Pick i71 if
You want a sport-tour full-face, internal sun shield, and you never ride with the chin open. Pinlock is in the listing — still confirm the insert number on the visor.
Pick i91 if
You commute, tour, or wear glasses and actually use a flip-up. Look for P/J dual homologation on the label (open-face legal with the bar up in many EU/UK contexts — verify on the shell).
Do not buy on graphic alone
Fluoro yellow is visibility; black Viz is stealth. Same shell family in the listing copy. Fit still wins — HJC intermediate-oval is not Shoei.
Compare both product pages, keep region on UK, then checkout on the retailer.
FAQ
What is the difference between the HJC i71 and the i91?
The i71 is a full-face helmet and the i91 is a flip-up (modular). Both are ECE 22.06 sport-touring lids from HJC. The choice is about the type of helmet you want rather than one being a newer version of the other.
Is a flip-up helmet worth the extra money over a full-face?
It depends on how you ride. A flip-up is more convenient for glasses, fuel stops, and commuting because you can open the chinbar without removing the helmet. A full-face is typically lighter and has fewer moving parts. Pick on use case, not on the discount.
