Product Information
Full details
The Arai SAI Pro Shade System in Grey is designed for adult touring riders seeking enhanced all-weather vision with their Arai helmets. Its key benefit is providing an integrated, flip-down sun visor to combat glare and improve comfort, especially in upright riding positions. A notable caveat is that dark tinted, colored, and iridium versions are not road legal. This system combines a clear SAI visor with a Pinlock system and the innovative Pro Shade component, offering a versatile solution for varied riding conditions.

FAQs
Which Arai helmets is this Pro Shade System compatible with?
The Arai VAS-V Visor with Pro Shade System is compatible with the Axces 2, Chaser-V, Quantum-ST, Rebel, and RX-7GP helmet models.
How do I deploy the Pro Shade?
To deploy the Pro Shade, simply pull the system forward to unlock it, then flip it down with a flick of your hand.
Is the tinted Pro Shade lens road legal?
Clear visors and light smoke/tinted visors are road legal. Dark smoke/dark tint, colored, and iridium visors are intended for race/track use only and are generally not road legal. Always confirm with your local regulations.
Does the Pro Shade system help with fogging?
While the Pro Shade system primarily addresses sun glare, it comes with a Pinlock system included, which is highly effective against fogging and misting.
Can I replace just the tinted lens on the Pro Shade?
The product description does not specify if the tinted lens is individually replaceable. It is sold as a complete system.
What is included in the box?
The box includes the SAI Clear Visor, a Pinlock system, and the Pro Shade System itself.
How do I clean the Pro Shade system?
Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild, non-abrasive cleaning solution. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
Troubleshooting
Pro Shade System is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure the mechanism is clean and free of debris. Gently flex the mechanism to loosen it. If the issue persists, check for any obstructions around the pivot points.
Visor fogs up despite Pinlock
Ensure the Pinlock insert is correctly installed and sealed against the main visor. Check that the small breather vent on the helmet (if applicable) is open.
Pro Shade does not lock in the up position
Verify that the Pro Shade is fully retracted and aligned correctly with the locking mechanism. Ensure no dirt or damage is preventing a secure lock.
Sun glare is still visible
Adjust the position of the Pro Shade. Ensure the main visor is clean. If using a non-road legal tint, consider a road-legal alternative for street use.
