Arai introduces old classic designs for 2011...

[Hawaiirider]

here's my favorite classic come-back. pretty tempting.

The Freddie Spencer. Yeah, I bought one.

I got the # 5 ball-cap - one Arai a year is all I can afford !

But their new Helmet - the Rx Q - VERY nice !

 

[weasel]

I still like mine

 

[JakesKTM]

One of these and a Joey Dunlop replica and I would be a happy man.

+1

 

[shoelace]

If I could only afford it.

you know... looking at this makes me think that it's not even a real helmet. is this photoshopped? i've never seen an arai faceshield with a logo on it, and the whole thing looks digital.

it's a super bad ass design, though.

very limited helmet and i believe only can be bought from the Isle of Mann organizers or something like that...made for 2010, 2011, and 2012 as arai is a sponsor for the event...

yeah... and what's with this, "bertha" crap?

 

[TheRobSJ]

It'd be great if they made this one again...

Mine is still in great shape, but at 10+ years old, it's been retired.

retails about $900 but will probably be sold for around $1000-1200...

 

[GTXR390]

Arai makin' anymore corsair v jolly Roger?

 

[V4]

nope, but i'm sure you can find left over jolly roger around...

funny when it was available, it didn't sell well....good comments and praises but didn't sell...now that its discontinued, people are looking for em.....

 

[GTXR390]

Never seen it til recently...I like it, plain n simple. Currently got an rxq n C5 both in solid frost black

i always thought that was one of the best designs ever...simple and not too flashy but bold statement ...

i also wish it came back...

Yep, love mine too but getting old. Also you hardly ever see anyone else wearing this one.

 

[Submrnr]

I'm sorta liking this one lately.

Well the day-glo highlighter yellow was a bit flashy but I liked that for visibility. They also did a version on the Quantum with gold instead of the day-glo.

And I think Bell did a very similar design right around the same time. Not sure if Kosinski changed sponsors or if Bell was just biting Arai's design.

 

[V4]

i think kocinski originally started with Bell and then got picked up by Arai later years of his career...
