The Arai XD-5 Honda Africa Twin helmet is designed for adventure riders who demand dependable protection, airflow management, and long-distance comfort. Finished in blue and sized XS, this model combines Arai’s PB-cLc² shell construction with a reinforced forehead area that helps improve strength while maintaining a balanced riding profile. The lowered VAS-A shield system is engineered to enhance the helmet’s ability to glance off impacts, supporting Arai’s focus on protective performance. Manufacturer part number 0140-0501 and vendor part number 0140-0501 identify this genuine Arai Helmets product.
The XD-5 is equipped with a peak designed to improve ventilation, increase high-speed flow-through performance, provide a broader range of sun-blocking adjustment, and reduce buffeting. Its VAS-A shield system allows quick shield changes without tools, while the VAS-A Max-Vision shield preserves the wide field of view expected from an XD-series helmet. The optional Pinlock insert is designed to help resist fogging across the viewing area in demanding riding conditions.
Airflow can be adjusted through the mouth shutter and inner shutter system. With both shutters open, air 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 front logo duct enables forehead ventilation without compromising the shell’s protective design, and the AR spoiler helps reduce turbulent airflow fatigue while drawing hot air from the crown area. An odor-resistant interior adds comfort for daily commuting, touring, and extended adventure riding. This helmet is sized XS and styled specifically for Honda Africa Twin applications and riders seeking a versatile street and off-road helmet configuration.
