- Super smooth shell increases the helmet's ability to slide along the ground during a crash; fewer sharp points that could potentially dig in and create increased impact forces
- VAS dual-pivot shield system lowers the pivot point by 24mm making the critical temple area smoother and reducing the amount of impact energy getting into the helmet
- QVF three-position intake and QVR exhaust ducts provide excellent Air Inlet and exhaust performance when riding
- Side vents serve as exhaust vents when front shutter is closed
- This helmet is DOT approved and FMVSS 218 certified for legal on-road motorcycle use in the United States.
The name Arai has been synonymous with quality and protective technologies since the beginning of their days and the Quantum X Helmet continues to push the bounds, proving why Arai stands at the top. The Quantum series has been the go to helmet for riders with a more round headshape and this stays true with the Quantum X, thanks to its balanced length and slight additional width. With the simple installation of a Corsair X head liner, the Quantum X can even be converted to fit those with an intermediate oval headshape. Peripherally Belted - Super Complex Laminate Construction shell. Design combines multiple materials and techniques created internally by Arai that deliver both performance and affordability. Shell has superb tensile strength due to a variety of carefully-positioned materials and light weight resin. VAS (Variable Axis System) shield and side pods are exclusive to the Arai Corsair X Helmet. DOT Approved, Meets FMVSS 218 Standard. Variable axis (moving pivot point) allows shield mount position to be lower than most helmets. Dual function lever releases both the side pod and the face shield for quick and simple face shield removal. Captures and holds the face shield closed securely. Provides a de-mist position to slightly crack the shield open. Larger latch design allows for intuitive and seamless operation. VAS MAX Vision face shield.
