How to Install a Pinlock Insert on a Shoei Helmet

[@Adhdad1]

Cheers man, I looked at the instructions twice...still couldn’t make sense of it. They wrote it way more complex than you made it, so thanks heaps.

[@DCyclemoto]

You’re very welcome!

[@kyfy24]

To the point. Helpful. No fluff no bs. Great video and thanks for the help.

[@CharlieOmega]

I would always ride without the pin lock and my visor would fog up. This pin lock system is a must.

[@SinCityRick]

Thanks much more concise than the Shoei supplied instructions!

[@DCyclemoto]

No problem!

[@davidherringgo]

Thanks for the video instruction on installing the pin lock . I just hope I don't see those little pins on the regular shield in my peripheral vision .

[@pd6569]

I just about to install my evo on my shoei neotec 2; thank you for the video, it is very helpful. Be and ride safe.

[@AWSKAKER77]

I came to make sure I could flatten it out that much before installing.

[@blazer90815]

Thanks bro….. the directions were a bit long winded. Fits perfect.

[@DCyclemoto]

Awesome!

[@motomattman1878]

Pin Lock inserts are a must have in the cold or chilly weather!

[@MADLITS1K]

Thanks for making it super simple and getting to the point, just put it on my shoei x14 👍

[@Biker_Johnny86]

Awesome man! Thank you.. just ordered me a shoei helmet. Cant wait! 🤩

[@bcbsilverhawk8426]

Ordered this exact same helmet last night. Looking forward to giving it a go. Take care.

[@DCyclemoto]

It's a good one!

[@drjones694]

Thank you short and sweet and to the point

[@DCyclemoto]

DrJones694 You’re very welcome! And I have had zero fogging since install. Great product!

[@SurfnPics]

Thanks for the simple clear instructions, though there are 2-3 warning panels in the Pinlock instructions recommending you don't install it with a tinted lens due to the loss of visibility

[@DCyclemoto]

Its pretty much a clear, so visibility isn’t an issue.

[@RussOasis]

Thanks. Easy peasy. You made it simple.

[@DCyclemoto]

For sure!

[@razzrasmussen5773]

I now have a Shoei helmet. Viewing video was helpful. Thanks brother. Hooah

[@DCyclemoto]

Heck yeah!!

[@jimweagant8920]

I have 2 pinlock shields on both of my helmets and they work great

[@johneichorst3134]

I've got one on my Hornet X2 Dual-Sport helmet. Super happy with the lid and the pinlock. I ride a lot in cold weather.

[@DCyclemoto]

JOHN EICHORST It did well for me just this past Sunday on a 60° day!

[@chrism7249]

Thanks for the reminder as I've got my Shoei nxr2 arriving today and I had forgot how I fitted the last pin lock in my current Shoei 😅

[@TrashPanda5150]

Love the pinlock shield, I don't know how anyone can ride without it. If anyone has trouble with the seal I think the pins can be adjusted slightly to help that. Can't wait for spring! The temp here in central Iowa is 1, lol. I'm tired of it!

[@DCyclemoto]

TrashPanda 365 #wintersucks Thanks for sharing!🤘🏻

[@DirtyDeez]

Good video for this time of year D

[@DCyclemoto]

Dirty Deez Any video will do in this time of winter suckage. #wintersucks

[@maverick1685]

Thank you, I new there was a correct way.

[@GreatEgret]

"Looks like an 80s road map" 🤣 Nice job on the Darth Vader sound effect. I had some issues with my pin lock fogging up in colder temps and rain in Texas and Oklahoma, but worked fine in warmer temps. A good cleaning of shield helped out.

[@DCyclemoto]

That’s how I breathe, bruh! 😆 It will get the real test come ride time! Maybe I’ll do a riding review then.

[@TheGearedRaven72]

Very professional. Glad it worked as expected. Thanks for sharing

[@blujack100]

I got the same helmet with the transitions shield. I wear transitions glasses too. Should be a good combination I hope.

[@DCyclemoto]

will s Nice! The transition shield would be handy indeed.

[@poppysadventures2020]

Let’s go Pens. I just got SHOEI RF-1400 and will be installing my pinlock today as well.

[@DCyclemoto]

That was a spanking!

[@nigelgibson2407]

Hi. I have a Shoei installed with a Pinlock and definitely appreciate it's anti-fogging capabilities. I live in the UK where it rains a LOT. When cleaning the helmet it looked like there was a bead of sealant around the pinlock. Is this needed or helpful? I have an added issue with fogging in that I wear glasses so I need to ensure those don't fog up instead. Love the helmets though and have headphones installed for phone, and Sat Nav.

