The GP-6S is designed with the sport driver in mind (hence the "S" designation). It uses the same shell shape as the GP-6 (PED) and state-of-the-art GP-6RC, along with the same wider eye port for increased peripheral vision. The single intake/single exhaust vents provide excellent ventilation performance. Check the entire list of features and we think you?ll agree: The only thing missing from Arai?s GP-6S is the higher price tag.

Who is Arai?

Arai Helmet is a Japanese company that specializes in manufacturing helmets for motorcycles and other motorsport use. The company’s history can be traced back to the 1900s when Yuichiro Arai produced kepi-style caps. When the company was taken over by his son Hirotake Arai in 1930, he produced sun barrier caps for the military.

After the war, the company started making shirts and overalls and also made safety helmets for construction workers. As an avid motorcyclist himself, he, later on, decided to create helmets specifically designed for motorcycle use, and the rest is history. Today, Arai is one of the most recognized brands when it comes to helmets worldwide.

Continuous Development

Throughout the years, the company has continuously improved and developed its helmet design to make it safer for riders. Their product has been used by many racers since the 1970s and has helped in saving a lot of lives of many drivers from different racing disciplines.

High-Quality Product

All Arai helmets are hand-built with each having a fibre reinforced plastic shell incorporated with multiple reinforcing parts, creating a round base known as the “Bird’s nest”. Using their own patented moulding process, the shells are then assembled inside a concave metal mould. Their keen attention to detail has made their product one of the best helmets in the market.

Safety is their Priority
