The Arai Contour-X Star Helmet in Large combines touring-focused airflow, aerodynamic stability, and Arai’s advanced shell construction for riders who demand comfort and protection on extended street rides. Manufactured by Arai Helmets and identified by manufacturer and vendor part number 0101-18582, this model features a PB-cLc2 outer shell with an additional super fiber belt for lightweight strength and a smooth, integrated profile. The shell is designed to support convenient communication-system installation without compromising the inner EPS liner or protective structure.
Feature: The 3D Arai logo duct feeds two central intake ports and uses a short-stroke lever that can be operated with summer or winter gloves. Its open or closed position can be identified by the logo, and the breakaway design is intended to separate during an impact. A three-position sliding chin vent provides open, midway, and closed settings, delivers substantial intake airflow, and includes a replaceable filter.
Feature: The one-piece rear aerodynamic spoiler and exhaust function is operated by a three-way switch and draws air through three shell ports. Inspired by the DF-X2 design used on the Corsair-X, it is repositioned and tuned for touring to help smooth airflow over and around the helmet. This can improve high-speed stability and reduce buffeting, particularly during highway riding. The spoiler is manufactured to crush or break away during an impact, helping preserve the helmet’s protective performance.
Feature: Arai’s Variable Axis System lowers the visor mounting position to create a smoother shell shape around the temples, supporting improved energy-glancing characteristics. The shell opening is flared to make putting the helmet on and removing it easier, while the neck roll includes a discreet stitched opening for routing excess communication-system wiring. The Large size is intended for riders whose head measurements match Arai’s sizing requirements; verify the manufacturer’s fit chart before ordering.
