Arai Motorcycle Helmets

Arai helmets have earned a reputation that few brands can match. Family-run since 1926, Arai builds every helmet by hand in their own Japanese factory, and they do it with a single focus: safety. Their philosophy is simple - they make helmets to be protective, not to meet price points or pack in features.

All Arai helmets are made using a proprietary R75 shell design, which prioritises a smooth, round shape to help “glance off” impacts. This focus on reducing rotational force has made Arai a pioneer in safety innovation - well before most helmet manufacturers gave it a second thought.

Arai doesn’t go in for drop-down sun visors, flip fronts or integrated comms. These are trade-offs they’re not willing to make, because anything that compromises the integrity of the shell is a no-go. Instead, they use premium materials, build everything by hand, and inspect each helmet at five separate stages in production. Every Arai lid takes 18 hours to make.

We stock the complete Arai range - from the Quantic, their most road-focused touring helmet, to the retro-styled Concept-XE, and the adventure-ready Tour-X5, the first adventure helmet from a major brand to meet the new ECE 22-06 standard.

They’re not the quietest. They’re not the flashiest. But in terms of build quality and protection, Arai helmets are as good as it gets. Visit us in Guildford for a fitting, or order online with free next-day UK delivery and returns.

Verified customer reviews for Arai Motorcycle Helmets

Arai Quantic interior head liner

Triplesapper: Fast service

Ordered a 5mm Arai helmet liner formy Quantic as the one in my helmet was proving to be a bit too big and therfore tight across my head. Really fast service from Motolegends. Only grumble is the price - £74.99. Cant blame Motolegends though as the liner was only £5 cheaper at the Visor Shop, but delivery was a few days longer and I needed it quickly. Arai helmet liners arnt cheap.
