The ARAI HELMETS Contour-X Helmet in Snake White offers advanced aerodynamic features and innovative ventilation systems designed for touring riders seeking comfort and stability on the road. Its lightweight shell is constructed with Peripherally Belted Complex Laminate Construction (PB-cLc2), providing exceptional strength while maintaining a sleek profile. The shell’s organic shape not only enhances style but also optimizes airflow management to reduce buffeting during high-speed riding. The helmet’s design incorporates side ducts and extra super fiber belting to reinforce critical areas, ensuring durability without adding unnecessary weight.
The aerodynamic rear spoiler, inspired by the DF-X2 of the Corsair-X, is positioned forward for improved airflow and stability. It features a one-piece exhaust/spoiler with an integrated, three-position switch for open, midway, and closed settings, allowing riders to adjust airflow as needed. The spoiler’s design ensures it can break away upon impact, maintaining safety without compromising aerodynamic performance. The helmet’s ventilation system includes a sliding chin vent with a large intake volume and a replaceable filter, easily operated with gloves, providing effective cooling during warm weather.
The Contour-X also offers a Variable Axis System (VAS) that lowers the visor mounting position by approximately 24 mm across the temple areas, facilitating easier glances off energy and enhancing overall helmet aerodynamics. The shell flares 5 mm around the opening for easier donning and doffing, particularly beneficial for new users. An internal stitched opening allows for tidy wiring management when installing communication systems, ensuring a clean, streamlined appearance. The helmet’s outer shell features integrated side ducts for added airflow efficiency, and the design allows for easy connection of communication devices without compromising the helmet’s protective integrity. Overall, the ARAI HELMETS Contour-X combines style, safety, and functionality in a lightweight package suitable for long-distance touring and everyday riding.
