Visors

After riding with the tinted visor for a while and still squinting in bright sunshine I expected the dark smoke version to make bright days more comfortable. What I didn’t expect was just how much it would reduce eye strain and improve my confidence in bright sunshine.

The optical quality is exactly what you’d expect from Arai - super clear with no distortion. Looking through it feels completely natural, not like you’re peering through a cheap tinted screen. Even with the dark tint, colours remain true and everything stays sharp.

The biggest benefit is in really bright summer conditions. When the sun is low or reflecting off wet roads, it can be dazzling and even dangerous. This visor cuts through that glare brilliantly, allowing you to keep your eyes relaxed and focused on the road ahead instead of squinting or constantly adjusting your head position.

The Max Vision design also provides an excellent field of view. The quality is first class, the fit is perfect, and it seals exactly as an Arai visor should.

What I liked

* Exceptional optical clarity with no distortion.
* Dramatically reduces glare in bright sunshine.
* Makes riding far more comfortable on bright sunny days.
* Genuine Arai quality and perfect fit.
* Excellent field of vision.

What I disliked -

Honestly, very little. The only real downside is that it’s so good in bright conditions that it’s too dark for evening, night-time or poor weather riding - not a fault of the product; it’s the trade-off for superb sun protection.

If you regularly ride in bright sunshine and understand when this visor should and shouldn’t be used, it’s one of the best upgrades you can make to an Arai helmet. The reduction in glare isn’t just about comfort—it can genuinely improve your ability to see the road when the sun is bright.

Premium quality, flawless optics and outstanding performance. Highly recommended.

The product fully demonstrates Arai quality.

The photo chromatic visor perfectly adjusts to how bright or dark it is.

An easy swap out for the old one - the coating starts to degrade after a while but it’s an easy job and gives instant results.

Perfect visitor for those sunny days and looks very cool on camera

In conjunction with a new helmet purchase I added the extra visor, excellent quality for both would highly recommend.
Great customer service.
