Arai continues decades of focused devotion to the evolution of helmet design, advancing the art of the purpose of building a better helmet for riders. Features and Benefits Exclusive, adjustable new AirWing is designed to greatly reduce drag, turbulence and buffeting The vent cowls, which are sculpted into the rear-shell shape, exhausts heat more efficiently, and works with the AirWing to greatly add lateral stability at speed The peripheral Belt extends across the forehead area of the shell above the eye opening. It enhances the structural integrity while still maintaining flexibility, low weight, and shell size The most advanced SNC (Structural Net Composite) shell construction Shell is compact and aerodynamic 10mm wider eyeport opening (5mm each side) further enhancing the rider’s peripheral vision The new Series I faceshield looks like a continuation of the shell and requires two small sliders just in front of the side-pods to keep the shield from contacting the helmet’s upper shell when raised Hyper-Ridge flares out instead of in, making it easier to get on than inward-curving shell bottoms. The Hyper-Ridge reinforcement band circles the bottom of the shell, adding shell strength, contributing to a better overall balance and making the helmet rest easier on the rider’s head The DF-10 diffuser has enhanced air inlets to increase airflow efficiently. It also adds a new second air-intake slot in the middle of the diffuser body to create a higher venture effect and further increase the venting of stale air faster The new brow-vent sends incoming air to the temple instead of to the face. It directs air to the ear area missed by many helmet ventilation systems The Dry-Cool Liner has repositioned the rear mounting-snaps closer to the liner bottom for a more secure fit The neckroll is now removable and replaceable, and adds an additional exhaust vent through its bottom via shallow channels in the EPS liner, adding yet another ventilation outlet for the removal of interior air Arai’s Emergency-Release Cheek Pad System is designed to slide out easily with the use of integrated pull-tabs. This makes removing the helmet much easier for trained medical technicians helping an injured rider

Arai Corsair V Okada Ryu Replica Helmet The Corsair is Arai’s flagship model. An Arai helmet is not the product of compromise of a profit point or a board of directors. An Arai helmet is the product of obsession an ongoing obsession to design and build the best helmets possible. This year Arai took the Corsair V Replica helmets to a new level. With several new features you’ll see why the world’s best wear the Arai Corsair V Helmet. Features: Arai’s exclusive adjustable new AirWing reg; is designed to greatly reduce drag turbulence and buffeting resulting in more comfort and additional top-speed. The new wider eyeport required a new wider faceshield. Called the Series I faceshield it is exclusive to the Corsair-V. The new shield fits even more flush against the shell than the previous Corsair’s. Newly equipped with ‘Air In Stabilizer’ an additional air intake between the front and rear intake in the diffuser and large toggles. The Air-In ports help accelerate air out the back increasing airflow without increasing the size of the holes in the shell. The biggest difference between the newest generation of Arai’s Hyper-Ridge feature and its predecessors sticks right out at you: Whereas the previous ridge curved in this one flares out. This results in a larger opening at the helmet’s bottom making the helmet easier to get on and off. Both cheek pads and the neck roll can be removed in seconds thanks to the advanced Emergency Release System. Rescue and medical workers can easily remove the newly designed removable neck roll and the cheek pads by just pulling the pad release tabs. This offers extra room within the helmet making removal of the helmet much easier and minimizing the risk of additional injury. The Corsair-V’s neckroll is now removable and replaceable and adds an additional exhaust vent through its bottom via shallow channels in the EPS liner adding yet another ventilation outlet for the removal of interior air.

The Quantum-2 represents the most sweeping changes made to Arai’s best-selling helmet since the introduction of the Quantum/f in 2000 – that’s nine major upgrades and changes in all. Proof of Arai’s dedication to rider comfort and protection, the Quantum-2’s Super Complex Laminate Construction (Super CLC) shell utilizes the latest generation of proprietary aerospace-fiberglass technology to achieve an exceptionally strong, flexible shell in an extremely lightweight package. Most companies wouldn’t touch their bestseller. But the Arai Way is about building motorcycle helmets the best way humanly possible. The Arai Quantum-2: The best just got better. Features and Benefits Shape Round-oval fit Ventilation Brow Vent Faceshield Ventilation System provides cooling air to the upper face area without making holes in the shell’s critical forehead area or in the impact-absorbing liner material Efficient top-mounted TD-4 vent design is recessed into the shell for a clean look Dual-pivot hinge mechanism makes for a more easily-operable, single-span chin vent gate with increased airflow capacity Breathguard deflects air away to prevent fogging and is the same one featured in the RX-7 Corsair Shell Constructed of Super Complex Laminate Construction (Super CLC), a material 40 times stronger than standard fiberglass in resistance to extension and bending Redesigned aerodynamic shape with molded features that add character, increase shell strength, and enhance the performance of the upgraded side-exhaust vents Similar to the RX-7 Corsair, as a way of minimizing wind turbulence over the shield and onto the shell, the gap between the two has been reduced Unique pull-down chin spoiler to further minimize wind noise As on the RX-7 Corsair and Astral models, the SAJ side pods have a clean, low-profile look and are easy to operate Faceshield Optically-correct, preformed faceshields for better vision and UV-ray protection with less distortion To clear fogging, De-Mist Lock faceshield tab pushes forward to open the shield slightly Interior Fully-removable, washable interior liner and cheekpads Specifications Certifications: DOT; Snell Weight (approx.): 3.4 lbs. / 1537 g Interior Shapes guide Unless otherwise noted, helmet comes standard with clear faceshield.
