    I have an Arai Chaser V that I am not using and it is in immaculate condition, so thought I would see if anyone is interested in it. It has no marks or scratches and never been dropped or knocked. It is kept in its helmet bag and in it’s original box and a lovely helmet.
    I always wanted a Shoei and my wife bought me one as a surprise gift, so it is a shame for the Arai to be sat in a box.
    It is size M - 57cm. It comes complete with a Pinlock sun visor as per the picture along with the original visor, both in as new condition.
    Open to sensible offers, prefer collection.

    JPB, I lust after this helmet! But....I have a number of helmets already. And I live in the US so it would entail shipping. What is the date that this helmet was produced? Also, you said "open to sensible offers". I did look at a representative (I think) smattering of prices on this lid but what is a sensible offer to you? I do wear a medium in all the helmets I've ever owned (Bell, Shoei, Schubert, Biltwell) but haven't ever had an Arai. From my research it seems that this helmet model is an intermediate oval head shape design which is what works for me. Any other info you can provide? Oh, are the design colors red, white, and black? Or it the dark color blue? And it looks like the pinstripe is gold, yes? Thanks!

    Hi Sandi, the dark colour is green on this helmet, I have copied a picture off the internet to give a better view as I am away from home for the next few days. I have had some interest and waiting on a guy who has offered £175 and he wants to come and se e it on Friday. I am back home on Thursday and will check o the production date for you. Many thanks.

    Thanks for the additional photo, JPB. I'm glad you sent me a better view of the colors. I think I'll pass as I'm a little particular (ok, then, OCD) about how things match...bike, jacket, helmet, etc. I was thinking it was primarily red, white, and black. There are too many colors in this graphic to be just what I'm after. It is a beauty, though! Hope you sell it to the guy who offered £175--I'll keep my fingers crossed. Thanks again!

    Yes,
    thanks Sandi, no problem. I think this is the colour scheme you mean.
    I think the guy is keen as he is interested in some boots and a Daniele jacket I am selling too.

    Yep, that Arai you pictured is more up my alley, JPB. Hope the guy buys all your goodies!
