Why riders pick it
- Intermediate Oval interior shape
- Three configurations: shield only for the street, peak with goggles for off-road, or shield and peak together for adventure riding
- VAS-A Max Vision shield attaches and removes without tools; the peak uses one screw per side
- Redesigned peak for better ventilation and high-speed flow-through, more sun-blocking adjustment and less buffeting
- Mouth shutter opening is double the size of the XD-4, with no mesh vent needed
- Inner shutter directs chin vent air to your mouth or onto the shield to help reduce fogging
- Front logo vent keeps airflow steady regardless of riding position
- AR spoiler reduces fatigue from turbulent air and draws hot air from the crown
- Retractable air flap reduces wind intrusion from below and helps pull out warm, humid breath
- Odor and stain resistant liner with removable 5mm micro-fit foam at the temples and rear
- Re-sculpted Hyper-Ridge gives flat shell sides for mounting a comms unit
- Deep, wide speaker pockets with a hook and loop panel, plus a neck roll wire pocket
- Pinlock insert included with the helmet

Details
The XD-5 is Arai's adventure helmet, completely redesigned from the XD-4. It is built for the rider whose trip mixes highway, back roads and dirt, and who wants one helmet for all of it.
You can run it three ways: shield only for the street, peak only with your goggles off-road, or shield and peak together for true ADV riding. The VAS-A Max Vision shield comes off without tools and the peak uses a single screw on each side. Arai's manual warns the peak is not meant for high-speed use, so take it off for long, fast highway days.
Airflow is a big step up. The mouth shutter opening is double the size of the XD-4's, and an inner shutter lets you aim that air at your mouth or at the shield to fight fogging. A front logo vent keeps air coming whether you sit up or tuck in, and the AR spoiler pulls hot air from the crown. A retractable air flap under the chin cuts wind from below.
For comms, the Hyper-Ridge has flat sides for mounting a unit, the speaker pockets are deep and wide with a hook and loop panel, and the neck roll has a pocket for spare wiring. The liner is odor and stain resistant with removable 5mm micro-fit foam, a Pinlock insert comes in the box, the fit is Intermediate Oval, and it is DOT and Snell M2020 certified.
