The Arai Helmets Corsair-X MVK Oakley Helmet combines advanced protection, refined aerodynamics, and practical riding features for demanding street and track use. Part number 0101-17638 identifies this medium helmet, which is built around Arai’s PB-SNC² shell technology. Constructed from super fiber and synthetic fibers, the shell is designed to provide a strong, flexible structure while helping reduce unnecessary weight. A smooth shell profile and a smaller, lower VAS pivot cover support the helmet’s glance-off ability by helping it move smoothly over surfaces during an impact.
The VAS shield mechanism uses a variable-axis design with a moving pivot point. By combining the shield pin trajectory with the double-pivot slot paths, the system allows smooth shield operation despite the lower shield mount position. A dual-function lever releases both the side cover and shield pin, making shield removal quick and straightforward. The visible mechanism helps simplify shield changes, while the VAS latch securely captures the shield and helps prevent unexpected opening. Its larger design also supports intuitive operation and includes a de-mist function. The VAS Max-V BV shield provides a clear field of vision for changing seasons and varied riding conditions, and a clear Pinlock insert is included to help reduce fogging.
Ventilation and comfort are supported by the Diffuser Type 12 and IC Duct5 systems. The intake vents offer three positions and are designed to improve sealing while helping reduce road noise and water intrusion. The IC Duct5 switch is easier to operate, provides three positions, and helps limit water entry when closed. Inside, the fully removable odor-resistant liner helps maintain a neutral pH level close to the skin. Soft frame material improves comfort, while removable temple padding and a removable, replaceable crown pad allow riders to fine-tune the fit. With its Oakley-inspired MVK finish, the Arai Helmets Corsair-X delivers focused performance and adaptable comfort in a premium full-face design.
