Excellent visor
07 Mar 2026 by Jonathan
This product has two visors, the sun visor sits outside of the helmet in front of the clear visor. The clear visor locks tight in to the helmet and the sun visor covers all but the bottom 20% of the clear screen when it is fully lowered so that you can always read the instruments of the bike. The great advantage of the dual visor system is that you can raise or lower the sun visor according to the conditions. I couldn’t say if this dual visor is noisier than a single visor system but at motorway speeds I couldn’t detect a difference in noise when the sun visor was either raised or lowered, and no, I am not (completely) deaf. And the visor seemed sturdy when in use and well made.
First class service from the SBS as always.

Excellent piece of kit
26 Jan 2026 by Neil R
The flip-up/drop-down shade visor works a treat. Great design and robust build. A little tricky to fix but slotted securely in place and only took me 5 minutes . Note that the kit does not come supplied with a Pinlock but my existing one fitted fine. SBS offer to fix it for you so you might want to order it as a ‘try on in store’ option for convenience. The shade visor has allowed me to use my Aria Quantic in bright sunshine conditions with confidence. I have not experienced any discernible wind blast at national speeds which was a concern in considering a purchase. Highly recommended.

Great Visor

Official Arai add on which replaces the main visor adding the sun visor as a second layer, which can be utilise in part or in full as required. Expertly fitted by Aaron in the store. Couldn’t be happier.

How to avoid Police attention
10 Jan 2026 by James
I know a lot of people will say just buy a Helmet with an internal visor but Arai's fit me perfectly so I don't want another brand.
I like these visors, I worl 12 hour night shifts from 7pm to 7am so in winter I can go to work in the dark and go home heading east in the dawn light sunrise. This visor means I don't have to carry two visors.
I also spend a lot of weekends riding out in Wales and we all know what the Police are like out there, anything to fine you and this visor is one less reason for a tug.
I thought the view would be distorted through two visors but as it's an Arai product its perfectly fine, even rain between to two visors doesn't cause a problem.

Great for winter when I am riding my smaller bikes
07 Dec 2025 by Monkey
Would not ride a sports bike at any speed with this fitted but fitting one for winter when I can only ride my smaller bikes it is perfect - no need to worry about two visors or getting home before it gets dark...at lunchtime!!

Intermediate visor
21 Nov 2025 by James
Excellent Arai quality and solution to the drop down visor. Tried it recently in mixed overcast/low sun conditions and it was brilliant. Takes a bit of muscle memory practice to get the hang of it. I like the in between position for low sun, very useful. I now have all conditions covered.
Usual brilliant Sportsbikeshop service: the best online shopping experience by a country mile!

Great product useful for all seasons
15 Sep 2025 by Jack
Great addition to the helmet allowing for a sun visor, it's easy to use even with a glove on and I think it looks good both down as a sun visor and up as a small peak.

Quality product.

Does what it says on the tin. Brow vents are the same as on the crash helmet i.e. fiddly, but if you have a Quantic you know that already.

Perfect easy fit to Arai Quantic

It fits Hemmet perfectly and is a high-quality product. It effectively blocks sunlight and provides significant eye relief. I highly recommend it.

Finishes my Quantic nicely
15 Jun 2025 by Sp33d3
For my noggin shape, Arai rule supreme but the lack of internal sun visor is a pain. I an too lazy to carry a visor change. This just works.. you can see your clocks, you can ride with it up/down or half up so it works like an adv peak. nice. Its easier to operate than a normal slider internal visor too once you get the 'lift and swing' into muscle memory.
Theres only one downside, you can't ride visor up/shade down but as most Arais flow air well its not as big an issue as you would think.

Clear view ahead
31 May 2025 by Tony
Bought this visor after riding with the sun in my eyes one day thought I need a dark visor so done a bit of searching, found this one initially I thought it just clipped onto my original visor, but no it actually comes with the clear visor, really nicely made exactly what you would expect from Arai.

Perfect for low sun conditions
21 Apr 2025 by Neil H
This visor system is one of those odd things, it does one job brilliantly and that is all you need to know really. Yes it can cause buffeting and catch air on some bikes/screen setups, yes its twice as difficult to clean etc. However, at some times of year and sometimes off day, having a dark shade you can set just on the horizon whilst leaving the road and surroundings unshaded is a massive safety help.

Description

Manufacturer
Arai VAS-V Type Pro Shade Visor System - Road Legal
- Genuine Arai part
- Removable pro shade for easy cleaning
- No contact with visor means no scratching
- Fits all Arai VAS-V type full face helmets
This is a genuine Arai Pro Shield visor to fit the following helmets:
RX-7V
QV-Pro
Chaser-X
Profile V
Quantic
Concept XE
With the new Pro Shade System, Arai now introduces a (patented) revolutionary solution to a well known problem: sun glare! It is nowadays quite common to use a retractable sun-visor that is situated between the helmet's outer and inner shell to protect against sun glare. However, it's Arai's opinion that this construction could affect the performance of a helmet during impact. As the Pro Shade System is completely mounted on the outside of the helmet, it will not in any way negatively affect the performance of the helmet. It also confirms to Arai's R75 Shape concept.
The Pro Shade System is a small peak that is locked in position. Unlocking is easy; just pull the shade peak forward. Than it can be flipped down with a flick of the hand, to perform as an effective sun-visor. The Pro Shade System is the complete all weather system for serious touring riders, offering protection against: sun glare, fogging and misting. Especially for riders that prefer an upright seating position and/or the comfort of a fairing, the Arai Pro Shade System will enhance the rider's comfort significantly.
