Mc_spirited Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 I believe it is an Arai. It is probably a replica. It is probably near impossible to get. I figure I'll try. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moto-Brian Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 I believe it is an Arai. It is probably a replica. It is probably near impossible to get. I figure I'll try. Thanks.Arai doesn't show this helmet as available. At least here in the US. Might be a Japanese issued lid, but I think it is simply custom painted...

Mc_spirited Posted March 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 I diddn't think about it being from another country. I know it isn't available on their US site. I figure it could be a year or two old maybe. Im not thinking that its custom painted, as it has the Arai logo (it looks) on the front. If I was paying or painting a helmet, I wouldnt waste money or time on putting a brand name on a helmet that nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angrish Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Thats an old N. Haga helmet from a few years back.I think! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
playerpro153 Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 It's definately an arai. Only suomy makes that same visor lock design, but the vents are identical to the RX7. Very Arai. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're sponsored, but they run stock logos...Definately not a Haga replica... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrisoh Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 With it being a Japanese flag design I bet it is a Japan only model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very Arai.There wasn't any question as to if it were an Arai... He was asking if he could get that scheme by buying it... I believe it is custom and not a model available...It's just an RX-7RR painted... Haga never ran a basic Japanese flag design... Well, it was never a replica produced...

Mc_spirited Posted March 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Thanks for your expertise. I figured it was relatively unobtainable. I guess if I want something like that I will have to go custom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleCock Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 the design/emblem reminds me of AGV...but it's got arai sticker+1 for custom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moto-Brian Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Thanks for your expertise. I figured it was relatively unobtainable. I guess if I want something like that I will have to go custom.Honestly, there are a PILE of cooler helmets direct with graphics that look as sick or even sicker than any custom helmet...However, if you do something custom, send it to a reputable source and you'll be VERY happy with the quality. Who knows? Maybe they will have your design on a helmet someday!! How cool would that be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
