Great review. I have an Arai Tour X4 and am happy with it. Also liked the Shoei but it did not feel as comfortable for my head. Agree with you on the Klim -- build quality is bad, and they're asking top money for a made in China helmet. With Shoei and Arai you're getting super-high made in Japan quality and difference in look and feel compared to the Klim is very noticable.
Great review Thanks for sharing. I also have the same 3 helmets but I’m wearing size L and I have Asian round head shape. The Shoei helmet narrow opening issue will be solved after break in. Comfort : Shoei > Arai > Klim Ventilation : Arai > Shoei > Klim Noise : Shoei > Arai > Klim Aerodynamic on highway : Shoei > Klim > Arai Quality : Arai > Shoei >>>> Klim (cheaply made, day and night difference from Shoei and Arai) Weight (All size L) : Shoei (1580g), Klim (1540g), Arai (1650g) (I was surprised that the klim helmet is not lighter at all due to its limited shell size, size L using the same shell size as XXXL that’s why the weight is so much more than the size M (there is only two shell size for KLIM : S to M and L to XXL))
Hi, do you have Arai XD and Shoei Hornet ? Honestly I still confused to choose between Arai vs Shoei and considering Airoh Commander also. May you explain more about Arai vs Shoei ? I'm from Indonesia. Thank you
@@chandrajuliar Yes i have both at the moment. It depends on your riding style. If you always ride off-road then get the Arai because it has way better ventilation but noisier and less aerodynamic on high speed road cruising. Get Shoei if you ride on the road most of the time, it is quieter and more aerodynamic (less drag). Arai = 50 : 50 helmet, Shoei = 40: 60 (offroad:road) My heads feel more comfy in shoei. Shoei is lighter too.
@@chandrajuliar I’m wearing size L. Warning: Online store from Europe, America, Australia only sell European and USA oval fit. Most of the Asians cannot fit in oval fit, we need Asian fit
@@sukhoi3747 shoei and arai same size L ? Arai more pressing your head than Shoei ? Where you bought, in Sgp ? I have contacted you dm Instagram .. need your advice 😅 thank you
I’m an XL so it’s almost like reviewing different products, but the Arai Tour X4 is the most comfortable helmet I’ve worn just from the initial fit. Even though it’s quite heavy I almost forgot I was wearing it after not long at all.
Excellent review of these helmets. I have a Schuberth but it deforms the top of my head when I take it off. Like you mentioned about the Shoei, the Schuberth is very hard to Donn (put the helmet on) because the opening is kinda small and the helmet material is very hard, so I can't force it open over my ears easily. Otherwise the Schuberth is a great helmet, just not for me. I've had Shoei's in the past and really liked them. I might have to give the Hornet X2 a shot even though the Arai really catches my attention with the ability to crack the visor open. Decisions! lol
Great review! I am ready to buy a new DS helmet and this was just what I needed. If the Arai fits my head, that’s the way I will go, since you said the distortion isn’t an issue on the larger sizes. I want super quiet and light weight, which of course conflict. I have the first gen Klim and I love the weight, but it’s noisy. Are you on advrider by any chance?
I own a Tourtech ADV , Airoh ADV & a Nishua Enduro Carbon Helmets ( same as the Klim Crios - but 500.00 AUS dollars cheaper . Sounds like to me no helmet makes you happy ( you may as well but a cheap $100.00 with all the money on those 3 ) All three of mine are VERY light - that’s why I got them - due to neck injury. The first was the Tourtech ADV , a light helmet, good vision, visor worked well in high speeds . But was quite noisy, no dropdown tinted internal visor and build quality quite poor for a 800.00 helmet. Plastic fitting garbage. But because it cost me a lot I stuck it out for 2 years ( until I crashed and stuffed it ) was only a small off and basically it fell to bits . The Airoh on the other hand is even lighter, way better built quality, quieter and has a drop down tinted visor . It’s not perfect seems from the left side a bit of noise ? anyway it cost me 625 in Australia and will keep it until I destroy it . The Nishua Enduro Carbon unfortunately only comes in black but other than that is similar in weight & comfort to the Airoh ADV . ( only reason I have it was needed a new helmet and took so long to get here from Germany had to buy the Airoh from a local bike shop .
I think it depends on headshape, Shoei is a tight fit, and it hurts for maybe 20-30 hours, after that it fits perfect. I'm rigth between small and medium, but prefer to spend some hours to have it fit just perfect so I buy small. Liked the Hornet so much I got a second one to match my other bike, and the new one that is not "molded" to my head yet, is not as quiet as the older one.
My Neotec was horrible at first and my mouth was all squeezed in a kiss shape. But now it's perfect. Of course it's almost one year old the helmet now, but already after like a month if was fitting like a glove, no more squeezing on the cheeks. Needs more break in.
I have the Arai XD4 and one complaint I have is the shield. The curve of the front tends to give some distortions when looking down. The Shoei and the Klim are flatter. Looking to try the Tourtech Adv next.
Thanks much for a very insightful and costly analysis. One question: I have been using Transition prescription lens in my glasses for years and find that although they are everything you could wish them to be in direct line of sight sunshine, they are virtually useless inside of a car where they are shielded from that direct line of sight. Similar results even if the brim of a baseball cap interferes with line of sight. So, what has been your experience respecting the potential for the helmet visor to shield the face shield? Thanks again.
Wasn't an issue while on the move, but was annoying a bit when I stopped for a break and took the helmet off and then when putting it back on again the face shield was not uniformly tinted, but with brighter and darker spots all over the place for about a minute and half. Both on Klim and Shoei.
Same here. My ears hurt putting on (and off) the Shoei Hornet. Always need to wear a beanie. Strange also, to me the Shoei is more quite with the lid open than closed. Could be because of the buffeting on my bike ?
