Arai Corsair V Helmet Ventilation:
DF-10 Diffuser (New Helmet Feature)
Enhanced air inlets to increase airflow efficiency even better than the original RX7 Corsair. It also adds a new second air-intake slot in the middle of the diffuser body to create a higher venturi effect and further increase the venting of stale air faster.
Larger upper vent toggles make operating the vents easier than before - even wearing thivk gloves. The center Top Vent has been re-sculpted to provide more air intake; and also has a larger easier-to-operate toggle.
Side-Vent Exhaust Ports (New Helmet Design)
Newly-designed vent cowls exhaust heat more efficiently. And because of the way they are now “sculpted" into the new rear-shell shape.
New Brow-Vent Channeling (Modified Helmet Design)
Arai’s faceshield Brow Vents send incoming air to the temple instead of to the face and ar area - Helping to keep the brain cooler.
The Corsair V is one of the more expensive
helmets on the market. But as we have said before – What price would you put on your brain? The
Arai Corsair V is available on the internet from around $800. We
purchased our Arai
Corsair V Pedrosa from Atlantic
Moto .
Arai Corsair V - Helmet Interior
Emergency Cheekpad Release System (New Helmet Feature)
Arai must have listened to everyone who asked if this safety feature (see on the VX-Pro3) would make its way to their street helmets. The Emergency-Release Cheek Pad System was developed to allow easy access to an injured rider. The helmet cheekpads slide out easily with the use of integrated pull-tabs, which makes removing the helmet much easier for paramedics etc.
Removable/Replaceable Vented Neckroll (New Helmet Feature)
Helping to keep your head cool, another ventilation outlet for the removal of interior air is created. The Corsair-V’s neckroll is both removable and replaceable, and adds an exhaust vent through its bottom in the EPS Helmet liner,
Latest-Generation Dry-Cool® Liner (New Helmet Design)
Arai’s Dry-Cool® liner has repositioned the rear mounting-snaps closer to the liner bottom for a more secure fit.
Arai Corsair V - Helmet Shell:
Peripheral Belting (New Helmet Feature)
Developed by Arai for its most-recent generation of Formula-1 helmets, this belt extends across the forehead area of the shell above the eye opening. It improves the Corsair-V’s structural integrity while keeping flexibility, low weight, and shell size. The Arai Corsair V keeps the most-advanced SNC (Structural Net Composite) shell construction.
Wider Helmet Visor Eyeport (New Helmet Feature)
The new Peripheral Belt has allowed Arai to introduce a new 10mm-wider eyeport opening (5mm at each side) on the new Corsair-V, icreasing the rider’s peripheral vision. This new helmet feature will be most beneficial to racers - showing Arai's true roots.
Series “I" Faceshield (New Helmet Feature)
A wider faceshield was required because of the wider eyeport. Called the Series "I" faceshield, it is exclusive to the Corsair-V. The new shield fits even more flush against the shell than the previous RX7 Corsair.
AirWing® (New Helmet Feature, Patented)
Arai’s exclusive, adjustable new AirWing® is designed to greatly reduce drag, turbulence and buffeting. It provides the rider with unprecedented aerodynamic performance options via five distinct, easily hand-adjustable “attack angles":
a.Full-tuck position, run the AirWing® in a lower positio - for race speeds
b.Run the AirWing® in one of the middle positions - for normal sportbike riding
c.Choose one of the upper angles, for upright riding
Arai’s Compact Organic Shell Shape (Retained feature)
The new Corsair-V’s shell shape is even more compact and aerodynamic than the Corsair’s.
