My pinlock insert on the visor of my helmet (obv, where else it gnna go! Doh! lol) Has started to steam up in the middle at low speeds, etc. basically not working.


Any treatment kit or something for this, or do i need to replace?


Thanks

The pins are adjustable.


Remove the pinlock, clean the visor and dry.


Use a duster and lightly wipe over the Pinlock.


Re assemble and adjust the pins to form airtight seal.

Pinlocks are also made of a moisture absorbing material, so when you take your lid off make sure the visor is open and left in a place that is room temp (i.e. not in the garage or a shed).

Also, if you ride at high speeds with the visor open then it can force moisture between the visor and insert and therefore cause it to mist up. Like others have said, take out the insert, give it a clean and dry, then see how you get on.

This happens to me sometimes,it seems that my pinlock moves slightly down when i handle my lid, breaking the seal. So if it starts to steam up, i just open my visor and push it back into position and it seems to work
