Video: Arai Tour-X5 helmet review
It's been a long wait, but the fifth incarnation of Arai's Tour-X range lives up to the hype
23 Dec 2023
First time of owning an Arai. Quality is next level in terms of paint finish, fixtures and liner. Stability at speed is better than my previous BMW GS Carbon, ventilation is more refined and it seems quieter. This design had £200 off list price and is still a current model, so also a bargain!
Since I have put it in my head it felt like a glove, easy fit, comfortable, with space to set-up the intercom without compromising any comfort, eye glasses fit in without any discomfort, simply perfect!! Only less positive is the wind noise is a bit higher than expected, everything else is just spot on!!
This is truly a great helmet. Fits perfectly, and the vision through the visor is totally unobstructed. so easy to fit my comms, as there is Velcro in all the right places.
Best of all the price through Sportsbikeshop was the best.
Great helmet, good price, comfortable.
