The Arai Contour-X Helmet in Proto Red, size Medium, is a touring-focused full-face motorcycle helmet designed for riders who value ventilation, aerodynamic stability, and communication-system compatibility. Manufactured by Arai Helmets, this model combines a lightweight PB-cLc2 outer shell with advanced airflow management and a refined touring profile. The manufacturer part number and vendor part number are both 0101-20467.
Its 3D Arai logo duct feeds two central 10 mm intake ports and can be opened or closed easily with gloved hands using a short-stroke top-mounted lever. The duct is designed to break away in an impact. A three-position sliding chin vent provides open, midway, and closed settings, delivers a high volume of intake air, and includes a replaceable filter. At the rear, the one-piece aerodynamic spoiler and exhaust system uses a three-way switch and three shell-fed ports to draw air efficiently while smoothing airflow around the helmet. This helps improve stability and reduce buffeting, particularly at highway speeds.
The Contour-X shell incorporates Variable Axis System (VAS) visor mounting, which lowers the pivot position and supports a smoother shell shape intended to improve glancing performance. The shell opening is flared to make putting the helmet on and taking it off easier, while additional super fiber belting helps preserve rigidity and provides flatter side areas for convenient intercom installation. The helmet is designed to accommodate an exterior communication system without compromising the inner EPS liner, and a stitched neck-roll opening helps installers conceal excess speaker wiring.
Designed for touring and upright riding positions, the Arai Contour-X offers practical ventilation control, aerodynamic refinement, and easy communication-system fitment. Its lightweight construction, breakaway duct and spoiler components, and glove-friendly controls make it a versatile choice for daily riding, long-distance travel, and highway use.
