Arai Profile Sinister helmet

[jsheikh]

Just got this brand new. I know me saying its an amazing helmet doesn't carry much weight when I had a fulmer before but it's so damn exciting owning an arai... this helmet is a beast in high speeds, head doesn't feel any turbulence at all! And the helmet fits really snug and secure on my noggin even though its heavily advertised as for "long oval" heads. Mine's pretty average and it fits great. Another thing i love on top of its amazing fit and aerodynamics are the vents! I dunno if its my buzzed off hair now or what but i think the arai does awesome job distributing the vents within the helmet. One beef i have with the helmet is that its a little difficult to operate some of the vent openings, especially with gloves. For example the Profile has this wind shield defogging feature where u can crack the wind shield to defog if need be. The same latch functions as a lock for the windshield. It's a little tricky to operate but im sure after some time it shouldnt be too hard.

In conclusion:

Pros: super aerodynamic, great and plentiful vents, build/protection quality is off the charts (its an Arai lol)

Cons (nothing more than a set back at most): wind shield latch is hard getting used to.

P.S. - I bought it for under $300 brand new so thats another HUUUUGE pro
