Special ?? Arai helmet on Ebay ??
 

is this a "special" new type of Arai ???

from description:
"There are a few marks on it from storage but it has never been dropped. I can prove this because it is a top of the range arai helmet, they have a system in them, where if you are in a crash or the helmet takes impact through being dropped or whatever, then all the inside of the helmet goes white, Mine hasnt done that"

????????????????????????????????????????????????

Sounds like BS to me, never heard that 1 before.

That's the biggest load of b/s i've ever heard.I had an off wearing an Arai VX pro motocross/enduro helmet which ended up with a 3/4mm crack that you could only just see on the back of the helmet.They bought it off me to use as a demo for dealers to show them what to look for,and when it needs replacing.By white stuff does he mean polystyrene?

Top of the range "No Chance" Looks like a Viper GT or a Astro Race, & it`s last years model to boot, as it is not in the Arai catalogue or on the Phoenix distribution web site, but i could be wrong, if it is they retail for £399, only the RX7 Corsir costs £499, & that is this one

I think i got a bike show deal but the black Rx7R is still 350 , which is still a good deal

Well,its half true,the inner shell has a coating on,when a impact has been sustained,the black coating,does turn white,a bit like paint flaking off etc,but,all Arais have that,as far as i'm aware,i'll ask my mate,he works for them !

Simon, does that mean you are in a position to obtain massive discounts for us fellow Ducati owners, nice cheap small McCoy Corsa replica or Ducati edition Corsair. ??

unbelievable !!!!!!!!!!!
ebay removed it

so he just went & re-listed it ?
