The Arai Story

[@chriswolf1277]

An arai saved my life on the 10th of April 2001 on my way to work I went airborne over the roof of a car and hit the road 40 feet away on my head and shoulder splitting my helmet from front to back I limped out of hospital the next day. My daughter was born on the 11th of December 2002 thank you arai 👍🏼

[@ShooterMedic1818]

Glad to hear you came out okay bro! Keep riding!

[@donbrashsux]

Wow...your very lucky..guess you wouldn’t use anything else

[@user-ym3po9gu4e]

Not actualy arai. That day just not ur death day

[@cascadian19]

God bless

[@AQS521]

Admiral Salehudin al-ayubi ohhhh okay! In that case no one wear helmets!!! Thanks for the money saving tip!!

[@quiklids]

I worked for Bell for 5 years. The company has been bought and sold many times since then with many changes in production and management. I trust and wear an Arai.

[@TypeSly]

When my friend and I first got our bike license, we went shopping for helmets. I saw all the beautiful looking HJC's for $300 (CAD) which I ended buying, and my friend chose to buy an Arai. He paid $1100 for a plain grey one, and I thought he was so stupid to buy that helmet just because of the name! He was kind of like that with everything. One day, I borrowed one of his bikes and I didn't have my helmet, so he lent me his Arai. OMG, that's when I understood! It was so much lighter, and more comfortable than my HJC, which would make my neck sore and the inner pads were hard like rocks. Not only that, but when I took it on the freeway, I couldn't believe there was zero helmet lift! My HJC would always felt like it was going to fly off my head, if it wasn't for the chin straps. The shield would also stay in place no matter where I positioned it! I could never crack the shield open at any speeds on my HJC without it flying open. The day after, I listed my HJC for sale, and ordered an Arai. Thank God, I made that decision. Because on my first get off, I hit the side of my head on the concrete so hard, that I bounced all the way back onto my feet. My side pod was smashed to pieces, and my visor was flapping around, but I walked away without even having a headache. Thank you Arai, and I am a customer for life. Nothing but Arai for me again, ever.

[@jasong728]

Funny as hell, but glad you are ok. Love my Corsairs.

[@cascadian19]

Glad you're okay!

[@kdbikerscollection5534]

Rileks je Aki Arai kena interview. Baju pon xpayah iron. Hahahaha. Im one of Arai big fan. Comfortable and well designed. Love from Malaysia!

[@bikezonly]

I've worn almost all the helmets in the market, one type or another and have since settled on Arai. Even if we put safety aside, no other helmet fits like an Arai, IMO.

[@giannislymperopoylos5574]

YOU ARE WRONG...THERE ARE MANY...AND PROBABLY MORE THAN 50% THAT FIND SHOEI FITS MUCH BETTER...AND ITS MUCH MORE COMFORTABLE...FOR LONG TRIPS!!!THAT DOES NOT MEAN THAT ARAI ARE NOT THE BEST HELMETS IN THE WORLD!!!

[@droptuned83]

@@giannislymperopoylos5574 he is not wrong as he said in his opinion, I have been wearing and riding for 46 years and have worn all the good brand and only Arai will do for me . Had shoei when they were still a premium made helmet and it misted badly and was uncomfortable in a short time. Gav are very poor build quality and expensive. Only Arai seem to have the quality and fit which I need. There style is great too , I don't like to look like a storm trooper or a video game refugee. Imo

[@TypeSly]

@@giannislymperopoylos5574 I have both Shoei and Arai, and IMO, my Arai fits me much better too. Maybe your Shoei is the best for you. Doesn't make either of us wrong.

[@elvisGT]

Had an Axces 2 and now awaiting for my new to come which is QV in drone black. I do understand, life is tough and people are choosing products by price, but we ride one life - so why not protect it ! I do believe Arai take every care of to protect us. I do like the fact, their shell never changes, as they have made a tons of of helmets and if something works in terms of safety - there is no need to add all the fancy stuff. Great fit, great comfort and what I have learnt - the best protector. Thanks.

[@desimc89]

I swear by my Arai and Shoei helmets. I only wish Arai made more solid colors other than white, black, and silver. A solid red, blue, yellow, orange, green, or purple would be nice - especially in hi visibility or fluorescent shades would be ideal. That line that they care not about sales number or shareholder interest really spoke to me. Love their focus on each shell and quality.

[@AraiHelmetEurope]

Dear Adam Wade, Thank you for your question. It is possible to get an Arai in a different solid color. Please check for availability of your preferred color with your national importer. These can be ordered in Japan for you. Kind regards, Arai Helmet (Europe) B.V.

