LS2 FF805 THUNDER GP AERO FLASH BLACK-06

The LS2 FF805 Thunder GP Aero is a lightweight, high-performance full-face racing helmet developed using LS2's experience in professional motorcycle racing.

Built around a 100% Carbon 6K shell, the Thunder GP Aero combines very low weight with high strength, aerodynamic stability and an exceptionally wide field of vision. A large racing spoiler, track-focused ventilation system and tear-off-ready visor make it equally suited to fast road riding and circuit use. LS2

The helmet is fully ECE 22.06 approved and weighs approximately 1280g ±50g in size M. LS2 manufactures the Thunder GP Aero in three outer shell sizes, helping maintain the correct proportions and reduce unnecessary bulk across the size range. LS2

Carbon 6K Shell

The FF805 Thunder GP Aero uses a 100% Carbon 6K shell.

Carbon fibre allows LS2 to achieve an extremely light helmet without sacrificing the strength and rigidity required from a high-performance racing shell.

At approximately 1280g ±50g, the Thunder GP Aero is substantially lighter than many conventional road helmets, reducing load on the rider's neck during longer rides and high-speed track sessions. LS2

For your product page, I would make CARBON 6K particularly prominent because it is one of the main reasons for the significant price difference between this and LS2's thermoplastic or HPFC models.

ECE 22.06 Approved

The Thunder GP Aero meets the latest ECE 22.06 motorcycle helmet safety standard.

Safety features include:

  • Multi-density EPS
  • Emergency-release cheek pads
  • Double-D ring fastening
  • Reinforced retention system
  • Visor locking button LS2

LS2 UK has also listed the FF805 Thunder GP Aero amongst its ACU Gold Label approved road helmets, making it suitable for relevant UK competition and track-use requirements where an ACU Gold-approved helmet is required. LS2 Helmets Blog

Racing Aerodynamics

Aerodynamics are a major part of the Thunder GP Aero design.

The helmet features a large rear racing spoiler developed to improve airflow and stability at high speeds. Air passing over the shell is managed through the spoiler while exhaust ports assist with ventilation and pressure management.

This makes the FF805 particularly suited to:

  • Sports bikes
  • Fast road riding
  • Track days
  • Racing
  • High-speed motorway riding

LS2 describes the helmet as its top racing helmet developed using knowledge acquired through motorsport competition. LS2

Wide Racing Visor

The FF805 uses a large, wide-angle visor designed to provide excellent peripheral vision — particularly important when riding in a tucked racing position.

The visor features:

  • Wide field of vision
  • Scratch-resistant treatment
  • UV resistance
  • Visor locking button
  • Quick-release mechanism
  • Tear-off compatibility
  • Pinlock MaxVision preparation LS2

Tear-Off Ready

Unlike many standard road helmets, the Thunder GP Aero visor is specifically prepared for racing tear-offs.

This allows compatible tear-off films to be fitted over the visor for track or race use and removed when they become dirty or covered with debris. LS2

That is a feature I'd highlight quite prominently on the GearChange listing because it helps distinguish the FF805 from helmets such as the Challenger II.

Pinlock 120 XLT MaxVision Included

A Pinlock 120 XLT MaxVision anti-fog insert is supplied with the helmet.

Pinlock 120 is Pinlock's high-performance anti-fog system and is particularly appropriate for a helmet designed for demanding road and track use. LS2

So I would state clearly near the top:

Pinlock 120 XLT MaxVision Included

rather than simply saying “Pinlock ready”.

Double-D Ring Fastening

The Thunder GP Aero uses a traditional Double-D ring fastening system.

Double-D fastening is widely used on racing helmets because it provides a simple, secure and infinitely adjustable retention system without the added bulk of a micrometric buckle. LS2

Emergency Release System

The cheek pads incorporate LS2's Emergency Release System.

In the event of an accident, the system is designed to allow trained responders to remove the cheek pads more easily before removing the helmet, reducing the amount of movement required around the rider's head and neck. LS2

Performance Ventilation

The Thunder GP Aero uses a track-focused ventilation system designed to maintain airflow while the rider is moving.

Ventilation includes:

  • Chin intake
  • Frontal air intake
  • Top ventilation
  • Channelled EPS
  • Rear spoiler exhaust vent
  • Breath deflector

The internal EPS channels work with the external intake and exhaust vents to move air through the helmet and reduce heat build-up. LS2

Performance Comfort Liner

The interior is designed for demanding riding and includes:

  • Fully removable liner
  • Washable interior
  • Breathable materials
  • Hypoallergenic fabric
  • Laser-cut foam
  • Removable cheek pads LS2

SportsBikeShop additionally describes the FF805 as using an X-Static silver liner, designed to resist odour and provide a comfortable interior during prolonged use. SportsBikeShop

Multiple Shell Sizes

LS2's current helmet comparison chart specifies three outer shell sizes for the Thunder GP Aero. LS2

The size groupings are:

  • XS – S
  • M – L
  • XL – 2XL

Using different shell sizes keeps the helmet's external dimensions better matched to the rider's head size rather than fitting every size into one oversized shell.

No Internal Sun Visor

The Thunder GP Aero is a dedicated racing-style helmet, so it does not have an internal drop-down sun visor.

This helps keep weight and internal complexity down.

LS2's catalogue instead identifies the helmet as being supplied/configured with an additional tinted visor depending on market/package specification. LS2

For GearChange I'd be careful with the wording here and only advertise:

“Dark visor included”

if you've confirmed your UK stock actually contains one, because package contents can vary by market and colourway.

LS2 Intercom Ready

LS2's current specification lists the Thunder GP Aero as ready for LS2 Intercom. LS2

This is useful for riders wanting communication or navigation audio without moving away from a performance-oriented helmet.

Ideal For

The LS2 FF805 Thunder GP Aero is particularly well suited to riders looking for:

  • A lightweight carbon-fibre helmet
  • Sports-bike riding
  • Track days
  • Racing
  • High-speed road riding
  • Wide peripheral vision
  • Tear-off compatibility
  • Double-D fastening
  • Premium Pinlock anti-fog performance
