To measure the circumference of your head wrap a cloth measuring tape around your head just above your eyebrows. Pull the tape comfortably snug, and read the length. Compare it to the measurements in the Head Circumference table and then check the Size Selection table to ensure the helmet series you are interested in fits your head shape.

Determining Head Shape
After many, many years of listening to riders, Arai has found that helmet satisfaction starts with understanding helmets. Most importantly, understanding how proper fit affects helmet performance during everyday riding, and how that comfort extends to the helmet's interior shape. This is why Arai has gone to the considerable effort to design, create, and offer three different interior shapes. (Arai does not believe that all-day comfort can be achieved by trying to stuff every different head shape into a single helmet interior shape.)
In order to offer the most comfort, a helmet interior must fit snugly around the entire head contour. (This is partly determined by firm, even pressure at all contact points, and without pressure points that could become uncomfortable in the future). A previous helmet of the same brand, model and size - even if an Arai - may not offer the same fit as a current model or size because the evolution of design and use of new materials can affect the final design and shape (For example, such advances and refinements have made the interior shapes of our new RX-7 Corsair and Quantum-2 models able to fit more riders than their immediate predecessors, the RX-7 RR4 and Quantum/f.).
Attention must also be paid to the fit of the model's shape around the crown of your head - and not with facial fit. (The part that is contacted by a baseball cap's band, for example, is the crown). Cheek pads in all Arai helmets can be replaced with a size that better suits your facial structure, so the possible need for different cheek pads should only be addressed after the crown is properly sized. All too often, tight OEM cheek pads will result in purchasing a helmet one or even two sizes too big - in effect sizing the face and not the head! The end result will be a loose and noisy helmet, as described above. Riders with a strong jaw or heavy cheeks should first remove the cheekpads completely in order to not be distracted in determining crown fit.
How can you determine which of Arai's three interior shapes is best suited for you? In general, Arai interiors for the North American markets have an oval shape orientation (somewhat longer front-to-back and a little narrow from side- to-side) because that is the shape that tends to fit most. Different models then vary slightly based on that general Oval shape to accommodate a much wider fit range.
LONG OVAL Very long front-to-back, very narrow side-to-side. On this end of the scale, we have the new Profile model, offering additional forehead room for those who find that most helmets have pressure points in the forehead.
INTERMEDIATE OVAL A little shorter front-to-back and a little wider side-to-side than the Long Oval. This next fit package comes in the RX-7 Corsair model, which begins the shift from oblong towards round.
ROUND OVAL Even a little shorter front-to-back and a little widerside-to-side. This next fit package is represented by both the Quantum-2 and our Astral-X models.
The Astral-X has a slightly more "relaxed" fit - a bit more room in the forehead area - mainly because the Astral has a non-removable liner.
The Quantum-2's liner, on the other hand, is fully-removable, which makes it feel a bit more "round". Be sure to try both on to determine which feels better on your head.
No one pays more attention to the subtle variations and the infinite possibilities of the human head shape than Arai. And even though they know they can never build a perfect shape for everyone, Arai spends the extra time and expense to make a genuine effort to offer shapes that allow more people to find a better and more comfortable fit than by simply offering one shape in every model.
This is why it's important for you to understand the different aspects of sizing as it relates to brands, models and in Arai's case - interior shapes.

Oversize items are not eligible for free or discounted shipping offers. Discounts are already built into the price of all oversize items as a regular practice to make the shipping price more reasonable. When your order contains a mixture of standard and oversize items you will only be charged shipping on the oversize items. Items eligible for free or discounted shipping will remain free or discounted.
In rare cases where we have not correctly identified the shipping weight of an oversize item we might require additional payment. This is extremely rare, but is possible due to the number of different products we offer. We will always give you this information before charging you and you will have the option of canceling the order instead of paying the increased charge.
