The GP-6S helmet

The ARAI GP-6S helmet

The successor of the much loved GP-5K model comes with Snell and FIA 8859-2015 approvals. Using the same shell shape as the GP-6 and GP-6RC, the GP-6S offers an affordable price level while still maintaining a host of features and innovations. The GP-6S utilizes the same shield as the GP-6 as well as the same larger eye port size for increased peripheral vision.

The GP-6S utilizes a single intake and single exhaust and the forward vent has been enlarged to improve air intake and improve overall ventilation performance.The CLC outer shell uses much of the GP-6 RC technology and styling. Improved ventilation thanks to larger duct ventilation holes. Fire resistant lining made of three materials: Carbon Nit ®, Nomex® and Conex® fabrics. Yellow Kevlar® chin strap. Comes with FHR M6 studs.

SIZES AVAILABLE: XS/54, S/56, M/58, L/60, XL/62
