1978. A young 17-year old rookie named Frederick Burdette Spencer, nowadays better known as ‘’Fast Freddie’’ wins the U.S. National Road Racing Championship. 40 years and 3 GP world titles later he is still wearing the same helmet brand. In 1983, Spencer won his first 500cc World Championship at the age of 21, becoming the youngest racer ever to win the title. His epic battles with Kenny Roberts and Barry Sheene will be remembered as the absolute highlights of Grand Prix Racing. Freddie achieved all of this wearing an Arai helmet with his now iconic red, white and blue design. To celebrate the close partnership between Freddie Spencer and Arai, we introduce a 40th anniversary version of the Spencer design in two colour schemes.
The RX-7V Spencer 40th Red is the modern version of the classic Spencer design. New are the gold and black striping and the new, yet familiar, lines of the design. A special decal featuring the Stars and Stripes flag and the ‘’Freddie Spencer 1978-2018 Anniversary’’ text can be found at the chin piece. Learn More

The RX-7V Race FIM's new design employs an FIM approved aero-kit to smooth the passage of air between the rear of the helmet and the aero hump on a rider’s leathers, in a tucked-in racing crouch. The fixed airwing makes it more aerodynamically efficient than previous RX-7Vs. The higher the speed, the more noticeable its effect. Learn More

Arai’s RX-7 has always been the benchmark in motorcycle racing R&D at the very highest level. Handmade in Japan by a three-generation family company of riders, it is Arai’s state of-the-art helmet in terms of protection, ventilation, comfort and fit. The new RX-7V EVO, apart from accumulated improvements under the skin, looks identical. Because it is.The difference? Everything. And most recently ECE R22-06 approval. Arai is always trying to accumulate small improvements one-by-one decade after decade as well as meeting standards. In addition to ECE R22-06, every Arai has to meet the company’s own in-house criteria. This is a really important point to note for any rider or racer interested in ultimate protection which comes from Arai’s dedication to protecting fellow riders. Learn More

The RX-7V represents the summit of Arai's knowledge, experience and know-how in helmet technology. This full face, top of the range motorcycle helmet exceeds all expectations in modern motorcycle helmets. With a completely new PB-SNC' outer shell, the revolutionary VAS (Variable Axis System) visor system and a significant increased smoother area around the temples, the RX-7V offers the new benchmark in the premium helmet segment. From the also new Eco Pure liner with an even slimmer frame, to the new ducts, improved diffuser and the integrated Air Channels, every part shows the attention to detail that is so typical for Arai. Arai has continually improved the "glancing off" performance by learning from real scenarios. Thanks to the new stronger and smoother shell and VAS, the RX-7V is closer to the ideal helmet shape than ever.

Again, it’s easy to use, flows more air and has a replaceable filter - New Rear exhaust/spoiler - The one-piece rear exhaust/spoiler, operated by a 3-way switch, is inspired by the Diffuser Extention-2 of the RX-7V RACE FIM and is fed by 3 holes in the shell. Manufactured as thin and light as possible it is designed to crush or break away upon impact – therefore having no impact on protective performance – while improving ventilation efficiency and high-speed stability - New dedicated shell area to accommodate communication devices - On each side of the outer shell there is a flat area to make it more easy to accommodate communication devicesECE R22-06 approved Learn More
