2017 marks the 40th anniversary of the epic science-fiction space series - Star Wars. In line with this celebration, HJC Helmets launches the IS-5 Luke Skywalker X-Wing Helmet in addition to their Star Wars branded motorcycle helmet line-up. HJC fulfills its promise to bring the excitement and memorable visuals of the iconic brand to the quality and performance of HJC Helmets.
“The classic character is captured through great attention to detail, right down to the marks of distress and amber sunshield to create remarkable character resemblance. The Luke Skywalker graphic will appear on HJC’s IS-5 helmet in North America (DOT approved) and FG-70’s in Europe (ECE approved). Both are retro-style, open face helmets, with drop down sunshields.” – HJC Helmets.
Motorcycle enthusiasts and Star Wars fans can express their devotion with another of the Star Wars helmets while they ride. Luke Skywalker, the rebel fighter, will come to life on the streets as motorcyclists will be strapping up this open face helmet to their heads. The official, standard product release date and price is yet to be announced soon.
