Arai standing still or innovating?
In this video, I give my opinion on Arai. I've been using Arai Helmets for three decades, yes thirty years. There is no doubt that Arai are the No.1 motorcycle helmet manufacturer in the world, proven by the fact that the vast majority of professional racers and riders don their heads with their helmets. However, in recent times, there has been an influx of so called lesser known brands who are quickly making in roads on build quality and most importantly innovative features that Arai are it seems not responding to. I question whether or not the Arai range is now worth the cost compared to for example The LS2 range or others that are available as very decent alternatives. #arai #araihelmets #araireview

    If you want the highest level of protection, you need double D fasteners, non flip up and no drop down visor. Anything else is a compromise. I pay about £100 per year for an Arai adventure helmet, it’s not that expensive.

    I have the same exact setup on my T7. Just did it today. My only concern is that the camel adv bend is extremely close to my swing arm. When I step off the bike, the swing arm does barely kiss the camel bend pipe. I think it has something to do with the akro headers. Did you have a problem with this? I also noticed akro doesn’t use the stock exhaust mount under the bike behind the oil pan. Kind of weird for how much the headers cost

    Hey, I know this is an old video, but if I'm not mistaken, USB-C ports are somewhat waterproof. I mean, don't charge stuff under the water. But getting some rain on the OUTSIDE of the exposed metal on the base of the cable will not affect neither the cable or charger, as it's just a shield/barrier that doesn't transfer any data. So your cable, even without the foam/rubber/whatever they sent you is already waterproof. On the other hand, if it was connected to a modern phone, the device itself would prevent any charge to go through the cable if it detects any moisture or liquid in it's port. I don't know about the wireless charging but believe it wouldn't though.

    I did this when I bought my africa twin 8 years ago. The bike certainly was everything they said it'd be. But then I spent weeks locked away at remote work camp, researching and ordering all "the best" protection and performance parts and bolt on crap. Once I got home for time off I installed everything and the bike was a tank, and handled like one. I would turn away from exploring a lot of roads because I didn't want to wrestle the heavy bastard on anything more difficult than a logging road. I bought my T7 3 years ago and the only thing I've ever purchased for it was tires and a proper chain guide. Still the agile beast it was the day I bought it. I think the worst mistake someone can make is get on the internet and start reading all the forums and watching videos about how bad the engineers screwed this and that up and how you need to spend $10,000 on "fixes" just to make the bike rideable. The internet is so full of BS about motorcycles it's almost a god dam epidemic. There are several companies out there dedicated to find every little thing on a motorcycle that could possibly be misconstrued as something that needs improving, then they invent some part for you to buy and they get on the horn about how you will in fact be left stranded on the road to deadhorse some day if you don't buy this part! Just get on that bike and ride the piss out of it.
