Arai Corsair-X Hayden Laguna Street Motorcycle Helmet

The Corsair-X Helmet by Arai is a prime example of the brand's commitment to advancing helmet technology and enhancing rider protection. This helmet not only offers protection against direct impacts, but is also specifically designed to reduce the forces of "glancing off" impacts. Arai has achieved this by creating a stronger shell and a smoother shape that is more likely to redirect impact energy rather than absorb it, thus minimizing the amount of force transferred to the body.

The VAS (Variable Axis System) side pod pivot cover is smaller in size and positioned lower on the shell to further enhance the helmet's ability to glance off impact energy. Constructed from Super Fiber and special synthetic fibers developed for F-1 helmet visor panels, the Corsair-X is assembled and bonded by Arai experts using a specially-developed resin that creates stronger bonds between the shell materials with less weight. This unique construction gives the shell superb tensile strength, thanks to a variety of carefully-positioned materials and the lightweight resin.

In terms of safety standards, the Arai Corsair-X Helmet is DOT Approved and meets FMVSS 218 Standards. It also features exclusive VAS (Variable Axis System) shield and side pods, with a variable axis (moving pivot point) that allows the shield mount position to be lower than most helmets. The dual function lever releases both the side pod and the face shield for quick and simple face shield removal, and the larger latch design allows for intuitive and seamless operation.

The VAS MAX Vision shield, standard on the Corsair-X, provides better visibility in all seasons and for all types of riding, and comes with a clear anti-fog Pinlock insert. This is made possible by the unique VAS design, which allows shield opening and closing even with the lower shield position. Altogether, the Arai Corsair-X Helmet sets a new standard for helmet technology and rider protection.