Free or Discounted Shipping
We offer free domestic shipping on orders over $250. Some restrictions apply. Domestic shipping covers all 50 states,
Washington D.C. and APO addresses. All other destinations fall under the international shipping offer. Some
exclusions apply; see the full details below.
Shipping discounts are automatically applied during checkout based on the sub-total of your order and eligibility of
items in your shopping cart. Free or discounted shipping only applies to the standard shipping method and not
upgraded services.
Shipping Carriers and Services
AMS Ducati will determine the shipping carrier and service for orders that qualify for free or discounted shipping.
We use a range of available services from the following carriers: USPS and UPS. If you require a
specific shipping carrier or service we will attempt to accommodate under the free or discounted shipping program.
If the shipping method requested is more expensive than our selected shipping method you will have the option to pay
the difference between the two. This will be handled by our support team and on a case-by-case basis.
Split Shipments
Orders that qualify for free or discounted shipping will be shipped in a single package (whenever possible). If there
is a backorder or special order and you would like to split the order into multiple shipments we are happy to
accommodate, but you will be responsible for any additional shipping charges.
Exclusions from Free or Discounted Shipping
The following items typically do not qualify for free or discounted shipping. We've attempted to identify these items
in our catalog so they will automatically be excluded, but we reserve the right to adjust shipping manually after
the order has been placed for oversize items that were unidentified. We will get your approval prior to charging the
difference to your payment method.
If your order contains items that both do and do not qualify for free or discounted shipping we will only charge
shipping for the items that do not qualify. Qualified items still ship free.
Please read our shipping policies support page as well. It contains
further details on shipping, insurance, tracking and more - much of which also applies to shipments that qualify for
free or discounted shipping.
IN STOCK AND READY TO SHIP!
Experience the thrill of the track with the Ducati Corse V8 Flag helmet. Specially made by Arai for sports riding, this full-face helmet is a synergy of style, comfort and safety. Modern and vibrant, it stands out due to its signature Drudi Performance design, featuring a fluorescent color mix inspired by the tricolor that unleashes all its dynamic appeal. The outer shell in PB-SNC2 (Structural Net Composite), adds rigidity to the resin, protecting against impact and dissipating energy upon impact. Further enhancing rider safety is the “Peripherally Belted SNC” system, a protective reinforcement band that wraps around the upper area of the shell. The patented, anti-fog visor with increased internal V-Shield support compared to the previous version, offers the rider comfort and safety thanks to the VAS technology, which envisages perfect peripheral vision. The diffuser with optimized aerodynamics, side extractor and upper air vent with improved airflow efficiency are elements of the advanced ventilation mechanism, which also features a new sliding clasp that can reduce noise while increasing the helmet's durability and water resistance. The FCS elastic foam support has been extended to the cheekbone to provide a more comfortable fit and excellent stability at high speeds. The inner liner in fine Eco-Pure® hypoallergenic fabric and ventilated neck padding are removable and washable. Comfort, safety and an unashamedly racing look are the ingredients of this top-of-the-line helmet. The adrenaline rush is served.
Designed after the Arai Corsair-X, this helmet features an intermediate oval head shape.
Specifications:
Outside:
PB-SNC2 (Structural Net Composite) shell that adds rigidity to the resin in the different layers of fibers and strengthening materials inside the shell
Peripherally Belted SNC Shell: a belt laid peripherally on the top of the eye-opening of the shell, increasing its rigidity
Inside:
Removable interior in Eco-Pure® fabric with very limited frame area
Facial Contour System (FCS). A foam spring support in the cheek pad that compresses and rebounds makes putting the helmet on easier. The cheek pad wraps under the jaw- and cheekbone instead of mostly on the soft cheek area. FCS offers a looser fit with secure support over a larger area providing superior stability and comfort with minimal pressure
Visor:
Wider visor for a perfect peripheral vision. The wider visor aperture gives better visibility on bends
CE-approved thermoformed visor, scratchproof and anti fog
