Visors

New immaculate visor for my Schuberth C5, comes with a new Pinlock. With the C5 visor & Pinlock, I couldn't twist the pins, you need to knock them out & tap them back in until the the Pinlock is sealed properly. It takes a while, but worth the effort to reduce the condensation on the inside of the visor

The visor arrived next day well packaged. But the new pinlock i ordered did'nt fit very well, attempted to adjust the pins and the groove for the screwdriver broke, i had to file out the grooves in the pinlock to make it fit and seal properly.
Not sure if it was user error or a defective pin.

Provides clear unmisted vision in nearly all weather conditions, granted some winter mornings can be a challenge

Gives a fantastic tint from the sun without changing colours. Looks amazing

Certainly makes the helmet look lot better

I ordered this visor system for my Arai Concept helmet, it wasn't available initially as Arai hadn't produced one for that helmet.
The idea of being able to switch between clear and tinted on the move really sounded like a great idea, and when doing long distance touring it's good not to have to carry another visor when space is at a premium.
First issue was that when the tinted section is in the up position it's very noisy, even with earplugs. When it's down, it's no noisier than a standard Arai helmet fitted with vents, ok with earplugs. The clear portion that's left at the bottom of the visor when closed is useful for the reading of satnavs. Second issue with this system is when the tinted visor is up with the clear section in the slightly "cracked" open position for ventilation is the tendency for it to flip up when doing "lifesavers"
This eventually was it's downfall. I was travelling along a dual carriageway and did a lifesaver look over my left shoulder to see if anything was merging at a junction and "Snap" the tinted section just flew off, taking one of the outer triangular shaped fixings with it. My immediate thought was "Good riddance!"
Now you might think speed was an issue but my bike is a 1972 Norton Commando so make your own mind up with that!
To sum up:
With the tinted section in the down position in bright sunlight it worked well, despite looking through two layers. When it was up it was just a pain.
Keeping both visors clean also had it's issues.
