COMPLEX SIMPLICITY The new Vector-2 expands the original Vector’s combination of Arai’s philosophy

(designed for the real world instead of the lab world) with a simpler, more affordable,

less-is-more design concept.

Specifications & Prices subject to change without notice. Vector-2(G) Printed 11/10

The new ACR-2 rear exhaust

vent/wing combination has air

inlets, tuned in Arai’s wind

tunnel, to accelerate air over

three 10mm holes in the shell,

greatly improving ventilation

performance.

The refinements of the ACR -2

greatly increase the efficiency of

removing interior heat buildup.

A single large slider operates all

3 vents simultaneously.

The ACR-2 is now available as

an accessory part.

Larger side exhaust ports

increase airflow, but careful

attention has been paid to

keeping noise levels down.

speeds.

The front intake looks identical

to the previous Vector vent, but

upon closer inspection, the

difference becomes apparent as

the new ACF-2 front intake

vent incorporates a sliding door

that closes the oversized intake

opening completely.

At the same time the outer gate

closes the intake opening, an

inner plate slides over and

closes the hole in the shell.

The ACF-2 is now available as

an accessory part.

Wider eye port, providing an

additional 5mm at each side,

increasing peripheral vision for

greater situational awareness of

your surrounding environment.

What becomes immediately obvious is that, while still adhering to its less-is-

more design intent, the new Vector-2’s impressive array of features, benefits,

updates and upgrades delivers an Arai Helmet in which more costs less.

VECTOR-2®

Foundational feature of all Arai Helmets

Additional features of the new VECTOR-2®


Latest generation “SAI” shield is 5mm longer on both

sides, which in concert with the corresponding 5mm

wider eye-port of the helmet provides the rider with

an enhanced peripheral field of view, greatly

improving situational awareness of the surrounding

environment.

Multi-Density (up to 5 in some models) Single piece

EPS liner provides exceptional impact energy

management, while keeping the overall size and

weight of the helmet to a minimum.

Found in every Arai helmet is the basic and simple

organic shell shape.

A helmet is first and foremost an Energy Management

System! From ventilation to aerodynamics, shield

systems, radio, blue tooth and graphics; everything comes

secondary and none should ever interfere with the

helmets number one job of Impact Energy Management!

Arai looks to the incredibly strong shape of an egg for

inspiration, with the smooth uninterrupted spherical

shape transferring stress loads more evenly across its

entire surface.

The absence of exaggerated edges or protrusions in the

shell is not a lack of creativity, but a commitment to

maintaining the integrity of the shell with real world

impact performance in mind, the kind a rider might

encounter on the unpredictable streets where impacts are

anything but controlled or predictable.

Along with the new “SAI” shield, a new “SAI” base

plate design is used to further improve the shield

system.

Repositioned upper mount point allows for greater

flexibility, reducing stress during normal shield

operation.

Additional features of the new VECTOR-2®

Optional features


New fully removable liner, designed with a full

perimeter crown pad, with minimal frame support,

for increased comfort.

New cool grey color on Arai’s traditional brushed

nylon material maintains an incredibly soft feel.

Removable/replaceable cheek pads, with

removable and washable covers.

Both the liner and cheek pads are exclusive to the

Vector-2 model.

Hyper-Ridge around the bottom of the shell enhances

strength and allows for a larger bottom opening,

making it easier to put on and take off the helmet

without adding weight or increasing the shell size.

Available SAI MAX-VISION Anti-Fog shield,

and optional Anti-Fog Pin Lock lens’.

Full eye port “Cavity” accepts exclusive Pin-

Lock® lens insert to provide exceptional anti-

fogging performance across the entire field of

view!

Insert lenses available in five color/tint options.

Expanding on the benefits the 5mm peel away

cheek pad design, the Vector-2 is the first model to

incorporate 5mm peel away temple pads.

Adding to the benefits of multiple interior shapes,

this feature now takes micro-fitting within an

interior shape to a higher level, giving the wearer

advantages offered only by Arai.

The incredible feature of the 5mm peel away cheek

pad layer, first introduced on the RX-Q and now

available on the Corsair-V, is standard on the

Vector-2.

This feature gives the customer the option of a

thinner cheek pad set, for a custom micro-fit,

without having to purchase an optional set.

It is extremely important to note that the Comfort

Head Liner and the Cheek Pad sets are Exclusive to

the Vector-2 model and cannot be interchanged with

interior components from other models.

It is also important to note that the installation &

removal technique for the Vector & Vector-2 cheek

pads is opposite of all other Arai cheek pad types.

To remove the cheek pad, pull up and

slightly forward on the rear section below

the ear pocket, until the pad comes out of

its seat. Then slide the entire pad back

until the front tab clears the chin liner pad.

To reinstall the cheek pad, feed chin strap

through the hole, slide front tab of cheek

pad under the chin liner pad and then

press the rear section of the pad down until

properly seated.

Make sure chin strap is not twisted and is

fully extended through the pad.
