RC CARBON
CARBON FIBER FROM ARAI’S FORMULA 1 RACING | Based on Arai’s F1 GP helmets’ GP-7SRC technology, the Corsair-X RC uses the same CF found on the newest generation of commercial airliners, combined with Arai’s own resin plus Zylon reinforcement.
THE NEW ARAI SPOILER DF-X2 Introducing the new Arai Spoiler DF-X2 for the Corsair-X. The Spoiler DF-X2 was designed and developed in the ultra-competitive environment of Motorcycle Road Racing and is designed to provide increased stability and aerodynamic efficiency for the rider. The new Arai Spoiler DF-X2 is not integral to the shell and is designed to crush or detach easily when subjected to forces beyond normal use. This allows the Corsair-X equipped with the Spoiler DF-X2 to provide maximum stability at speed without compromising the round, smooth and strong shell needed to manage impact energy and maximize the helmet’s glancing off ability. For those street riders who like the look of the DF-X2, you’ll be glad to hear that initial feedback from test riders on the street suggests improved stability in turbulent air (like when passing a truck) as well as reduced buffeting at the upper limits of legal street speeds. Your results may vary, but it’s good to know there are some benefits on the street beyond just looking fast.
ARAI’S PERIPHERALLY BELTED CARBON FIBER SHELL CONSTRUCTION | The extremely strong, flexible and light carbon fiber outer shell is reinforced with Arai’s exclusive Peripheral Belt (extending across the shell’s forehead area above the eye port).
SHIELD LATCH | The VAS latch captures and securely holds the shield closed to help resist unexpected opening. In addition to the de-mist function, the larger latch allows for intuitive and seamless shield operation, even with heavy gloves. Even in the de-mist position, the shield has a positive stop to resist unintentional opening, but with a slight pull on the lift tab to clear this stop the shield simply lifts with ease. IC DUCT5 | The center IC Duct5 takes in 11% more air and the Type-12 diffuser intakes each take in 19% more air than the previous designs. All use a three-position slide gate to improve sealing for reduced noise and water intrusion. All Arai vents are lightly mounted to remain frangible, so they easily come off in an impact so as not to snag on obstacles or cause excess rotational force.
