The HJC RPHA 72 is a premium full-face sport-touring motorcycle helmet engineered for riders who demand high-speed stability, lightweight protection, and all-day comfort. Built on HJC's elite RPHA platform, the RPHA 72 delivers meaningful aerodynamic and material advances over its predecessors in a refined, compact shell.
PIM EVO Shell Construction: The exterior is built from HJC's Premium Integrated Matrix EVO composite — a multi-fiber laminate of carbon-aramid fibers, fiberglass, natural fibers, and organic non-woven fabrics. This advanced construction achieves a high strength-to-weight ratio while keeping the shell compact. Three distinct shell sizes and five EPS liner sizes ensure a proportional fit and compact profile across the full size range (2XS–2XL).
Wind Tunnel-Tested Aerodynamics: The RPHA 72 shell was developed in HJC's dedicated wind tunnel, reducing aerodynamic drag by 19.7% and lift by 6.2% compared to earlier sport-touring models — minimizing buffeting and neck strain at highway speeds.
