Arai RX-7V - RC Racing Carbon
The Arai RX-7 RC carbon fibre full face motorcycle helmet must be one of the most special helmets ever offered to the motorcycling community. Each outer shell consists of no less than eleven carefully applied layers. The technology of the new RX-7 RC is based on that of the GP-6 RC car racing helmet, which was specially developed for Formula 1 use. It consists of an extremely stiff and light carbon fibre outer shell, reinforced with the “Peripherally Belted” construction. The Arai engineers searched and found a superior carbon fibre quality. A mixture of aircraft quality premium carbon fibre with Arai’s own resin plus Zylon reinforcement, showed to be the perfect mixture for the RX-7 RC Arai outer shell. Truly one of the best motorcycle helmets in the world, and is available for special order across the UK.

Other Information
VAS (Variable Axis System)
In any helmet, regardless of brand, the amount of energy that can be absorbed is limited. Therefore, avoiding potential impact energy by glancing off should also be a key function of a helmet. So we have been pursuing a sleek shape that is more likely to glance off energy. Most shield mounting systems require indents with a high pivot point in the shell, even Arai, so as to open and close the shield. On the new 'VAS', the mounting position was lowered 24mm in pursuit of the ideal smoother shape that increases the ability of glancing off energy. As a result, this has made it possible for the shell to be completely smooth above the test line of the Snell standard.
Outer shell
Exclusive technology developed internally by Arai for the GP-6RC F-1 helmet utilizes carbon fibre found in the latest generation of commercial airlines, and is bonded with Arai´s proprietary resins and is reinforced with a band of incredibly super fibre belt specifically oriented to disperse energy loads laterally across the shell surface. In the forehead area, this band increases shell strength without adding thickness or weight, and allows the use of a thinner EPS liner which greatly enhances the upward field of view – especially appreciated in a full racing tuck!
Ventilation System
The new diffusers in the upper area (Type 12) are now stiffer and 20mm longer. These work together with the rear Air Wing to improve stability. Compared with the diffusers of the RX-7 GP, these are now 19% more efficient. The ventilation mechanism now offers the possibility of regulating it in 3 positions; open, ajar and closed, improving the seal, thus reducing the noise inside the helmet. The air inlet is on the central upper part and provides 11% more ventilation compared to the previous model and a new, larger open/close mechanism facilitates its operation. The internal ducts ensure a cool environment inside the helmet and the side and rear air outlets permit the removal of hot air from inside the helmet. The incorporation of a new chin guard avoids turbulence inside the helmet.
Interior
The inner padding is fully removable and washable. Made of new Eco Pure fabric, they afford optimum fell and antibacterial properties. The new interior allows for a custom fit thanks to the 'peel away' system and has a space specific for installing intercom speakers. It also has the emergency release system of the cheek pads, which allows removal of the helmet without harming the rider in the case of an accident.
Screen
The new Arai RX-7V has the new VAS visor with a completely new mechanism that facilitates installing/removal of the visor. There is also a new visor closure system that prevents it from accidently opening. Comes with Pinlock MaxVision anti-fog laminate as standard for clear vision in any weather condition.
Closure
The RX-7V closure system is of double buckle.
Pinlock
Pinlock Insert supplied with helmet. Standard Pinlock inner visor prevents misting and fogging of the visor very efficiently.
