Signet-X Helmet - Flag UK - XL
The Arai Helmets Signet-X Helmet (Part Number 0101-18209) is engineered for riders with a narrow head shape and a pronounced forehead, offering a tailored fit and enhanced comfort. Its long oval shape results from an increased EPS liner front to back and a decreased side-to-side space, optimizing the helmet's fit for specific head geometries. The shell design incorporates Peripherally Belted - Super Complex Laminate Construction (PB-SCLC), which combines multiple materials and techniques to deliver a balance of durability, performance, and affordability. This construction enhances impact absorption while maintaining a lightweight profile, making it suitable for both casual riders and enthusiasts seeking reliable protection.
The VAS (Variable Axis System) shield mechanism is a key feature, providing an improved shape of the shell with a lower pivot point*averaging 24 mm*resulting in a smoother surface around the temple area. The VAS latch ensures the shield stays securely closed, preventing accidental openings during rides. The larger latch also supports intuitive, one-handed operation, and the system includes a VAS-Max Vision (MV) shield compatible with the VAS-MV Pinlock? lens, which is included as standard. This setup offers excellent fog resistance and a wide field of view, critical for safety and visibility.
Additional features include the QVF three-position intake and QVR exhaust ducts, providing optimal airflow to keep riders cool and comfortable. Even when the front shutter on the top duct is closed, a side vent functions as an exhaust, promoting continuous airflow. The helmet's water-repellent, removable ES chin cover enhances the helmet's egg-shaped profile while increasing mouth area exhaust, and the odor-resistant liner helps prevent bacterial buildup, maintaining freshness over time. The FCS? cheek pads are contoured with multiple foam densities supported by a foam *spring,* offering a snug fit while reducing wind noise. Overall, the Signet-X combines advanced safety features with rider-centric comfort and convenience, making it an excellent choice for serious motorcyclists.
