The Arai Corsair-X Helmet is designed for riders who demand advanced protection, refined aerodynamics, and dependable comfort on the street or track. This Black Frost full-face helmet features Arai’s PB-SNC² shell, constructed from super fiber and synthetic fibers to provide a strong, flexible structure with reduced weight. Its smooth shell profile and smaller, lower VAS pivot cover support improved glance-off performance by helping the helmet deflect objects during an impact. The Arai Helmets part number for this model is 0101-18184.
The VAS shield mechanism uses a variable-axis design with a moving pivot point to allow smooth shield operation despite the lower shield mount position. A dual-function lever releases both the side cover and shield pin for quick shield removal, while the visible mechanism simplifies shield changes. The VAS Max-V shield provides a wide field of view for varied riding conditions, and a clear Pinlock insert is included to help reduce fogging. The larger shield latch combines a de-mist function with a secure closure that helps prevent unexpected shield opening.
Ventilation and interior comfort are supported by the Diffuser Type 12 and IC Duct5 systems. The intake vents offer three positions to help improve sealing, reduce road noise, and limit water intrusion, while the IC Duct5 switch is designed for easier operation and controlled airflow. Inside, the fully removable odor-resistant liner helps maintain a neutral pH level close to the skin. The soft liner frame includes removable temple padding and a removable, replaceable crown pad, allowing riders to fine-tune the fit. With its advanced shell construction, smooth shield operation, adjustable ventilation, and adaptable interior, the Arai Corsair-X Helmet delivers a focused combination of protection and riding comfort.
