The top of the arai helmet feels weird, like something is pushing down from the top. Good or bad? i dunno. Maybe its more safer as it hugs my fat head more. Still think the KBC is more comfortable so i ordered some new pads :D your right brent the pads can be replaced :kuda: !


If you are having trouble finding a large size my helmets are a "larger fit"

For example I take a XL in a KBC but in my own range I take a L to make it a snug fit ( I also have a big round slavic head and face)

So anyone who really has problems with large sizes for example needs more like a XXXL my XXl should be able to assist them

The helmets have recently passed impact and penetration testing - currently now doing the rest of the certification ( minor stuff as the impact and penetration is most important to pass)

They are also (real) carbon fibre quad composite weigh in at 1.35 kg for an XL , have interchangeable cheek pads between all sizes and interchangeable visors between all sizes.

( this is pretty much a lightweight racing helmet)

Hopefully soon they will be on board with Micks Leather Fix at all track and race days he attends for people to be able to try them on for size and then place an order if they wish too

Cost is not finalised yet but will be sub $600 ( FULLY AS/NZ 1698-2006 Approved - so street usable as well )

Here is a few pics