[@matthewljr0809]

I opened the package cause I didn’t know what it was, do you think I can keep it outside the package for a month until my tinted visor arrives without it losing its ability to stick?

[@michaillouvranos293]

I like the Darth Vader effect!🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@robertmacdonald2735]

No is this something you would take off once summer comes then back on in fall?

[@DCyclemoto]

I always leave mine on

[@robertmacdonald2735]

@@DCyclemoto Mines on now and I will leave it...thanks for the instructional vid

[@joevento8514]

should it just remain on all the time or just when needed

[@DCyclemoto]

I leave it in. They don’t work forever unfortunately.

[@RoadRashHD]

I wish i had a pin lock on my helmet. Mine always fogs up on me in the morning going to work,i have to leave it open just a crack to prevent fogging,and i still get it happening

[@DCyclemoto]

Road Rash HD What helmet you wearing?

[@plouiswags1659]

I wonder why they just aren't pre installed? Seems silly not to utilize such a great feature.

[@guanqiaowang7586]

They are illegal at night apparently

[@BoDean52]

Thanks for sharing this...I just got my hands on that helmet at the Cleveland Bike Show and decided to order. Is the dark shield still ok with regular or sunglasses?

[@DCyclemoto]

Bo Dean 52 I can wear eye glasses with it but always wear contacts when I ride. It’s does well in the sun, so no need for sunglasses with it, I think.

[@RHaidar-PJ]

Love your video. Made it so easy!

[@markwhatley9955]

I’m running a Pinlock with my Shoeii Neotech II and have fogging issues. It appears to be installed correctly. Thoughts and ideas?

[@DCyclemoto]

Did you clean the visor?

[@AManWhoNoticesThings]

I have the clear shield my Shoei came with and bought a chrome tinted one. Which one would it be better to put the pinlock on?

[@DCyclemoto]

Whichever one u will wear more often, especially in cold temps

[@votpavel]

I have a question,i always had the pinlock in my helmet and its good and all that but i notice its becomes slightly unclear compare to a visor without a pinlock,also the edges of the pinlock do get in my way when looking on the road sometimes.Is it possible to ride most hot summer without one or does it still fogs up the helmet?

[@DCyclemoto]

RE-L Mayer Should be ok to ride without it in summer. Cooler mornings might have fogging! This will be my first summer with it in, though.

[@votpavel]

@@DCyclemoto ahh ok,i just got a new helmet and didnt want to use brand new pinlock that came with it,if it works i will just use my old helmet in the winter to keep this one pinlock free

[@jayd6675]

Thanks for sharing! What is that attached to the left side of your helmet?

[@DCyclemoto]

Jay D There is a gopro mount and a Sena Bluetooth Comm system on the left side.

[@PigeonMan5000]

I cannot get the pinlock installed on my SHOEI RF-1400. I feel like I have to break the face shield in half just to get that fucker in there....

[@DCyclemoto]

It almost feels like u are going to break in during install. Any luck?

[@TheFluzx]

hey there, just installed my pinlock on my dark smoke visor. i have some kind of mirror effect though. i can see my own eyes. is this common? or did i do something wrong?

[@DCyclemoto]

You installed the correct way, right?

[@TheFluzx]

@@DCyclemoto yeah did it like the video. maybe i just need to get used to it a bit!

[@SurfnPics]

Your not supposed to install the Pinlock on a tinted visor

[@Gener1KGaming]

Great video. Do you mind if I ask which GoPro pieces you're using? I'm picking up a GT-Air 2 and have been considering strapping the GoPro in for some scenic rides but only have the most basic mounts.

[@DCyclemoto]

generiKGaming I am using the Hero 5 Session camera.

[@juicer404]

i just wrecked a helmet, can i use pinlock on my new shoei visor from old visor

[@DCyclemoto]

Good question. I would ask Shoei on that one.

[@roadwarrior8560]

of course you can ffs

how do you like that helmet?

out of stock everywhere. only fake ones on amazon. where to buy?

Try Revzilla or JP Cycles

[@Dennzio1]

easy peasy thanks...I'm too lazy to read instructions lol

[@DCyclemoto]

Me too especially when the English version is hard to find.

[@specialcircs]

First thing the instructions say is do not use with a tinted visor!

[@DCyclemoto]

I had no problems

LOL the Vader sound effect. Inb4 Disney copyright strikes your channel.

[@Jeff82556]

Now all we've gotta learn FIRST: how to remove the helmet shield and then learn how to reinstall the helmet shield - since you couldn't show us either - except for reinstalling at warp 9.9 speed. Guess what my next KZbin search will be .........

[@DCyclemoto]

Dude the helmet comes with a manual. Its too easy for a video, anyway.