I saw a video you did with the tourtech suspension on your 1250 are you still liking it ? I have a 1200 gs thinking about adding it but it's an expensive upgrade...are you happy with the 790 or is it over rated by ktm marketing
Yeah, I've got a long oval head and the hornet fits me better than any other helmet I've tried. There is a tiny bit of room on the sides of the crown, but less than most other helmets that proclaim a medium oval head shape. Klim is hit or miss. I'm tired of companies building a name and then letting their quality deteriorate. My buddy's Krios got a busted snap on the chin strap after a couple months. It's disappointing to hear that one of the most expensive ADV helmets feels cheap. Two shell sizes is absolutely shameful. That kind of corner cutting should be reserved for entry level helmets. I've had a few pairs of Klim gloves and the fingers are often sewn on crooked, so the seams are on the pad of your finger. But, their Mojavi and Dakar pants have served me very well so far in a season of vigorous off-road riding with plenty of spills.
I chose the arai for same reasons. But Iam not experiencing the vision distortion you talk about . Maybe it’s the tinted visor you have , Iam using the clear one with pin lock
@@Elskins Im on the fence between the Ridge and the Poseidon. The Ridge looks fantastic but I'm concerned about how well it ventilates? Is that center open zip effective for venting? Thank you
@@gregmarles1648 Yes, that center open zip flows some good air. The downside is that if it starts raining or you get cold and want to close the main center zipper, you need both hands to do that, so you can't do that while riding. Also needs to be mentioned, that we don't have the hottest summers, temps rarely go above 30* Celsius.
Thank you for your very thorough comparison review. Arai and Shoei just are not the same head shape. My first Arai was a late 80's Mamola F1 and I still use Arai to this day but even back then if you wore a Nolan you fit a Arai, if you wore a AGV you fit a Shoei. Never known anyone in my experience to be able to be comfortable with both. You mention distortion of the Arai visor, I've not noticed that in any other review. Does the addition of pin-lock make it any worse.
This is one of the best comparisons I've watched. I plan to get the Arai Tour X4 (via online purchase) as shown here and my headsize is XL but I feel that I should get it in 2xl because I'm afraid that the XL might press against my ears and hurt since it is a narrow oval in shape. What do you think?
It will eventually brake in after a few hours and feel looser. And you can always peel off some foam layer if it feels too snug. That’s what I like in Arai.
A great review...but I'm left wanting a mixture of all 3. I really do want a light helmet but also small shell size...the search continues for the perfect helmet. Maybe Shoei for now, if Klim had a smaller shell size I might tolerate it. Shoei looks so slim, too bad it fits slim too...
Arai and Shoei are both high quality. No question, but heavy. Krios lightest. Does heavier weight or lightness translate into a safety benefit is the question. Is lighter better and easy, yet less safe? It maybe why Klim, an American company is not Snell certified but rather EU.
Thats a gopro Max 360 camera mounted on the bars or mirror. You can get any angle you want in post production, but it's a bit of a hustle to be honest and the video quality is quite poor.
What you didn't really show is how comfortable is the highway speed and head turning. I like the Shoei but it almost looks like a road helmet. Without the visor it would be perfect on a road bike or sport tourer, but doesn't feel very much off road. The Arai is more of a bit of both but if I understood correctly from other reviews, is worse for the highway compared to SHOEI and has a lot of head twisting if you look to the side at high speeds.
All of them will have a head drag if you start twisting your head. Nothing criminal, but it’s there. Can’t cheat the aerodynamics. I would love to keep Arai, always been an Arai fanboy, but I think this particular model looks outdated in 2021. And that vision distortion is no go for me.
How about shoei ventilation ? lot of review say hornet had a bad ventilation. I need my helmet cool due the climate in my country. Im wearing rx7x / corsair x. And it perform very well on ventilation.
@@Elskins in same speed? Im considering buy hornet. But im unconfident bout the ventilation. I can go with arai tour cros with much more vent hole. But it look kinda out of date compare to hornet.
Save your money and get a Bell MX-9 Adventure, adjust the padding to your liking and be done with it. Their helmets are always in stock and they have an assortment of colors and they don't punish you on price for actually wanting a multicolor helmet. Stick with Bell. After so much searching I came back to my original with a future purchase of the same helmet in a different color. In the mean time I bought two shields which can be interchangeable with the upcoming helmet, all very affordable.
I have the KLIM Krios Pro and I wouldn’t say it is shit. I agree, with the video, that it is quite big for small heads like mine. It looks quite disproportional when is worn. I would disagree that it is not good quality though. I think people take it as average quality because it is light. I would say that it is better than cheap/average helmets, but I agree that it may not be up to Arai and Shoei standards. I would say also that the ventilation is quite good, the peripheral vision fantastic and you can wear it with the peak in highway speeds without issues. I don’t have issues with the visor either as it stays open without problem (And there is a way to tight or loose the mechanism as well), and the transitions visor is really really cool and useful. Finally I must mention that recently I had an accident where this helmet kept me safe and the company honour the 5 year warranty and product replacement without give me any trouble (I just had to fill some forms and that’s it).
The Klim Krios Pro is a $800 helmet after taxes. You would expect perfection in all aspects and it's almost there BUT the visor will NOT stay where you place it. Open it up a few notches for extra air, first little dip or bump in the road and SLAM down it comes! I love everything about this helmet except the hinge plates. They are very cheaply made. It makes me wonder if anyone that actually rides tests them?? It is a $800 helmet WT Actual F?!
I have to disagree with you as I tried the Klim over a weekend. Bad fit (for my head) noisy, visor to flimsy and uncomfy. I went with the Arai as it has the best fit for me and super comfy and the build quality is second to none and definately superior to Klim
The Best detailed review so far! Stay good, Thank You!
