I have just purchased a Shoei GT Air and found that the only way to close the visor fully is to pull it down from the very edge at the top. Opening it again nearly pulls your head off. (slight exaggeration ). Could anyone tell me if this is normal or if the visor can be adjusted at all. Thanks
Don't have any problems with mine either. Suggest you take it back to where you bought it, or your local helmet shop. Wessa
You should have got a manual with the helmet. Have a look at the link it may help with adjustments to the visor. https://www.shoei-europe.com/uk/service/manuals
I've heard a few folk complaining about how stiff the visor is to open,i must admit mine is not the easiest to open either but you get used to it
I had the similar issue with my GT-Air and the pinlock would not work. Kept misting up and it was a pain. Now I have installed a Invision Hyper shield and seems to do the job nicely. As for the tight visor operation, I did as per Tiglet's video..... I loosened both base plate and adjusted it. Now it seems to lock in and out ok.
ok, visor too tight solved. now for the pinlock inner visor. pinlock pins, the ones on either side that you slide the slots of the pinlock onto. they ae eccentric. Rotate them so that the silicone bead is a tight fit to the outer visor providing an airtight seal.
My visor now working as is should do. I took it back to the shop and they adjusted the backing plates. Now to sort my glasses steaming up
