X-Lite General Manager Mario Giachino takes you through the intricate process of manufacturing the latest design motorcycle helmet at the Nolan Factory near Bergamo, Italy.
Arai, Shoei, X-lite and some Icon helmets are the best-prefer shoei and arai though..love these new videos about how these things are made-the one with the tyres was pretty cool too.
The difference id say with an F1 helmet is they need to stop whiplash the most due to not being able to exit the car. Where as Moto GP the ride rolls and slides etc but F1 is so advanced its insane
I got one imported to the US from Germany for cheaper than Arai and Shoei's. It's not DOT certified but that's ok by me since it meets all the other worldwide testing. I was told it's just never been submitted for testing with the DOT.
Lorenzo should not have gone to HJC. I have his X-Lite replica and hands down it's the best helmet I've ever worn. I knew it was in a league of it's own when I lifted it out of the box.
Are x-lite and nolan the same company? I used to get really confused cause I heard that that was the case but then I thought.. why does Stoner's say Nolan and Jorge's says x-lite...

Great video, thanks for posting.
Have a Lorenzo replica, very well made. Quality is better than my Arai IMO.

I have a x-lite 602 Lorenzo replica and I frickin love it!!!!
Awesome helmets
Amazing 👍
I have x802r ultra carbon, very light helmet and it feels like you did not wear any helmet. Not to mention the expose of carbon works is very great!
Would have liked to see more of the glass work.
i love my xlite !!! :D
Yes, same company, but Jorge use in 2013 HJC Helmets...
what kind of fabric is used? Is it Fiberglass? Nylon? or Kevlar?
Tried many, but my Arai Profile is the most comfortable on my 5 cent head. ha ha ha
I've just got myself an AGV K3 Five Continents, and I would like to see how one of those is made. Any links?

BRING X-LITE TO THE USA!
Price range is 70k to 500k USD?
Question ? What stopped the founder from calling the company Nocchi? Asking for a friend with the last name Nolan
Casey's Helmet was There :D
You mean the loser’s helmet ? Worst sportsman in Motogp so glad he’s gone 👎
Guess they won't be number 27 helmets now
AGV VR #46!
