The new Chaser offers superb innovation and stunning designs at a fantastic mid price. Features abound as usual with an Arai, including LRS visor system, powerful chin vent with enlarged duct access and removable cheek pads etc, but it's Arai's new Air Conductor Ergo Duct venting system which really impresses. The large ducts, especially the massive exhaust rear duct are extremely efficient at moving air through the helmet and the larger buttons make operation with gloves much easier.
PENETRATION RESISTANT
The penetration test of falling the 3kg cone test striker through a height of 300cm is conducted, although it is not required by European helmet standards.
HYBRID MULTIPLE-DENSITY FOAM EPS LINER
Arai's unique technology of giving multiple different densities to the liner as a single component instead of assembling several different density liners to make the final part.
ERGONOMICALLY SHAPED SHELL
Enables a more enveloping fit toward the bottom opening allowing improved streamlining and a smarter appearance at the same time.
HYPER RIDGE
Reinforcement at the bottom of the outer shell for more strength, including the area around the rear exhaust vents.
CHIN VENT
Two position vent with integrated charcoal filter: half open directs the airflow down, full open for visor demist function.
FFS
Combining new cheek pad designm redesigned neck roll, and extended pull-down chin spoiler helps reduce wind noise and increase the exhaust of hot air.
BREATH GUARD
Removable breath guard helps reduce fogging by directing breath away from the visor.
REMOVABLE INTERIOR
Plush removable, washable interior with Dry-Cool liner material utilises micro water cells to improve moisture and heat transfer keeps the head dryer and cooler.
CHINSTRAP
Covers made of Dry-Cool fabric for more comfort and better fit.
AERODYNAMIC SHELL
Offers minimum frontal area for excellent aerodynamics, great for racing purposes.
BROW VENTILATION
More cooling air in the upper face area without the need to drill holes in the shell.
LRS
Lever Release System. Visor change in seconds without tools.
DEMIST LOCK
Ventilates the visor, yet keeps it locked. Especially practical for around town use under damp weather conditions.

Top class helmet, 25 Sep 2009
I had a chaser as my first helmet, unfortunately I crashed quite badly in January and had to bin it. I've had a series of other helmets in between but none have compared and i had to get another one! The feeling of quality & comfort of the helmet lining is second to none, the overall build quality is superb. The ventilation actually works unlike most other helmets I've worn. The whole pinlock system is probably one of the best inventions for motorcyclists over the past few years. Wind noise levels arent bad, up to around 80 miles an hour it's reasonably quiet with a low level rumble over about 70mph. However over that it does start to get noisey. Overall, top class lid & definitely worth the money over other cheaper models.
