My Dad dropped his Arai on the floor and the top vent bit broke off. He sent it to Arai to get checked out (for free) and they also glued a new vent on the top.

If you got it from a recognised Arai dealer (somewhere like Hein Gerick) you should be able to take it back to them and they'll do the rest!

yeah went into hein gericke. ordered a new one (£18 seems pricey for a small bit of plastic) and they lent me a spare pod till mine arrived which was very nice of them.

they had no idea how long the pod would take to arive and said they have waited months in the past. still got me a working visor so all good (if not matching now).

I just ordered new pods on the internet and fitted it myself. Think it cost me around £20 for both sides posted.

Ahem, yes. Twice.

Once for me.

Once for BernardBikerchick when I offered to show her how easy it is to change an Arai visor.
