Arai XC
Arai XC
Happy Friday, everyone. As our “Arai Week” comes to an end we are going to discuss one of the best open face helmets in the market. The Arai XC Series helmet provides the rider with some unique features not found on other open face helmets.
The Arai XC comes with extended coverage in the lower jaw-cheekpad area. Arai has extended this area, 1 3/16″, compared to the previous and traditional 3/4 open face helmets. The XC provides a measure of lower jaw protection that’s been missing from open face helmets which expose the lower part of the face.
Here are some great features of the Arai XC:
- Upper Vent System: Also available on the Corsair-V, improves the airflow and helmet stability. DF-11 diffusers have larger vent toggles for easier operation.
- Fixed Air-Wing: Reduces lifting while providing additional stability at highway speeds.
- Cheek Pad: New design is similiar to that of a full-face helmet. Full coverage EPS based and removable covers.
- Dry-Cool Liner: Fully removable liner.
- Vented Neck Roll: Vented neck roll takes advantage of existing airflow from around the rider’s neck to further enhance helmet ventilation by extracting more heat buildup from interior.
- Thinner Shield Arms: Pods provide a more aerodynamic shape. LRS levers assist with shield removal.
