They rarely get to sharp 5 rating (yes there is 1 or 2) but their safety probably comes from the fact that they have a sturdy shell maintaining more of their protective qualities in multiple impacts during a crash and have no critical weakspots like some helmets, are great for glancing off instead of catching. Do any come with mips or an equivalent ? I havent found any if they did they would be an instant buy for me(as soon as i save up)

As I have a round melon, Arai has been my go-to helmet brand for 20 years and I expect to purchase another in the off season. Exceptional brand. Given your ear discomfort - which I share - I have always used a helmet liner. It makes the on/off process a breeze and manages sweat very well.

I have the Rebel and the Chaser X. The Rebel is probably the best helmet ever made, especially for naked bikes. The take on and off effort is literally zero! Extremely comfortable and very quiet. Not the lightest, but well balanced so you don't feel the weight. The downside of the Chaser X is the on and off effort, but it's not that bad. Changing the visor at Arai helmets is a bit a pain in the ass, but I have the "pro shade" system on both, so I don't need to change them. Arai is expensive but probably the best protection for your head.

I personal own 2 Arai helmets, one is Astral X the other is Rapide NEO. The names they are called may differ from the western market. I also own the Shoei GT air. Arai put the protection first attaining the R75 shell shape while you are supposed to know to compromise or give up the other features like internal sun visor that Shoei has offered. Arai is the quietest helmet I have ever used compared to Shoei GT Air. The two brands are both awesome. Arai is focused on protection as a result it has gained the toughest certification such as Snell and approved for F 1 race while the Shoei helmets are more focused on convenient use such as big button on the top and chin for easy on and off vent and internal visor for a bright sunny day ride. Which one you select depends on your preference.

I've gotten back into riding after a ten year hiatus and am looking to buy a new helmet. I still have my Arai Quantum from the very early 90's and it has held up very well despite moving to a SHOEI X11 ( Norrick Abe Replica) many years later. The Arai is a quality item and the liner, strap and other soft furnishings are still excellent in condition, believe it or not. I don't plan to use it as it has expired, but if I had to, it will still serve me well. I tried it on the other day and it still fits, surprisingly enough, despite it being some 20 plus years later. The Shoei wasn't so forgiving. I think my head has grown sideways a bit, and it felt really tight on the side temples. It felt horrible and was starting to give me a head ache. I am considering either a new Arai Pro V or Shoei GT Air II Insignia. I think the Shoei helmets look way better than Arai, but it will all come to how comfortable each is. I hope to take a trip down to a motorcycle apparel shop and try them out. Thanks for the video mate.

They may be the worlds best, however, it's best use for them is in the world of racing. They, due to snell requirements do not have an inner sun shield, or a model known as a modular helmet. Both of those features are something I like, and have crash tested. Those two features did not cause any malfunction of the helmet, but I did replace the helmet as recommended after being crashed.
@mancavemoto
4 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the comment Russell. Yes they do avoid internal visors and modular helmets, but I think its more to do with their own safety requirements rather than meeting SNELL standards, certainly for the 'non-race' helmets. Arai say that to fit an internal visor you either have to remove some of the EPS liner at the front, or make the shell bigger both of which compromise their standards and design. I agree these features don't make helmets unsafe, its just an ethos they want to maintain.

Hi Ricardo, My best advice is to try them both if you can. I think the Arai is a better all around helmet, the ventilation and more importantly control over that ventilation is superior. Its a helmet I could wear all year round, whereas persoanally the Glamster is more spring/summer. I guess the decider is going to be which one fits you the best. Thats the one you'll enjoy wearing more. ps the Arai looks great in modern gray with a tinted visor ;)

It’s a signature look I guess and it helps with the ‘glancing off’. Arai concentrate on making the safest helmet they can and the styling is, i guess of less importance. I like the minimalist look of them, there is something simple and elegant.

Arai is the only helmet that doesn't fit my head shape. A shame because they seek the best quality.

yep a shame, but they are not for everyone. I'm the same with Bell

Not sure where you are located, but we have three shapes in the US market. Round, Intermediate, and Long Oval. See your local dealer.

Same, always owned an Arai, tried others over the years but always end up keeping the Arai, great comfort and ventilation worth the extra money.

I was thinking, that looks good, price a wee bit high but ok, it's an Arai...what, liner isn't removeable?! Poor form Arai. Even my £299 Shoei RYD has a removeable liner. Arai are clearly losing sales because of that head shape thing and this was an attempt to rectify it I reckon...but not with cheap tactics like that. Try again me old cockers.

The skull cap and cheek pads are removable, which to be honest doesn't leave much left in...

Those new visor openers are ridiculous. I don't think pressing it does anything. I just grab the plastic tab on the visor and lift it over the lock as I did before they made this useless flippy thing.
