http://www.araihelmetreviews.com Arai Profile ReviewArai is the only motorcycle helmet manufacturer that offers its helmets in different internal head shapes. Arai make a great helmet.The Arai Profile Helmet is a Long Oval head shape as opposed to the now discontinued Quantum II being a "round head" fit. The Arai profile caters to folks with long oval shaped heads who get pressure points on the forehead from intermediate oval helmets. For round heads out there the Arai RX-Q is quite a comfortable fit. Head shape is critical when it comes to proper helmet fitting.In Europe the Arai Profile helmet is known as the Arai Viper GT.The shell is Arai's Complex Laminate Construction which is a fiberglass composite that is strong and light, allowing the use of softer, less-dense liner fabrics for excellent comfort. The dual intake & dual exhaust ventilation system flows a ton of air when riding in a medium upright position, keeping your head cool and dry. The brow ventilation system flows cool air to the upper face area with vents at the upper faceshield, without compromising the strength or protective elements of the helmet. Arai has become known for the quality of these small details. The liner is antimicrobial and anti-bacterial, fully removable and washable as well as the cheekpads. The removable breath guard and chin curtain help to prevent fogging by deflecting breath away from the shield.The helmet has a narrower and taller internal height and narrow sides. It comes with replacement cheek pads in different sizes so the fit can be customised.The Arai Profile uses infinite adjustment system for raising and lowering the visor. It has a snap lock on the lower left hand side of the visor.It has a retractable chin guard that keeps cold air out and reduces noise.The helmet vents extremely well. There is a vent directly over the mouth that goes a long way towards preventing fogging. Arai integrates a brow vent into the top of the visor. Some riders report that they can feel the air moving though the helmet just walking around.It is a very well made, comfortable quiet helmet designed for riders with long oval head shapes. It provides superb ventilation, with nearly identical set of top vents, visor and liner to the Quantum II. It has a full width spoiler.It is a quiet helmet and it flows more air over the top of the rider's head than the Quantum II did. The Arai Profile is profoundly quiet when all vents are closed.The Profile shows Arai's usual attention to detail in the thick paint and high quality.The Profile is incredibly light weight and is nicely balanced and it doesn't seem noticeable when riding. The helmet uses a D-ring attachment and not an overly complex "quick release" latch.The helmets are all hand made in Japan and the attention to quality is unmistakable. The paint, engineering, finish and fit are all top notch. It is a relatively light helmet.Overall the Arai Profile is a terrific premium helmet for those riders with long oval heads. The workmanship, features, quality and performance are all up there.The Arai Profile is Snell M2010 compliant.Features:-long oval fitbrow vent faceshield ventilation systemoptically correct re-formed faceshieldsde mist lock faceshield helps clear foggingremovable breathguard, liner and cheek padsfibreglass shell is stronger and lighterfree flow system reduces wind turbulencemultiple foam interiors for comfortpull down chin spoilerIf you want a high quality helmet that is both comfortable and provides great protection, take a look at an Arai Profile -- you will not be sorry.To buy your Arai Profile helmet from a reputable retailer with over 100,000 motorcycle products offering you a price match guarantee, and the best free shipping deal anywhere plus quick and easy returns visit http://www.araihelmetreviews.com
