Arai RX-Q Helmet Review at RevZilla.com

[enfermoXR6]

Hi, great review! I was wondering if you would recommend this helmet for long distance, adventure,dual sport riding more then the xd3? Thanks

[RevZillaTV]

@enfermoXR6 Totally man! This is the bomb sport touring helmet.

[curtmastor]

how do you think the RX-Q would work on something like the ninja 250r or triumph speed triple?

[RevZillaTV]

@curtmastor Great! It's an all around performer for sure. 

[DethGibson]

would this be a good helmet to use with my 848?

[RevZillaTV]

@DethGibson I'd say the Arai Vector 2 is a better match for sport riding on your 848. Its ventilation, aerodynamics, and quiet qualities are optimized for a sport riding position.

[smashy122]

Is the RX-Q rounder than the RF-1100?

[RevZillaTV]

@smashy122 Not particularly. They are both pretty similar in head-shape, however, the RX-Q looks and feels a bit smaller. That gives it the advantage in regards to aero-dynamics.

I was just curious i am going to be getting an FZ6 do you think this will work for the upright riding position?

[RevZillaTV]

@tufmandan Yes, the RX-Q helmet works quite well for the upright riding position whereas the Vector 2 suits a sportier posture.

[tufmandan]

@RevZillaTV Thanks for the quick response! :) Great video as well.

is this a helmet i could use on my r6 ? i do mostly just streetriding. not so much track. but thinking of trying some track days in summer, but mostly i do street rides and long rides.. is this a helmet that would fit me u think? its not that warm here in norway so ventilation or airflow isnt that important as long as it doesnt fog to much, but i like light weight and quiet and stability.. is this something u would prefer? =D

[RevZillaTV]

@m3g1 I think the Arai Vector 2 is probably the better option for street/sport riding on an R6.

[billysgeo]

Does this helmet have removable/washable interior (not just the cheeks)???

[RevZillaTV]

@billysgeo Yes, both the cheekpads and the liner are removable and washable.

Had my RX-Q (Urban Black) since June now and absolutely love it!!

[Deesboy08]

Nice review, good attention to details. Can't wait to get my RX-Q in June!

[RevZillaTV]

@Deesboy08 The RS-Q won't disappoint.

very nice review

[kasushi]

Which do you think is better, this one or the Shoei RF-1100?

[MrGubrz]

@kasushi whichever fits yer head better :)

the rf1100 has great venting and is pretty quiet

plus its nice n sleek with how they did the vents

it was nice n stable for me as well

its a bit more egg shaped if u look at the opening

the chin area tapers more than the rxq

the rxq is an intermediate oval, but feels much more roomier side to side than the rf1100

also, the rf1100 uses a lot of individual shell sizes

so if u get a small, but think mebbe you need more room, u cant put medium pads in it

[CaliJosh77]

i would go with the arai over the rf-1100.

[FAHAD6612]

@CaliJosh77 why???

[FAHAD6612]

@kasushi really i dont now what i am going to take!!!!

[FAHAD6612]

@kasushi RF-1100

[RevZillaTV]

For the record this helmet is Diamond Grey color.
