Arai XD-5 Africa Twin Helmet - Snell 2020 (XS)

Arai XD-5 Helmet

The Arai XD-5 Helmet stands as the pinnacle in the realm of ADV Touring. Focused on enhancing the glancing off capability of adventure helmets, Arai has meticulously designed a more durable, rounded and smoother shell to efficiently disperse impact energy. The front logo vents adeptly channel air, ensuring consistent internal airflow regardless of riding position. Chin vent ports encourage increased air passage, complemented by an inner shutter for adjustable airflow control. The fully washable removable head liner and cheek pads leave no room for excuses when it comes to unpleasant helmet odors. With built-in speaker pockets, the XD-5 simplifies the integration of Bluetooth devices. Additionally, it addresses wind intrusion with a pull down air flap, enhancing overall comfort during the ride.

PB-CLC2 Shell:

• Stronger, rounder and smoother shell compared to the previous generation
  • The smooth, round shell design allows the helmet to "glance off" impact energy, helping to prevent that energy from transferring to your head and body before the EPS foam is tasked with absorbing that energy
• Constructed with a uniformly strong vacuum formed Super Fiber, 30% stronger than traditional fiberglass
• Widened, more open interior / jaw area for added comfort and easier ingress

Shield:

• VAS-A face shield system allows for tool-less change and removal
• Designed to be easily removed for use with goggles
  • Most goggles can clear the shield in the raised position without removal
• Pinlock ready (Pinlock 120 Lens Included)

Peak:

• Redesigned to prevent wind buffeting at highway speeds
• Easily removeable (1 flat-head screw per side) for improved high-speed stability

• Top vent for improved top-of-the-head cooling in hotter climates or conditions
• Chin vent with large intake ports, double the size of the XD-4 chin vents
• • Inner chin vent shutter for additional tunability of the chin vent's airflow and direction
• Rear AR Spoiler draws hot air out of helmet, while reducing turbulence at high speeds
• Chin, forehead, top and rear spoiler vents are adjustable to your preference or riding style
