The Arai Corsair-X Helmet in the Doohan Restyle design combines a race-focused shell, refined ventilation, and secure shield technology for demanding street and track riders. Built around an intermediate oval head shape suited to many North American riders, this XS helmet delivers a close, stable fit with the craftsmanship expected from Arai. Part number 0101-18542 identifies this specific Corsair-X configuration.
The PB-SNC2 shell uses Arai’s in-house Z Resin blend to bond multiple layers and materials securely with less resin. Super Fiber and special synthetic reinforcing fibers help create a strong, lightweight structure with excellent glancing-off performance. An internal structural net and peripheral belt add reinforcement while minimizing increases in shell weight and thickness. The internal air channel system improves ventilation by drawing hot, moist air away from the eye-port area through ducted channels behind the cheek pads and exhausting it through the side cowl vents, helping improve rider comfort and reduce fogging.
Arai’s VAS shield system is designed for smooth operation and dependable closure. The shield latch captures the shield securely to help resist unexpected opening, while the lower shield mount position supports a broad field of view. The dual-function lever releases both the side cover and shield pin for efficient shield removal, and the larger latch is easy to operate while wearing heavy gloves. A positive stop helps prevent unintended shield opening, including in the de-mist position. The IC Duct5 ventilation system uses a three-position slide gate to improve sealing, reduce noise, and help limit water intrusion. Its vents are lightly mounted so they can detach during an impact, helping reduce snagging and excess rotational force.
