Arai Helmets Americas

The Arai Difference: It’s The One You Can See, Feel, Touch. And Trust. The simple truth is, while there are indeed a lot of helmets out there, there is still only one Arai. Arai name and reputation have been forged over time, the hard way. Which means they haven’t devoted three generations of the Arai family to the singular goal of no-holds-barred excellence just to turn out helmets like everybody else’s.

2008 | 2012 Arai: Corsair V Race Carbon (Creative Consulting / Concept for a Carbon Fiber Corsair Helmet with Inverted Logo)
The Arai Corsair V RC carbon fiber helmet is one of the most special helmets ever offered to the motorcycling community. Each outer shell consists of no less than eleven carefully applied carbon fiber layers. The technology of the new Corsair V RC is based on that of the GP-6 RC car-racing helmet, which was specially developed for Formula 1 use. It consists of an extremely stiff and light carbon fibre outer shell, reinforced with the “Peripherally Belted” construction. The Arai engineers searched and found a superior carbon fiber quality. A mixture of aircraft quality premium carbon fiber with Arai’s own resin and Zylon reinforcement proved to be the perfect mixture for the outer shell. It takes a skilled Arai craftsman a full working day just to make one outer shell. MSRP: $4,000.00
