DescriptionThe whole story

The Kiyo Trico edition of the Arai RX-7V Evo is more than a graphic — it is a statement of racing heritage rendered in a gloss finish that demands attention on pit lane and open road alike. Built on Arai's most refined road-racing platform and certified to the stringent ECE 22.06 standard, this is the helmet that bridges the world of professional competition and everyday riding without compromise.

Key Features

  • ECE 22.06 and FIM homologated — meets the toughest approval standards for both road and circuit use
  • Fiberglass composite shell offers an exceptional strength-to-weight balance at approximately 1,550 g (± 50 g)
  • VAS MAX Vision visor delivers a panoramic field of view in all conditions, all year round
  • Pinlock anti-fog insert included as standard — no additional purchase required
  • Redesigned cheek pads with repositioned lateral air channels moved to the rear of the pad for a more refined fit and improved airflow
  • Fully removable and washable interior lined with Eco Pure material for lasting freshness
  • Double-D-ring retention system and a 5-year Arai warranty included

Design and Finish

The Kiyo Trico livery is part of the 2023 Arai replica collection, finished in a high-gloss lacquer that brings the graphic's layered colour work to life. Each curve of the RX-7V Evo shell is shaped by decades of Arai's hand-crafted production philosophy, resulting in a silhouette that is immediately recognisable on track and as visually compelling at a standstill.

Evolution Over the RX-7V

The Evo designation reflects a genuine engineering step forward from the original RX-7V. Recertification under ECE R22-06 — the most demanding European helmet standard in force — drove meaningful updates: the cheek-pad architecture was revised, with the lateral ventilation channels relocated to the rear of the pad to reduce pressure points and improve interior airflow management. The interior lining was simultaneously upgraded to Eco Pure material, a softer and more durable fabric that washes easily and retains its shape through extended use.

Shell and Safety Architecture

Arai builds the RX-7V Evo shell from a multi-layer fiberglass composite, hand-laminated at its factory in Omiya, Japan. The rounded outer profile — a core Arai design principle — is engineered to glance and deflect impact energy rather than absorbing it in a single point, complementing the ECE 22.06 energy-management requirements. The result is a shell that is both exceptionally strong and compliant with the most current regulatory demands.

Comfort and Practicality

The RX-7V Evo uses a race-oriented fit that sits close against the head, providing the precise, movement-free connection riders expect on circuit. This sporting geometry means the helmet is less suited to eyeglass wearers. The interior is fully removable and machine washable. Bluetooth intercom systems can be fitted conditionally, in line with SHARP's listed communication system compatibility for the RX-7V Evo — compatibility should be confirmed with your chosen intercom manufacturer before purchase.

Size Guide

  • XS — 53-54 cm
  • S — 55-56 cm
  • M — 57-58 cm
  • L — 59 cm
  • XL — 60-61 cm

Please note: the outer shell for size XL is one size larger than the XS–L shell (size 88 versus size 86). Factor this in if you are comparing against a previous RX-7V.

Fitment and Compatibility

The Arai RX-7V Evo is a universal helmet approved for road and racing use across all motorcycle categories. Intercom compatibility should be verified with the intercom manufacturer prior to fitment. Not recommended for regular eyeglass wearers due to the close race-fit interior.

“The only helmet here with five SHARP stars, and the ventilation is genuinely the best of the traditional shells. You pay for it in weight — 1,568 g is a lot after two sessions — and the long-oval interior will not suit every rider.”
