard. This testing norm
guarantees conformity to dened safety standards in respect of impact
absorption, visor, retention system and eld of vision. The certication applies to
all the countries of the European Union and all countries that recognize the ECE
standard. It also guarantees conformity with all insurance requirements that are
important in the event of a claim.
Please note that this R2 BASIC with ECE approval is not certied for the USA,
Canada or any other EU countries. It is only permitted for use in countries where
the ECE standard is valid.
Note:
The only SCHUBERTH helmets that it is legal to use in the USA, Canada
or other non-EU countries are those with the appropriate approval and
technical specications.

3. ANATOMY OF THE HELMET
4. OUTER SHELL
The outer shell of the R2 BASIC helmet combines an aerodynamically optimal
shape with consistent protection. It consists of a special glass-bre reinforced
special duroplastic matrix developed by SCHUBERTH, which gives the helmet
the high level of strength needed for your protection.
Caution:
The safety helmet is designed to absorb the eects of only one impact.
The helmet must be replaced after a fall, accident or any other impact.
5. INNER SHELL
For optimised impact absorption properties, the inner shell of the helmet
consists of several components. The complex multi-segment foam padding of
the main body provides better absorption and dissipation of impact forces and
gives you the highest level of safety.

6. AERODYNAMICS
Wind noise is low with the R2 BASIC, both for race-riding and during long
touring rides. The R2 BASIC produces practically no uplift even at speed.
Note:
Please note that the strong eddy currents that can occur as a result of
the fairing on faired motorcycles may have a signicant eect on the
aerodynamic characteristics of a helmet.
7. AEROACOUSTICS
Various features developed in SCHUBERTH’s wind tunnel make the helmet
agreeably quiet as far as aeroacoustics are concerned, while providing optimised
acoustic feedback when riding. This enhances concentration, especially at high
speeds.
Note:
Aeroacoustic values may vary according to the type of motorcycle, fairing
design, seat position and physical size of the rider.
Caution:
As a result of the aeroacoustic optimisation of the helmet (and the lower
wind noise inside the helmet that comes with it), your actual speed can
easily be underestimated. Please do not rely on your sense of hearing to
estimate your road speed – always check it using your speedometer.

Note:
With faired motorcycles, strong eddy currents occur at the edges of
the wind shadow. These may signicantly reduce the aeroacoustic
performance of the helmet. The motorcycle fairing should be adjusted so
that the turbulence created does not strike the bottom surface of the
helmet.

Turbulators
The patented turbulators on the top of the face shield also
optimise the aeroacoustic properties when riding and
prevent acoustic disturbances in the form of
whistling sounds that can be created by smooth
and straight edges.

8. WIND DEFLECTOR
The wind deector prevents any unwanted airstream into the helmet. In
addition, the noise of driving in the helmet can be further reduced.
Start with one side and repeat the process on the
other side.
Advice:
The t of the bottom of the helmet is
extremely important in ensuring that the
helmet is as quiet as possible. If you have a
smaller collar size, we recommend that you
also wear a scarf.
9. RETENTION SYSTEM
The restraint system of the R2 BASIC consists of the chinstrap. For helmet
sizes up to and including 54/55, a neckband is also available in the neck area.
CHIN STRAP WITH DOUBLEDFASTENING
The double-D-fastener allows for an easy and precise adjustment of the chin
strap.
Closing the chin strap
1. Thread the end of the chin strap through
the double-D-fastener.
2. Pull the chin strap tight and feed the free
end back through the front ring.
