Shoei XR1000 fogging

[roogazza]

The X spirit Shoei (next one up from XR1000) comes std with chin skirt etc. I find the vents are enough to clear visor on those early morning rides. A great hat and so well developed over earlier models. gaz.

I have a Shoei Raid II. I am planning on getting a pinlock clear visor, and a pinlock dark-tinted visor. Then I was hoping it was possible to buy one clear pinlock insert to swap between the two visors. Is this doable, or is the pinlock system more of a put the insert in, and then you shouldn't really remove it again?

Good choice mate. I haven't tried removing my pinlock insert. It's a silicone bead that seals it so I guess it would be alright.
That being said, I'd personally go for an insert for each visor. You could damage the bead if you move it around too much.

I read something about giving some dirty old shampoo a go, and bugger me it hasn't fogged since, and that was at the start of October. I can sit at the lights in the rain breathing normally and zero fog. It's starting to wear off now but a quick reapply won't take long.

I just smeared it all over, got really messy and left a cloudy film. I waited for that to dry a bit then polished it off with a soft cloth. Works a treat.
