Visor Arai VPR GP-6/SK-6, Gold

Original visor from Arai - for Arai racing helmets GP-6 + GP-6S + SK-6 helmet.
The Arai VPR visor has an untinted top edge; this visor is required in certain forms of competition.

Your visor protects against wind blast and, above all, against eye injuries in the event of an accident.

There are many different tints/colours to choose from - the right visor under the right conditions has a major impact on how well you see!

Also bear in mind that visors wear over time; small scratches add up to reduce visibility. We recommend replacing your visor every year or every other year.

Which tint you prefer is largely a matter of personal preference. Below is a brief overview of the characteristics of the different tints.

*Red
Arai's red visor is fundamentally a darker visor that has been coated with a red/oil-coloured surface.

Red helps you distinguish colours and improves visual acuity.
They are suited to medium to bright days. A good choice on sunnier days, and they also work in poorer light conditions.

*Blue
Blue visors are fundamentally dark visors with a blue surface.
They have a light transmission slightly lower than the red-tinted and mirror-coated visors and are suited to sunny days

*Green
Green visors are fundamentally dark visors with a green surface. The green tint gives you better depth perception and reduces eye fatigue on sunny days.
Recommended for sun and changeable cloud cover.

*Silver
Silver-tinted visors have a light transmission midway between dark and smoke-tinted.
Thanks to the reflective mirror surface, mirror visors are better at preventing you from being dazzled by sun glare etc.

Silver visors have a distinct silver surface seen from the outside, but are experienced by the rider as a pair of medium-dark sunglasses.
Colours are slightly muted with this visor, but contrasts still come through well.

*Clear
Clear or untinted visors are recommended for low light at dawn and dusk or on very rainy days.
This visor is standard, and you should have one for every helmet.

*Dark
Dark visors are comparable to a pair of really dark sunglasses.
These are suited to days with strong, bright sun and blue skies.
Dark visors have significantly reduced light transmission and remove some of the colours, so they should not be used on 'partly sunny' days.
A smoke-tinted visor is recommended instead for those conditions.

*Smoke
Smoke-tinted visors reduce light by around 50%; they are very good for days with changeable sun or weaker sunlight.

A smoke-tinted visor is fairly forgiving in poor light and works in many circumstances.
Smoke should be one of your standard visors.
