Pinlock

[Drawweight]

My visor on my Neotec 2 mists up like crazy even with a Pinlock.

It’s done this since new so I’m assuming I didn’t seal the Pinlock properly.

Can you remove it and replace it. If so how?

You manhandle it out of there and try not to snap anything. It's a pain but I've done it without causing damage.

If there is a proper way of doing it, I've not come accross it.

Turn the pins either side and you should be able to release it. Take it out and reset it between the pins again. The pins can also be used to make it fit flush/tighter to the visor (they are asymmetrical so by turning them it tightens the pin lock).

Personally I gave up using pin locks as I got sick of faffing with them. After a while they always stopped working, and as I started wearing glasses found I didn't like having another aperture to look through. I don't find fogging an issue generally, but I am a fair weather rider.

I find replacing pinlocks quite straight forward. I take the visor off the helmet then place it on a non scratch surface (towel on a kitchen unit) with the front of the visor down. I then slightly flex the visor apart to remover the old pinlock and fit the new one.

Yeah, should have mentioned.....take the visor off!

You could just try installing the same one again, it's just a rubber strip that acts as the seal not a permanent attachment.

As others said, take the visor off, flex it flatter and the pinlock should pop off pretty easily.

Give the visor and the pinlock rubber a good clean and reattach it and see how that goes.

I have two helmets Pinlock is perfect on one. The other it isn’t fit as well and does mist up. Maybe in winter I’ll fix it..
