Guest Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 How do you remove the visor from a duchinni D419? It has no levers at the sides x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boothy Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 If i were you, i'd remove the whole helmet, bin it, and buy something thats actually safe and sturdy... +1, I would not put my phone in one and throw it down the street never mind my head. Remember when buying a helmet, what price do you put on your head. Look here also viewtopic.php?f=32&t=15767Boothy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asharin Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Personally if I was going to slate a helmet, I'd look up it's safety ratings first before putting foot in mouth.http://sharp.direct.gov.uk/testsratings/duchinni-d419As opposed to a 'better' helmet such as the Arai Condor...http://sharp.direct.gov.uk/testsratings/arai-condorMore expensive doesn't always mean better....

Guest Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 I'm not saying that he should be buying more expensive helmets Ash, but i've picked up and tried a fair few duchinis, because i tried one and was shocked at its flimsyness, so if i ever see one, i try it to see if anything has improved... And they haven't.Truly terrible lids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asharin Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Can't be that bad, they beat a few more expensive helmets in the sharp tests. However I hate them anyway as they're uncomfortable None of us have actually answered the original post though Can you remember how to take the visor off? I can't lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cypek Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 I have a Duchinni D801 helmet and the only problem with it is its a bit loud but I've also tried my gf's KBC helmet and her new Shoei (we have very similar fit) To be honest Shoei is not much better and KBC was even louder.As for visor removal... Don't know about your model but I have a little lever on each side which I just need to lift to release visor...EDIT:If you have a good eye have a look at this pic:http://images.esellerpro.com/2189/I/168/99/lrgscaleDuchinni-D419-Ace-Motorcycle-Helmet-Red-1.jpgLooks like there may be some kind of button right next to that silver ball-thingy and visor needs to be correctly aligned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
