[New Product] Tadashi's Eyeball! Arai's Flagship Full-Face Helmet "RX-7X" Gets New Color Scheme 〈SP TADAO〉

Arai's RX-7X has been updated with the replica color scheme 〈SP TADAO〉, inspired by Tadao Suzuki, the founder of SP Tadao, a long-established muffler manufacturer and prestigious racing team. The most distinctive feature is undoubtedly the "eyeball" design.

Arrangement of SP Tadao's Original Standard Design

SP Tadao is known as a muffler manufacturer and also as a prestigious racing team that continues to produce top racing riders such as Tetsuya Harada, Shinya Nakano, and Katsuyuki Nakasuga. Now, a replica color helmet of its founder, Tadao Suzuki, is available.

The base model is Arai's flagship racing full-face helmet, the RX-7X. The biggest highlight is the large eyeball design, which is characteristic of the "Tada-Heru" (Tadao's Helmet). Within SP Tadao, it is said that "only fast riders can wear this," and while there are various color variations depending on the rider, the 〈SP TADAO〉 model features the original standard design in a blue x red two-tone color scheme.

The origin of this eyeball helmet dates back to when Tadao Suzuki, a former All Japan Motocross Champion, drew it on his own helmet. With his bold riding style captivating fans and his distinctive helmet, he became popular as "Eyeball no Tadashi-san" (Tadashi of the Eyeballs).

The RX-7X〈SP TADAO〉 inherits all the features of the RX-7X, such as Arai's unique egg-shaped form for improved impact deflection and the PB-SNC2 shell that balances rigidity and lightness. The price is 84,700 yen (tax included), and the release is scheduled for mid-October 2026.
