In fall of 2011 the AX-8 Helmet was replaced by the AGV AX-8 EVO Helmet

The AGV AX-8 DS Helmet is one of the most aggressively styled dual sport / enduro helmets we've ever seen. Built for true on-road and off-road versatility, the AGV AX8 DS Helmet looks absolutely spectacular on a Ducati Hypermotard, KTM Supermoto or any supermotard bike for that matter. Its true dirt-riding counterpart, the AGV AX-8 Helmet features a completely open chin vent and no faceshield while the DS has an open / close chin vent mechanism and an extra large shield. Beyond the looks, the AX-8 Helmets are built from AGV's strong and light Figerglass-Carbon-Kevlar weave which provides extreme safety and are also the lightest enduro helmets we carry by roughly 200 grams. With their aggressive looks and exemplary feature set, the AGV AX-8 Helmets will exceed all of your dual sport and enduro riding demands.
