Looking good

Brilliant helmet, great fit very comfortable, good noise reduction. My 2nd Arai find they fit me perfectly wouldn't go back to any other make. The style suits my bike so very happy.

An absolute must if you ride the Z900RS Cafe
07 July 2022 by Matt B
To be frank I bought this helmet for its looks. My ride is a Z900RS Cafe in green with white stripes. This helmet was intended to match this bike and for that reason I just had to have it. Having never had let alone worn a top teir lid, this is definitely the most comfortable and quality helmet I have ever worn. Yes it's expensive, yes it doesn't have an internal sun visor but boy is it worth it! It's quiet compared to my previous lids and the airflow is amazing good.
I installed the Sena 10U intercom to this helmet and it fits flawlessly.
SportsbikeShop were excellent, price matched the helmet without question and provided next day delivery after obtaining stock from Arai.

Arai Rapide = Arai Quality
02 June 2022 by Robin W
Having recently purchased a retro looking Spitfire I needed a change of helmet to go with it (as you do).
I've worn Arai helmets since I was 16 and they have got progressively better and better as time has progressed. Fits like a glove, is comfortable and very little wind noise. Quality and finish are first class and you have the Pinlock option if it's required. Top marks from me but you get what you pay for. Happy shopping

Excellent service and quick delivery as expected from SportsBikeShop. I have used them before, will continue to do so and recommend checking them out for best prices. Cannot fault helmet, looks great with the retro vibe, supreme Arai safety and quality finish. Fit is snug and comfortable. Great helmet, my 3rd Arai..

Arai rapids
27 January 2022 by James B
Very pleased with my latest purchase, as a Arai wearer this is my sixth helmet purchase and this doesn't disappoint.
Very comfortable to wear I initially thought it was a bit tight compared to my other one but once on it's very comfy.

Classic Arai
09 July 2021 by Alex S
58.5cms head, and the large fits perfect
great build quality.
light whistling noise, but earplugs sorts that.
Great visibility.
Wanted a helmet with a sun visor, but after a bad experience with an HJC helmet, I decided to concentrate on the helmet, and wear sunglasses, works perfect. (By the way, Sportsbikeshop sorted out my problem by giving me a full credit, cannae beat that!)
Would buy another Arai.

Great Retro Option
19 January 2021 by Jason B
First the bad - it's not very light and it's not the most innovative retro design. But it's superb in all other departments and looks fantastic on most bikes. It features in this top 10 cool helmets:

Well styled and comfortable

The quality of the helmet is top notch, very comfortable, with no external vents it should be quiet. Visor is a pain to swap out though.

Great helmet

Great helmet. Usual Aria high quality and perfect, comfortable fit. It may be more expensive but, having head butted a car while wearing an Aria, I can confirm that they are worth every penny.

Arai rapide
27 June 2020 by Nick H
I liked it because its simple and goes with retro motorcycles. I got xl and it fits my 60cm head perfectly. Really comfy to wear all day, venting is good and visibility also excellent. It's not noisy either. No integrated sun visor though you can buy a pro shade that clips over visor so might get that.

Faultless!

This helmet has actually 'wowed' me! It's so quiet that for the first time ever my comms only need to be on half volume! Great vents on the chin and forehead areas, and exhausts low at the back. Great visibility and a pinlock already set up. My next buy will be the ProtecTINT pinlock insert. The visor has a lock system so no air can get in (and for the first time ever my eyes don't water on a ride) and a little glove-friendly catch to release it. I'm wearing sunglasses with it, which actually I forgot I had on yesterday as the helmet is perfectly set up for glasses wearers. I'm trying to find any negatives with this helmet but seriously can't think of any! The shape is retro, the colours are cool, and the comfort is 10/10...I had it on for 8hrs around the Yorkshire Dales last week in the boiling weather then of course it chucked it down, still no complaints!
The cheek pads have an emergency removal system if ever needed.
Arrived the next day as usual, thanks so much SBS! Top marks to you. :-)
