The Arai Helmets XD-5 Helmet combines advanced shell construction, adaptable ventilation, and adventure-focused aerodynamics for riders who demand dependable protection and comfort on extended journeys. This Cosmic Yellow, size XL helmet features the Arai PB-cLc² shell, reinforced in the forehead area with a Super Fiber belt designed to strengthen the shell structure. The VAS-A shield system helps improve the helmet’s ability to glance off impacts while supporting quick, tool-free shield changes.
The XD-5 is equipped with a VAS-A Max-Vision Shield that preserves the wide field of view expected from the XD model family. Its optional Pinlock® insert is designed to resist fogging across the viewing area, including in demanding riding conditions. The adjustable peak improves sun blocking, high-speed airflow, and resistance to buffeting, while the AR Spoiler helps reduce turbulent air and rider fatigue during long adventure rides. The spoiler also assists with drawing warm air away from the crown area.
Ventilation is managed through multiple adjustable features. The front logo duct provides forehead airflow without compromising shell protection and is designed to remain effective across different riding positions. The mouth shutter increases fresh-air intake, while the inner shutter allows riders to direct airflow toward the mouth or shield. With both shutters open, airflow is directed toward the rider’s mouth; with the outer shutter open and inner shutter closed, airflow is directed toward the shield to help reduce fogging. The odor-resistant interior supports a fresher-feeling riding environment.
This Arai Helmets XD-5 is sized XL and finished in Cosmic Yellow for adventure, dual-sport, and touring applications. Manufacturer part number and vendor part number: 0140-0493.
