The LS2 Valiant II 180-degree flip, modular motorcycle helmet builds upon the success of the original Valiant. LS2 has again pushed the envelope of technological development with a newly designed chin bar mechanism that’s smaller and slimmer than the original, making for a more aerodynamic shell. The Valiant II retains all of the features and functions of the original Valiant but with a new more modern look. Our own Jacqui Van Ham walks you through the features.
Three models receive updates for the 2024 model year.
American Honda revealed three of its 2024 model-year 500cc on-road motorcycles, all of which have received notable updates. The announcement includes the adventure-ready NX500 (formerly known as the CB500X) as well as the sporty CBR500R and the CB500F naked bike.
The versatile NX500 is the perfect gateway to adventure riding, and for 2024 it makes strides in performance while shedding weight. A number of improvements to the chassis, suspension, engine and electronics contribute to an improved on- and off-road package. For riders who prioritize performance on the pavement, the sport CBR500R and naked CB500F also benefit from numerous upgrades, most notably redesigned bodywork and a superior electronic interface. The three models have shared a focus on approachable, rider-friendly design; well-rounded performance; and solid reliability.
