Arai 2016 Corsair-X Isle Of Man Helmet and Tinted Screen
In true Arai fashion, the Corsair-X Helmet has taken helmet technology and rider protection one step further
by engineering a helmet that not only guards against direct impacts, but is specifically designed to Minimize
the effect of "glancing off" impacts as well. Arai has created a stronger shell and smoother shape that is
more likely to redirect impact energy than absorb it (therefore decreasing the amount of force transferred to
the body). To increase this potential to glance off impact energy, the VAS (Variable Axis System) side pod, pivot
cover is smaller in size and its position on the shell is lower.The Arai Corsair X Motorcycle Helmet features a chin curtain that helps to block air intrusion from the
turbulent air underneath the helmet, as well as increases negative pressure to enhance the exhaust ventilation
performance. The interior lining includes Arai's signature 5mm peel away ear pocket padding and ear pocket
recess to accommodate communicator speakers.VAS Shield System:Normally the shield mounting position must remain relatively high, because a lower shield pivot
will not allow the shield to open or close. The VAS (Variable Axis System) has a variable axis (moving pivot point).
This allows shield opening and closing even with the 24mm lower shield mount position, compared to the Corsair V.VAS Shield Latch System:VAS shield latch system captures and holds the shield closed more securely to help
prevent unexpected opening. In addition to a de-mist position, the larger latch design allows for an intuitive and
seamless operation of the shield.PB SNC2 Shell:The Corsair X helmet shell is constructed from Super Fiber and other special synthetic fibers
developed for F-1 helmet visor panels, assembled and bonded by Arai experts. A specially-developed resin creates
stronger bonds between shell materials with less weight.Diffuser Type 12:The Corsair X Type 12 air diffusers are longer than the Corsair V and are straightened for
improved aerodynamics, working together with the AirWing to improve stability, and creating a 19% gain in
efficiency. The air intake vents are extremely adjustable and have three positions (closed, half open and fully open)
and create a tight seal to decrease wind noise and water intrusion.Eco Pure Liner:The fully removable interior liner system is made from Eco Pure material, which helps maintain
neutral acidity levels close to human skin and antibacterial consumption, as well as a softer liner material and
adjustable temple padding to allow for a customized fit.VAS V MV Shield:The VAS MAX Vision shield is standard to provide better visibility in all seasons and for all types
of riding and comes standard with a clear anti-fog Pinlock insert.Additional Features:
