I had Arai before, far from perfect helmet, now shoes hornet, is much better and purchased the nexx xwed3 today
They've shortened up the Arai, my mouth nearly touches the chin vent. The old XD4 was a better lid and is more comfortable out of the box.
The NEXX doesn't drop if you get the right size, feels much lighter once on, has the best drop down internal visor and the Carbon Nexx looks super. Is quieter than the Arai and cheaper. Quality internals make it more comfy.
Arai fanboi's will love em, but the XD5 doesn't stack up against the outgoing model. The Nexx X.WED3 all day long until Arai upgrade their game.
exactly aria should change completely visor and peak mount.
You mentioned the Nexx whistled due to the vents yet it was still considered the quietest of the two?! The new Touratech Aventuro Carbon is just a priced up Nexx, they are the same helmet. I've long been an Arai fanboy, I tried messing around Klim helmets for a few years and left disappointed due to bad customer service and crap durability. I find the Nexx/Touratech intriguing but I have a feeling that I'll just end up a disgruntled customer once again and left coming back to Arai in a few years. Thanks for the comparison. I'll be moving to an XD5 next year when my current XD4 ages out.
to me personally ARAI should be better designed, I am with shoe hornet now-way better than aria
I’m just 1 minute into the video but if I have to take a wild guess which helmet you picked, it’d be the one with the cardo on
Sorry mate, but after 2 mins everyone knows what's the preferred helmet.
me too, I purchased Nexx now with xcom pro. I had arai before and no..
Can't even get the Arai 5 to fit its so short in the chin , the 4 was perfect.
Sorry but I disagree with you about the weigh on the front of the Nexx, I don't fell any of that. I like the internal visor of my Nexx for me it's worth the more weight .
Good video. Cheers mate.
Arai doesn't have a sunvisor though. Option that I like a lot, so I'll get a Wed3 !
I have the Arai Corsair X . Love it except the little brow vents built into the visor keep breaking. The visor broke at the hinge pivot too. Bought a new visor with new brow vents and halfway through the season the new brow vents have broken. They would probably never break if you didn't use the vents.
Can you indicate which one of those helmets is better for a long oval head
Do you have an opinion about Scorpion ADF 9000?
Carbon… is Carbon… !!
