I just bought a new Airoh Aviator helmet and im wonder what goggles you guys are running with this particular helmet.

I have worn Arai helmets for years but i thought i would give the Airoh a try becaue i was really liking the lighter weight and a few of the other features. So far thouigh i must say that im not thoroughly impressed with the helmet.

I have tried crowbars, EKS and Dragon goggles do far and as of yet i havent found a goggle that seems to fit correctly and not effect my breathing.

Thanks in advance

Not sure about your situation as I don't use an Arai or Airoh, but the only goggles I've found that fit without pinching my nose are Smith.

My friend has to trim the foam around the nose of every goggle he's used, all the way down to the plastic.

I have a pair of NFX's and they may be the ticket. They are so large and the positioning of the straps makes them to where they don't fit particularly tight to the face - to the point where it can be a problem letting dirt in. That's paired with my size small Kali helmet though.


I just can't figure out the damn tear-offs, unless I just got a bad batch. I have not put a single one on that didn't split before I got the nub in. I usually just put one on to protect the lens and fix the tear with scotch tape/

Spy's don't seem to pinch either.

I love my EKS brand..but they suffocate me.

I've been using an Airoh helmet for about a year, and I love it. I run Scott Voltage Pro-Air goggles, which fit great.

Exactly the goggles I was going to suggest.

Or try the Scott Hustle and Tyrant goggles, they allow you to adjust the nose area to fit your face.

I love my Tyrants and the Voltage Pros.

Great advice guys, I will give those a try. I think ill also try trimming the foam a little it on my Dragons and EKS to see if helps before ordering the Scotts.

I always thought I had trouble with the goggle fit on the Arai helmets but it was never anything like this!!

I prefer the Oakley mayhem because it doesn't obstruct my breathing.. How do you like the helmet otherwise? I've almost bought one a dozen times.. I just don't wanna sacrifice safety..

so far im liking it but I don't have a lot of time in it due to the goggle situation. I can tell you that the sizes seem to run a little small compared to Arai. the quality and detail is really nice on the helmet and its one of the lightest helmets on the market.
