The Arai Helmets Corsair-X Helmet combines advanced shell construction, refined shield operation, and adaptable ventilation for demanding street and track riders. Its PB-SNC² shell is made from super fiber and synthetic fibers to provide a strong, flexible structure while helping reduce overall weight. A smooth shell profile and smaller, lower VAS pivot cover support the helmet’s glance-off ability by helping reduce snagging during an impact. The Corsair-X is finished in Black Frost and sized Small for a secure, performance-focused fit.
The VAS shield mechanism uses a variable axis with a moving pivot point to allow smooth shield movement despite the lower shield mount position. A dual-function lever releases both the side cover and shield pin, simplifying shield removal and replacement. The mechanism remains visible to make shield changes easier, while the larger shield latch supports intuitive operation and includes a de-mist function. The VAS latch securely captures the shield to help prevent unexpected opening. A VAS Max-V (BV) Shield is included for broad visibility in changing riding conditions, along with a clear Pinlock® insert to help resist fogging.
Ventilation is managed through the Diffuser Type 12 and IC Duct5 systems. The air intake vents offer three positions and are designed to improve sealing, helping reduce road noise and water intrusion. The IC Duct5 provides airflow through an easy-to-operate three-position switch that also helps limit water entry when closed. Inside, the fully removable odor-resistant comfort liner helps maintain a neutral pH level near the skin. Its soft frame material improves comfort, while removable temple padding and a removable, replaceable crown pad allow riders to fine-tune the fit. The Arai Helmets Corsair-X Helmet, part number 0101-18182, delivers premium materials and functional details for riders seeking dependable protection and comfortable, controlled performance.
