HJC · RPHA 72 · Full Face
The HJC RPHA 72 Carbon Garen is a premium carbon full-face motorcycle helmet built for street and touring riding. In the Garen MC-1 colorway, it pairs a lightweight carbon shell with wind tunnel-tested aerodynamics intended to reduce drag and help stability at higher speeds.
For day-to-day versatility, it uses the Pinlock-ready HJ-48 visor with an anti-scratch coating, 99% UV protection, improved sealing, and a push-release visor lock. A dynamic multi-step internal sun shield adds quick light management, while the ACS Advanced Channeling Ventilation System uses 2 intake vents and 2 exhaust vents to move air through the helmet and help flush heat and humidity. Inside, the moisture-wicking, quick-drying liner materials, eyewear grooves, and removable pads support long-ride comfort.
Construction
RPHA 72 Carbon uses a premium carbon shell designed to keep overall weight down while maintaining high strength and effective impact dispersion. The exterior is shaped with wind tunnel-tested aerodynamics to help reduce drag and improve stability at speed, with carbon-specific detailing including a gunmetal vent frame and carbon label.
Shield
The Pinlock-ready HJ-48 visor is built around smooth ratchet operation and improved sealing, with 99% UV protection and an anti-scratch coating. A push-release visor lock helps keep the shield securely closed. For changing light, the internal dynamic multi-step sun shield adds anti-fog treatment and distortion-free clarity.
Ventilation
HJC’s ACS Advanced Channeling Ventilation System moves air from front to back using 2 intake vents and 2 exhaust vents to help evacuate heat and humidity and improve defogging. The interior uses advanced anti-bacteria fabric designed for moisture-wicking and quick-drying performance, with removable, washable crown and cheek pads, glasses grooves, and an emergency cheek pad release system.
Aerodynamics
The RPHA 72 Carbon shell is developed with wind tunnel-tested aerodynamics aimed at reducing drag and helping stability at higher speeds. This design focus supports a composed feel on open highways and during longer touring stretches, while keeping the profile aligned with the helmet’s premium carbon construction and finish details called out for the Carbon Garen graphic.
Ventilation
Ventilation is handled by the ACS Advanced Channeling Ventilation System, which is designed to pull air in and move it through the helmet from front to back. With 2 intake vents feeding fresh air and 2 exhaust vents helping it exit, the system is intended to help flush heat and humidity and contribute to improved defogging during changing weather and pace.
Comfort
Inside, the helmet uses advanced anti-bacteria liner fabric designed to wick moisture and dry quickly. Comfort features include removable and washable crown and cheek pads and built-in glasses grooves for riders who wear eyewear. For added convenience during removal, it also incorporates an emergency cheek pad release system. The chinstrap uses a titanium double D-ring closure for a secure, race-ready fit.
