Arai Corsair-X Dani Samurai 2 Helmet

Description

Description

Perhaps the most fabled name in the entire Arai lineup, the Corsair has long been renowned as one of the most advanced, highest quality helmets available anywhere in the world. It represents the culmination of our vast experience in helmet design and unwavering focus on rider protection. And with features like the ingenious VAS shield mechanism, exceptional ventilation and an odor resistant interior lining, the Corsair-X has certainly earned its place as our flagship model.

Shell:

• PB-SNC2 Shell: A new resin (Z Resin) developed and blended in-house, bonds the many layers and materials of the shell more securely using less resin, improving shell strength as well as reducing weight. The proprietary Super Fiber and special synthetic reinforcing fibers allow Arai to produce a stronger, yet lighter shell with excellent Glancing Off properties. The addition of the internal Structural net and Peripheral Belt further strengthen the shell with minimal increase to weight or thickness.
• DF-X2 (Optional accessory not included): The new Arai Spoiler DF-X2 for the Corsair-X. The Spoiler DF-X2 was designed and developed in the ultra-competitive environment of MotoGP and is designed to provide increased stability and aerodynamic efficiency for the rider.
• ES Chin Curtain: This curtain accentuates the egg-shaped form of the shell and blocks turbulent air from entering the underside; works with pull-down spoiler.
• Pull Down Spoiler: Helps to minimize wind noise and turbulence, this movable piece under the chin also aids with the extraction of hot air from the rider’s face.
• Outward-Flaring Hyper-Ridge: Flares out to provide a larger opening for easier ingress and egress; the reinforcement band circles the bottom of the shell adding strength and lowering the helmet’s center of gravity.
• Intermediate Oval head shape

Ventilation:

• Internal Air Channel: Improved ventilation with an enhanced air extraction system, pulling hot/ moist air from the eye port area through ducted channels behind the cheek pads that exhaust out the side cowl vents. This helps keep the rider cool and helps to reduce fogging.
• Brow Vents: Gives you more cooling air in the temple and forehead area without holes in the critical forehead section of the shell or impact absorbing liner.
• Cowl Exhaust Vent: Exhausts heat more efficiently; these vents are sculpted into the rear shell shape for optimal aerodynamic characteristics.
• Diffuser Type 12: These newly developed air diffusing top vent covers are 20mm longer than the previous design to improve stability and airflow.
• Chin Vent Shutter: This closable gate in front of the center vent allows the rider to block out extreme weather conditions. Can be opened in warmer weather.
• 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.

Shield:

• VAS Shield Mechanism: The Variable Axis System (VAS) incorporates a moving pivot point allowing for a lower shield mount position. A dual-function lever releases the cover plate and shield pin for quick shield removal.
• VAS Shield Demist Latch: This innovative latch captures and securely holds the shield closed to help resist unexpected opening. The demist function allows the shield to be opened just a bit while still fastened and is larger to allow for intuitive and seamless shield operation.
• VAS Max Vision BV Shield: This shield features brow vents and a cavity to receive the Pinlock lens insert and provides better visibility for all types of riding.
• Pinlock Lens Insert: This clear fog mitigating lens insert is made of a special material by Pinlock to absorb moisture and enhance visibility in all conditions.
• Pro Shade System (Optional accessory not included): This shield system offers a convenient external shade to block ambient light, while functioning as an aerodynamic peak in the raised position.
• 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.

Interior:

• FCS® Cheek Pad Design: Arai’s patented Facial Contour System adds just the right amount of support by moving out of the way when putting the helmet on, but once the helmet is on, cradling the rider’s face and jaw area.
• 5mm Peel-Off Layer: This removable layer gives the rider a micro-fitting option to easily adjust the cheek pads to one size thinner cheek pad.
• Emergency Release Cheek Pads: These allow for easier access to an injured rider by sliding out via integrated pull tabs built into the cheek pad underside.
• Removable Neck Roll Pad: This removable pad allows easier cleaning and replaceability along the rider’s neck for sound insulation and comfort.
• Odor Resistant Interior Lining: Exclusive liner with odor resistant material stays fresher between cleanings.

Certifications/Warranty: 

• Meets or exceeds D.O.T. and Snell standards
• Arai 5-Year Warranty: All Arai helmets are warranted against defects in materials and workman ship and are serviceable only for the properly fitted first user for five years from date of first use, but no more than seven years from date of manufacture. It should be replaced within five years of first use.
