The Arai Contour-X Helmet combines touring-focused comfort, ventilation, aerodynamic stability, and the protective design expected from Arai Helmets. Finished in Diamond Black and offered in an XS fit, this helmet uses Peripherally Belted Complex Laminate Construction (PB-cLc2) to create a lightweight, strong outer shell with integrated ventilation features. Its organic shell profile is designed to promote smooth airflow while supporting the helmet’s overall protective performance.
The 3D Arai logo duct feeds two central intake ports and can be opened or closed easily with summer or winter gloves using a short-stroke lever positioned on top of the helmet. A rear aerodynamic spoiler and exhaust system, operated by a three-position switch, draws air through shell ports while helping smooth airflow over and around the helmet. This design supports improved stability and reduced buffeting during highway riding, helping minimize rider fatigue. The spoiler is manufactured to be thin and light and is designed to crush or break away in an impact.
A three-position sliding chin vent provides adjustable airflow and includes a replaceable filter. The thicker vent actuator is glove-friendly, while the shell is designed to accommodate a communication system externally without compromising the inner EPS liner. Additional super fiber belting reinforces a critical shell area and creates flatter sides for easier intercom installation. A stitched opening inside the neck roll helps installers manage excess speaker wiring for a clean finish. The Variable Axis System (VAS) lowers the visor mounting position to support a smoother shell shape, and the shell opening is flared to make putting the helmet on and taking it off more convenient. The Arai Contour-X Helmet, part number 0101-18134, is a practical choice for riders seeking touring functionality with Arai engineering.
