I traded up from a Nolan N104 to this Arai and haven't looked back. The helmet is much lighter, and there is less buffeting, even with the visor, than with the Nolan. The noise is a bit much, but solvable with ear plugs which I needed in the Nolan as well. The noise really doesn't bad until 50+MPH so ear plugs are not needed for slower rides. I was a little disappointed with the way the removable cheek pads are in the helmet making me place the speakers for my Scala Rider back behind my ears. Not a problem when listening to music, but when riding with others it makes them talk much more loudly so that I can hear -- even with my volume turned nearly all the way up.
Generally a really good helmet and I'm very happy with the purchase.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Love this helmet. Most comfortable helmet I have ever had. Air flow is very very good and I am very happy with it. I was worried about the expense, but after owning it a month I am convinced it is worth the money. I have no buyers remorse at all. If something happens to this one, I would buy it again immediately.
Will purchase from Revzilla again!

The Arai XD4 is an awesome helmet. Has many airflow vents for cooling that works great in the hot humid Florida weather. My size was a large and it fit my head very well especially after using the removable cheekpads. Dark visor came separately.

I expected a lot from this helmet when i chose it i was in the market for the perfect helmet. While i think the arai is a nice unit compared to the others out there it was the vanilla choice compared to the nolan n104 and the schuberth c3. It is comfortable and customizable has lots of opening and closing vents and their operation makes logical sense and seems to work for the most part. there was some glue stuck to bits of the liner that i had to peel away, pieces that were not supposed to be attached to each other. When i bought this helmet i used my revzilla bucks to buy a tinted shield for it and found it clumsy/slow to change but straight forward. In montana it gets cold at night and i find it fogs below 46 degrees pretty consistently. I find alot of buffeting when going above 55 mph but it is due to my stock windshield i think (f650gs). One other thing i don't like is it seems to be too pointy which distorts the vision toward the bottom of the shield which is otherwise quite clear. I like the visor to be able to block the sun if needed. all in all it seems to protect my head and did good in the rain. I may have to also buy the schuberth c3 helmet for the other riding i do to be completely happy. hope that helps, i guess there is no perfect helmet for all situations. this one is more dirt than commuter/touring, that said i have not tried the schuberth or other high end helmets, i just want to. thanks and good luck!

I chose this helmet for its fit and features, particularly the removable bill, and the visor which operates beneath the bill. Purchased to replace an earlier-vintage Arai road helmet, the fit is identical except for the cheek pads, which are much more prominent and in fact squish my face into a half-pucker. But familiarly, like the loving hands of a Polish grandmother. The additional contact surface does wonders for the stability of the helmet at speed and in those herky-jerky off-road situations. It sticks to your head the way you want it to. Very comfortable, very high quality materials and workmanship, extraordinarily well-designed features. Noticeably heavier in hand than my road helmet, though not an issue while riding. Peripheral visibility, especially downward and left-and-right while picking a line through tight trail conditions, is great. Operability is excellent, and the helmet is superb at highway speeds. No feedback on actual safety and protection, but I can say that it lends one a sense of immortality.
Yes, I recommend this product.

The XD-4 was purchased to replace a 5 year old XD-3. So, my comparison isn't with the most recent XD-3. The XD-4 is more aerodynamic. It has a different shape visor. There is much more venting. It almost seems cold compared to the XD-3, but I ride in 4 seasons. The vents do shut off, and there are visor vents in this model. I don't know about durability, but I have been using Arai helmets exclusively for almost 20 years. I wouldn't even consider another brand. They just fit better.

Just getting back into riding with a new KLR 650. I had an Arai helmet back in the 90s when I was riding street bikes and loved it so i thought I could not go wrong with another Arai helmet. Revzilla video reviews sealed the deal for me. I went ahead and ordered the XD4 as sizes and colors on remaining XD3s were starting to get limited. I carefully read and reread the sizing on the Arai site and measured per their instructions. My head size fell right between a medium and large. Seeing that the cheek pads were adjustable and not wanting a loose fit, I ordered medium. Big mistake. Helmet arrived. I tried it on. Too tight from top to bottom. I packed it back up. Took advantage of Revzilla's clear return policy and had the right size Large back in the mail within a week. With large I still had to take one layer off of the cheek pads (easily accomplished) for a snug but comfortable fit. Have about 250 miles logged with the helmet including some commutes in 30-40 degree weather. I have found it comfortable, lightweight and have noticed no wind buffeting as a result of the visor. I think I'll need some hot days to take full advantage of the airflow provided by the several vents. Overall I am happy with my purchase.
Yes, I recommend this product.
