Kabuto and Quin are joining forces on the KF-2F, a new racing-derived full-face motorcycle helmet that combines FIM FRHPhe-02 homologation and Mips with integrated connected-safety technology. The project is intended to extend the helmet’s role beyond impact protection by adding systems that can help initiate an emergency response after a serious incident.

The KF-2F will incorporate both the Quin Pod and Quin Tag. Quin describes the combination as providing intelligent impact detection, emergency-alert capability and access to a Digital Medical ID. In practical terms, the technology is designed to help raise the alarm after a dangerous event while giving people assisting the rider access to important medical information when it is needed.

A first look before the Milan launch

The helmet will be showcased at the Australian Motorcycle Grand Prix, providing an early public look at the Kabuto–Quin collaboration. Its official product launch is scheduled for EICMA 2026 in Milan. Visitors there are expected to see the KF-2F and experience Quin’s integrated safety technology, while further product details are due to be announced at the launch.

Kabuto and Quin state that the helmet will be available with the applicable certifications for the European Union, the United Kingdom, the United States, Japan and Australia. The announcement does not specify pricing or a retail timetable for those markets, so the certification coverage should not be read as a Greece-specific availability statement.

From passive protection to a connected response

The partnership brings Kabuto’s helmet design, engineering and motorcycle-racing experience together with Quin’s connected-safety technology. Quin’s stated aim is to integrate intelligent safety systems into partner products, reduce the consequences of accidents through faster and more informed emergency response, and use real-world data to identify and reduce risks.

For Kabuto, the KF-2F is presented as a next-generation racing-derived model rather than simply a helmet with an additional electronic accessory. Kabuto, founded in Osaka in 1982 as OGK Kabuto Co., Ltd., says its work covers protective headgear for motorcycle riders and cyclists worldwide. Its stated “Safety Meets Style” concept and “The Quality of Heart” philosophy are being carried into a product that links conventional helmet protection with crash detection and post-incident assistance.
