A helmet like new on the inside.
A tired interior
Over time, the padding of a helmet becomes compressed: the helmet becomes too loose, shifts on the head, and offers less protection. It also absorbs sweat and eventually loses its freshness, despite washes. Replacing them provides a precise fit and impeccable hygiene, at a cost much lower than that of a new helmet, as long as the shell hasn't sustained any impact.

The maintenance of the helmet also includes:
All maintenance is gathered on the maintenance page.
Refining the fit
Cheek pads often come in several thicknesses, like with Arai, to refine the fit: thicker pads tighten a helmet that floats, while thinner pads ease a helmet that’s too tight. The helmet should hold the cheeks firmly, without any pressure points that cause discomfort on the forehead. You should check the exact model reference of the helmet and its size before ordering.
Liners and balaclava
Complete liners, like those from LS2 or Scorpion, replace the entire interior, shell and cheeks. The technical, antibacterial, and breathable fabrics wick away sweat. The balaclava Premier, worn between the head and the padding, protects them from sweat and extends their lifespan. Removable padding should be hand washed in lukewarm soapy water.

Frequently asked questions
When should you change the padding of your motorcycle helmet?
When the helmet shifts on the head, turns during a sudden movement, or leaves a gap at the cheeks, the padding is compressed. A persistent smell despite washing is also a sign.
How to wash the padding of a motorcycle helmet?
Remove them from the helmet, then wash them by hand in lukewarm soapy water or machine wash in a delicate cycle using a mesh bag. Allow them to air dry, away from a source of heat.
Can thicker pads improve the fit of the helmet?
Yes, thicker cheek pads tighten the fit of a helmet that has become too loose, provided that the shell size remains suitable. Arai thus offers cheek pads in several thicknesses.
What is the purpose of a motorcycle balaclava?
The balaclava, like the one from Premier, is worn between the head and the liner. It absorbs sweat, protects the padding from wear, and provides a little warmth in winter.
Are the pads compatible from one helmet to another?
No, each pad is designed for a specific helmet model and size. You should check the helmet reference, Scorpion, Nox, or Stormer for example, as well as its size before ordering.
