The Arai Corsair-X Schwantz 30th Anniversary Helmet combines race-developed protection, advanced ventilation, and a secure, precise fit in an intermediate oval shape designed to suit many North American riders. Finished in a commemorative Schwantz 30th Anniversary design, this Large helmet is built for riders who demand dependable performance, refined comfort, and intuitive operation on the street or track. The Arai Corsair-X helmet features a Super Fiber and special synthetic fiber shell construction for excellent strength, reduced weight, and effective glancing-off performance.
The PB-SNC2 shell uses Arai’s in-house Z Resin to bond multiple shell layers and materials securely with less resin. An internal Structural Net and Peripheral Belt reinforce the shell while minimizing added weight and thickness. The shell design works with strategically mounted vents that are intended to remain frangible in an impact, helping reduce the risk of snagging on obstacles or creating excess rotational force. Together, these construction details support Arai’s focus on balanced protection and practical race-inspired performance.
The Corsair-X is equipped with an internal air channel system that draws hot, moist air away from the eye-port area through ducted channels behind the cheek pads and out through the side cowl vents. This promotes rider comfort and helps reduce fogging. The IC Duct5 system uses a three-position slide gate to improve sealing, helping limit noise and water intrusion. A Variable Axis System shield mechanism provides smooth operation through its dual-pivot design, while the larger latch is easy to use with heavy gloves. The shield latch helps secure the shield against unexpected opening, and the positive stop helps prevent unintentional movement even in the de-mist position. A dual-function lever releases the side cover and shield pin for quick shield removal. Part number 0101-17590 identifies this Arai Corsair-X Schwantz 30th Anniversary helmet.
