Great fitting helmet. You can feel the quality as soon as you put it on. The adjustable interior of this helmet is a great advantage. I have a average size round face and this helmet in a medium fits perfect with a little cheek pad adjustment. You definetly get what you pay for in this case.

This was my first top helmet. I always heard about the quality of Arai, and finally could buy one. This helmet is pretty comfortable and has a great paint job.
Ventilation works exceptionally and I can feel wind going through my hair. The only problem is that the shield fogs up easily. Revzilla have a great service and do a, excellent work.

Just wore this helmet for the first time today for about 200 miles and it was great! Air flow, very quiet and the fit was perfect. The pictures on the website cannot do justice to the beauty of this helmet. I've got the red talon and it's a great looking helmet. Thanks Revzilla!!! Your videos are fantastic, keep up the good work....

If you are used to buying cheap, you will be amazed at what a few hundred dollars more will get you. The quality disparity is unbelievable; Arai is by far the highest quality helmet out there. I have a round oval head and went one size up, it fit perfectly. Watch the video on youtube to learn to remove and install the face shield. Revzilla is my new go-to place for motorcycle gear, the service was great/the price was unbeatable.

Coming to the RX-Q from a RX7 corsair. The helmet is slightly different in shape, and the XL fit perfectly from day one vs my old XXL corsair that needed a few hours of wear to fit right. Impressed with the graphics and comfort. Very happy with the choice and revzilla

The picture you provide for pre-order of the Deco is different than the picture Arai has on their website. Yours looks to have a giant Arai logo in the back, theirs does not. Do you know what will be produced?

Answer: 
The helmet shown is actually an Arai Vector 2 with Deco graphic. The Arai logo on the rear of the helmet is much smaller on the RX-Q. When we receive updated pictures, we will change this on the website. Good catch!

Hi there,

How would you compare the RQ-Q to the Shoei Qwest? I am leaning towards the Qwest because I want the quietest helmet I can find! Also I am an XS size...and Arai doesn't make that shell specific size do they? My riding style is mostly sport-touring/ weekend trips on my ninja 400r.

Thanks!

Answers

Answer: 
I believe you mean the Arai RX-Q. I can't comment on the Shoei Quest but, I can tell you that Arai goes to great lenghts to fit their helmets very well and while not specific to XS, I wear a small and the XS shell is the same for the two sizes. So it is a small shell size with no "lolipop" styling. Just a word on noise since you mention about wanting a quiet helmet. No helmet will be super quiet unless perhaps the Shuberth C3 modular but, it comes with a big price. Noise levels will always be a compromise of a helmet that vents well and has sufficient padding and construction to minimize air entering the helmet (especially under the chin bar). While I may have not exactly answered your question, I hope I was able to help. Both helmets are quality products and good luck with your choice.

The RX-Q does indeed have space for helmet speakers. I have the Sena bluetooth SMH-10 communications in my old helmet that will transfer to my new RX-Q. I checked out the spacing on a friend's RX-Q before I bought my helmet.

Some of the pictures of the RX-Q helmets show them with the pin-lock shield and some do not. Does the RX-Q come with the pin-lock shield on it already, or is it separate?

Answer: 
The pinlock shield does not come with the helmet. You would need to order that seperately.

Answer: 
The RX-Q comes with a standard shield. To upgrade to the pinlock system, you would have to purchase both the Pinlock shield and the Pinlock lens.

The Signet-Q comes with a Max Vision Pinlock Shield and Lens.

Answer: 
The finish of the Arai RX-Q DNA helmet is gloss black. The finish is more akin to the Arai "diamond" finish you find on the RX-Q Solid helmet in Diamond Black.

Answer: 
I have a Arai RQ-Q helmet (and an older Shoei RX-700)... I also recently bought a pair of Sena SMH-10 Bluetooth Headsets and they fit great!

The clamp on the side easily will fit the Arai helmet and pretty much any other helmet you can think of. There is a slight 1-2mm gap at the top of the headset where the helmet starts to curve in but that doesn't affect wind resistance, noise, or anything else. Attaching the earbuds inside of the Arai helmet required the supplied sticky velcro pads that came with the Sena because the material the helmet is made from doesn't work that good with velcro. The Shoei material worked fine with velco and I could attach the headphones anywhere without a stickypad.

Answer: 
I have seen the Sena mounted both ways on the RX-Q without any issues. I don't think it matter too much, so whatever looks/feels better to you should be fine.

Hi, I am currently using a Scorpion EXO 1000 on my BMW K1200S. At higher speeds (and medium) I find it very noisy. I have been looking at AGV's GP-Tech, Arai's Q and also Schubert. I am wearing fitted earplugs but they start hurting after a few hours of riding. What would you recommend?
Thanks, Hans.

Answer: 
Hans,
If you ride a K1200S then you ride in a more tucked position, right? Like a sport bike style of riding? The RX-Q is a great helmet and is very quiet when the vents are not open, but there is something you should consider here...the RX-Q is designed for an upright riding position, aka touring position. The vent is located further back on the top of the helmet and won't be of much use to you in a tucked position. The Schubert is the same style...for touring. Look for helmets designed for your type of riding, where the vents are forward.

As for ear plugs. I stopped wearing the expensive fitted plugs for the same reason you site. Instead, I use a an ear plug made of natural fibers and bees wax (yes, bees wax) which easily molds to the shape of my ears, and I can wear them for 10 hours without any problem with discomfort at all.