[@aviationiceman9549]

The Joey Dunlop replica has to be the best helmet ever made !

[@clewxo0696]

Each shell, not just a sample is pass thru inspection an sign by the person. Wow

[@jimmyardie3382]

I can't decide between Arai and Shoei so i get both

[@CBRboy1717]

Same. I love my new RF-SR, but I'm also saving up to get a Regent-X.

[@cascadian19]

I just bought my first Arai helmet, I've always had other brands, but now I feel like I have the best safety and comfort. The Nicky Hayden graphic is the perfect final touch.

[@stephencallil6512]

Brought my first arai in 1981. I would not ever consider another make. Arai the are best.

[@lpete531]

Wow, awesome 👍 I never knew the company history nor a privately owned family business. I'm a fan of Aral and the build quality.

[@coletrick8748]

Best helmets on planet earth! ARAI!

[@asianguy1700]

Don’t forget Colin Edwards, he also wore a Arai helmet.

[@ianhigson719]

Gone back to Arai after having another Japanese branded helmet. And I have to say wow is under used in terms of comfort design quality and craftsmanship.......... Looks cool shit retro colour scheme too lol Thank you Arai my heads in safe hands.

[@brutusvk2]

Love my Arai and Shoei helmets. Now if Arai would get my helmet back in stock....

[@apesintanks162]

I shopped for helmets for about a year bought 3 helmets none of them fitted me well I spent hours everytime wearing almost every helmet they had in store, firs was ls2 it's okay but not good for long rides icon alliance gt was horrible AGV K3SV was okay but still fit was not good. Went to store again recently (sold my other helmets except ls2) I started trying on every high end helmet, shoei was not good fit I have a round oval head bot x14 rf1200 and couple others they did not fit good once I tried Arai Quantum-X it was like boom!!! Fitted me just fine I walked in store for like 30 minutes with helmet on I love it every time I put it on I just love it used to hate putting helmet on but with Arai I effing love it. Thank you Arai I hope you dont go public and let people screw your great company (like its happening with Tesla now) Thank you Arai

[@filamrider]

My very first motorcycle Lidz was a quantum f it's old worn out but since it's my first lid I still have it Lovin it, its in my shelves it's sentimental value. Never been a shoei fan always been an ARAI. Have 8 different brand but ARAI is on top my fav.

[@chrishom03]

anyone wearing an arai while watching this?

[@georgia658]

Wearing a shoei 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@larjkok1184]

I’m wearing one and riding while watching it.

[@georgia658]

Oggy Oggy LoL be careful!

[@asianguy1700]

i’m wearing a Arai - Vector 2 Colin Edwards (motogp rider) texas star helmet, it’s black and white.

[@asianguy1700]

and with a gold tint visor.

[@floppe5890]

Arai saved my life

[@zinix9529]

Yea bcuz its is saitama helm

[@davidshaw1136]

Cartwheeled my R1200gs in the Wyoming badlands. My head hit the ground but I got back up and rode another 200K. I did have fractures - rib and vertebra - but no head injuries. Just bought a Signet X to replace the damaged Signet Q. Worth every penny.

[@scidlynn]

Once you wear arai. You wouldn't want to wear anything else. The comfort is amazing.

[@dtntnw]

I bought a Vector-2 to replace another low cost helmet. I couldn’t believe what a difference in fit ,and performance. I noticed that it felt like wearing a glove. Secondly, i didn’t get the wind buffeting at highway speeds. Which ,i had gotten used too ,in the other helmet. There is a perceptible difference, in confidence, that i feel ,with the Arai helmet. 👍

[@johndavidson6165]

I had an Arai Signant Q that saved my life. And it was the most comfortable helmet I ever owned.

[@mikeMcoa]

Without a doubt I can honestly say that I will be a loyal customer of Arai and the funny part is I don't own nor have owned any of their helmets. Their was a time I would have skipped their helmets and look at something else like a ruroc or hjc because the shape of the helmet looks "plain" but from research its exactly what it needs to be providing the best durability and protection.Ive researched the whole day today and i've concluded that Arai is the way to go. I'm planning on buying the Quadrant as that stands to be the best helmet to fit me. Im not a rich man in fact if you told me to spend $400 + on a helmet i wouldve looked at you like you were nuts but you can bet ill save the money to buy one of these helmets. Countless testimonies videos and reviews all say the same thing. I've made up my mind im getting an Arai and am sticking to Arai. As my finances get better i'll buy the more attractive graphic helmets they have but for now i think ill just stick with black or grey. At the end of the day ill know that I have a helmet that will give me the best chance and more peace of mind making me a better more confident rider. Its evident that these people take their craft very seriously and so do I.

