It can take up to five years for our experts to earn the right to create an Arai shell. Each shell can take up to 27 steps and to build one Arai helmet will take about 18 man-hours. The Helmet has a sleek outer shell which houses Arai s internal ventilation system. Cooling air feeds into the visor brow vents and is drawn through the comfort liner and out three upper crown exhaust holes, via a hidden multi-stage air channel within the EPS liner, by the negative pressure created by the combined Venturi effect of the side exhaust ports and neckroll vent. On the front, six meshed slots close to demist and open for airflow. There is also a FFS (Free Flow System) which reduces unpleasant wind from the bottom of the helmet to the mouth, and also forcibly evacuates moist exhalation from the helmetFor rider protection, each Arai helmet goes through five separate quality-control departments: after the shell is made, after painting and graphic completion, after assembly and two in-process inspections. All Arai helmets are penetration tested, although not required by European helmet standards. The Arai penetration test is performed with a 3kg test cone that strikes from a height of 3m on the helmet.Inside the Helmet there is a FCS adjustable interior which is both antibacterial and deodorising, and also fully removable and replaceable to keep it fresh and offering a great fit / feel. The Arai Rapide uses a Visor system with VAS-V post and will be available with VAS V MV visor and Pinlock insert. All Arai helmets are warranted against defects in materials and workmanship, and are serviceable only for the properly fitted first user for 5 years from date of first use, but no more than 7 years from date of manufacture.
