The Arai Regent-X Helmet combines intuitive shield operation, a refined shell design, and adaptable comfort for everyday street riding. Finished in Gun Metallic Frost and sized Small, this helmet features Arai’s Variable Axis System (VAS) shield mechanism, which supports a smoother, more natural shield change while helping preserve shell shape. The larger VAS latch makes opening and closing the shield straightforward, while its secure capture design helps keep the shield closed during use. The smaller, lower-profile VAS pivot cover also provides increased shell area above the cover for a clean, functional design. Part number 0101-17546 identifies this specific Arai Regent-X configuration.
The Regent-X uses a Peripherally Belted Complex Laminate Construction (PB-CLC) shell developed to balance strength and reduced weight. Its intermediate oval shape is designed to suit many head shapes commonly found in North American markets. A 5 mm flare around the helmet base helps simplify putting the helmet on and taking it off while maintaining a secure fit with the included FCS cheek pads. The smooth shell profile along the Snell test line in the temple area is designed to help the helmet glance off objects during an impact. A one-piece exhaust vent supports heat extraction and aerodynamic stability, while the top exhaust vent remains open to help reduce heat and moisture buildup near the eye port.
Comfort and fit can be tailored with the adjustable perimeter liner and cheek pads, allowing riders to fine-tune the helmet to their preferences. The soft-brushed liner is removable for convenient cleaning and provides a comfortable contact surface. FCS cheek pads use a contoured shape, multiple foam densities, and a supportive foam spring to cradle the face while helping reduce wind noise. Together, these features make the Arai Regent-X a practical choice for riders seeking a comfortable, adaptable helmet with thoughtful ventilation and shield operation.