[@sticksey8566]

I am very proud to wear one of there helmets the Debut with Union Jack so comfortable stunning colours and finish the best protection

[@vali69]

The only problem with arai: the prices are a bit high for young beginners... but that dosent mean they arent one of the best

[@cal525]

It is worth what you are paying for.

[@TypeSly]

Like the old saying goes: "If you have a $100 head, then buy a $100 helmet". If your head is priceless, buy the best.

[@joshtalbot1086]

An arai quantum 2 saved my life. I hit a full size truck and hit my head on a tree flying through the air. No doubt I would be dead if I was wearing some cheap polycarbonate helmet.

[@warrier47]

thanx a lot for making very affordable high quality helmets for us. i've used both AGV and a arai. i personally think AGV is priced for it's brand name more than the quality.. and guys. thanx a lot n loadz because my head is saved 2 times because of "A" arai (not two). and one thing.. if you guys can open a dealership in Sri Lanka that will be very helpful..

[@preluderful]

warrier47 ur meant replace the helmet after one crash!!!

[@toddgirard391]

I bought a rx7 and paid 600 new my friends though I was crazy.......till let them try it on.......and told them to go around 100 and lift you head up......every one came back and said that it was the best helmet they tried. Best money ever spent. The best helmet made in my book.

[@olgalinda4908]

I am very satisfied with the comfort of the arai helmet

[@georgia658]

Arai helmets without face mask remind me of Mad Max..creepy..oh and 8 idiots disliked this video so far!

[@zinix9529]

[@slacker2586]

Love my Arai..Arigato!!

[@jtwu8931]

Always proud to wear my Arias which cost about 10% of the motorcycle

[@rogerbaldwin8498]

In my experience Arai are over priced helmets with very fragile hinge mechanisms that hold on the face shield. The small parts break, what happened to me: face shield half blows off as you go down the road. Parts are very hard to get and expensive. I ordered new parts and before I could get them on other parts broke. I gave it the smash test and it broke all apart, didn’t look all that strong and safe to me. Conclusion: over priced.

[@mikeMcoa]

bad batch majority of people i know swear by this brand

[@nunom1973]

I had the dream of owning an Arai RX7 since I first saw one, had three helmets until i could afford to buy my dream helmet, a gloss black Arai RX7 RR, don't ride without mine, never

[@albertsciascia245]

I wear a chaser X arai this brand is my preference and always will be as it saved my life in a crash where my head hit the road bounced up hit a back fender of a car and I ended up under the car I can't put into words the thanks I want to wish but know this is the helmet I wear to protect me everyday

[@TheBigdutchster]

I own two Arai helmets, they've tried to sell me other, cheaper brands, but I want the best.

Amazing company and etos. Love the helmets, but I just could't accept the huge hi-visibility logo on the forehead, defacing the helmet. There are already two others on the sides. If I pay for the helmet, I don't want to work as a billboard.

[@peejay1954]

Adding these dumb graphics decals adds a lot of extra cost material and labor. Whatever happened to simple white and other bright colors?

[@bikezonly]

What's "dumb" to you is beauty to others. But yes, Arai still produces plain colour schemes without graphics, so I could only deduce that you're basing your judgment on this one video.

[@peejay1954]

If gang inspired graffiti and extra cost is beauty to you, then seek professional help.

[@bikezonly]

If you want everyone to like only what you do, then you shouldn't be living among other people.

[@peejay1954]

Did I tell you that you must like what I like? Show me where I told you this. Can't find it, can you? I truly suggest you need some strong medication as now as you are delusional. If you think I should not be living with people, well, take a good look in the mirror. A nice psychiatric hospital would be a fine place to continue your rants.

[@bikezonly]

Look who's talking. All I said was there are people who do like graphics, including the racers whose graphics are reproduced as replicas. It was YOU who went off ranting that I should see help, when it was YOU who said that I liked gangsta graffiti. Now look read my comments again if there's ANYWHERE that I said I like that gangsta shit you said. But yeah, I understand, crazy people always call others crazy and you started it. As of now, I would love for someone to come down here and tell me that it was YOU who started calling me crazy. And I've to waste my time fighting with someone who I don't even know who's delusional and probably who knows, schizophrenic and whatever else kind of mental condition he's in.
