The Arai Helmets Corsair-X Helmet is designed for riders who demand advanced protection, smooth shield operation, and a customizable fit. Finished in white and sized XL, this full-face helmet combines Arai’s PB-SNC² shell construction with carefully engineered aerodynamic features to help manage impact energy and improve stability. The smooth shell profile and smaller, lower VAS pivot cover support enhanced glance-off performance in the temple area, while the strong super fiber and synthetic fiber shell provides a balance of tensile strength, flexibility, and reduced weight. Part number 0101-18503 identifies this specific Corsair-X configuration.
The VAS shield mechanism uses a variable axis with a moving pivot point to allow smooth opening and closing despite the lower shield mount position. A dual-function lever releases the side cover and shield pin, simplifying shield removal and replacement. The visible mechanism helps make shield changes more straightforward, while the larger shield latch provides intuitive operation and incorporates a de-mist function. The VAS latch securely captures the shield when closed to help prevent unexpected opening. A VAS Max Vision shield is standard for improved visibility in changing riding conditions, and the included clear Pinlock® insert helps reduce shield fogging.
Ventilation and comfort are supported by the Diffuser Type 12 and IC Duct5 systems. The intake vents offer three positions and are engineered to improve sealing, helping reduce road noise and water intrusion. The IC Duct5 switch provides three-position control, opens easily, and helps limit water entry when fully closed. Inside, the fully removable odor-resistant comfort liner helps maintain a neutral pH level close to the skin. The soft frame material enhances comfort, while removable temple padding and a removable, replaceable crown pad allow riders to fine-tune the fit. With its advanced shell, practical ventilation, secure shield system, and adaptable interior, the Arai Corsair-X provides a refined helmet option for serious street and track riding.
