- The SA2005 Arai GP-5 helmet is constructed of Arai's exclusive Sclc (Super Complex Laminate
Construction) shell technology, which provides superior impact energy
management properties, utilizing proprietary cutting edge fiberglass
based materials and construction techniques, while maintaining low
weight without the use of trendy materials which may not be properly
suited for use in helmet applications.
- The interior remains very similar to the previous GP-4 series, with
the addition of approximately 5mm more room in the facial area and
slightly more forehead room. Arai's GP series' utilize a proprietary
flame-retardant interior material known as "Lastan".
- The chin bar area has been modified to incorporate 2 air intake
slots, which have been moved up just under the shield. The now solid
chin bar has some subtle details in the mold and has been extended
down slightly, giving the appearance of a much more robust piece.
- The Arai GP-5 helmet shield is slightly different in shape and size as compared
to the previous GP-4 design, with weight reduction in mind. The Arai
GP-5 helmet shield
mounting hardware is also different from the GP-4.
- Upper ventilation remains unchanged from the GP-4/mk3 model,
incorporating 3 intake scoops in front and two delta exhaust outlets
in the rear.
- The interior fit is typical Arai, benefiting from years of research
and refinement, resulting in a helmet that more closely matches the
shape of the human head. Such a close fit allows for the smallest
possible helmet to be worn, while still being comfortable. Often times
a poor fitting helmet results in the use of a helmet that is a full
size too large in an effort to avoid painful pressure points.
- Combined with incredible fit and comfort, Arai concentrates on
balance and center of gravity. All too often, people concentrate more
on the weight of a helmet instead of how that weight is distributed
over the entire helmet, how much of the weight is carried down low and
most importantly how that weight is transferred to your head.
- A properly fitted helmet will distribute the weight of the helmet
more evenly over and around your head, making the helmet seem lighter
than it actually is. Arai
Helmet Sizing Chart
- A helmet that is more evenly balanced and carries more of its weight
down low will also appear to be lighter and cause less fatigue.
- The Arai GP-5 helmet represents the result of Arai's pursuit of a comprehensive
package, providing comfort, function in an attractive package, masking
the hidden energy management system within. Because after all, the
thing to remember is that a helmet is worn to take the abuse in the
event of an impact and if necessary be destroyed in that process.
