ARAI Concept-XE ECE 22.06 Helmet Review 

*I have an Arai Classic V. I bought it sight-unseen and it fits PERFECTLY. No uneven pressure to any part of my head.* It also has a venting system that is so effective the helmet has yet to smell like my head. It's worth the US$450 it cost me.

Was in your store earlier and fell in love instantly with this helmet… I’ll be back! Lol

Very nice helmet! Thx for the video 🤘

this was my top of the list until i tried opening the visor. it was difficult to open with bare fingers and i can't imagine doing it with gloves. perhaps ill give it another try. i trust arai's safety standards.

How is this helmet for colder weather? My Shoei RF-1200 vents a little too well in cooler weather.

How is the fit compared to an Arai XD-4? There would be no way for me to test fit this before ordering overseas.

Great video. THX. also great jacket but I couldn't find it on UR page

I love the Video and already rocking the Arai Concept XE. But could you let me know the amazing jacket 0:32 you can see here?

Love my Rapide! (which came from Urban Rider)

Have the X version, absolutely hate the visor mechanism. Now it's my first Arai but after a year, I cannot get used to it and it reaaally bugs me.

The only finicky thing I find about the helmet, and you touched on in briefly, is the opening mechanism for the visor. On the previous version, it could reeeeeally be tough to open the visor while wearing the helmet, until you get used to it, compared to other Aria helmets I've had in the past. (Tip: pull the visor tab a little out and way from helmet itself, and then push up to open, instead of just pushing the visor straight up.)

How Arai SZ-R Evo differ from Sz-r vas

Love the style, just wish it had a vent up top to give the head some fresh air.

Great on depth review... Question.. how loud is it on motorway? Thank you

Wish they sold this helmet in the US. Been looking at just purchasing internationally and getting it shipped.

Which shield you have on ? Looks very cool

What head shape does this fit on? Intermediate/Round Oval?

How is it with the wind noise ?

Hey guys does the visor from last gen compatible with this?

I have the Japanese version of this (the Rapide Neo). I had it fitted to my head, so it is definitely comfortable. It's loud as shit though. I have to wear earplugs, even at city speeds, because the VAS shield whistles if you ride with it fully open. Saw a similar comment on a Quantic review, so I guess it's not just a Rapide thing. It goes away if you put your hand on your head - must be an interaction with the R75 shape. You could probably put horns or a mohawk or whatever other kind of sticker on there to kill the noise, but I don't know that those sort of accessories are safe in a crash. I haven't had much time with it at highway speeds, but it's particularly loud there too, even with my -25dB plugs in. Makes me wonder if I should get a different helmet for bigger trips and just use this one in-town. I haven't gotten the hang of the visor latch, although I only close the visor if it's wet or cold outside, so maybe I need more practice. 🤷‍♂ For me, this replaced my AGV K3 SV. At first, I thought the fabric in the AGV was way more comfortable (silky vs scratchy). Surprised me that a $200 helmet would have a nicer interior than a premium one, but the Rapide grew on me over time and I'm happy with the comfort now.

The blue is quite nice, but that visor change mechanism is a deal breaker for me.

Shell size is a big thing for me. Disappointed its larger

1600g is really heavy, though.
