FAQs
What helmets is the HJC HJ-42 visor compatible with?
This visor is specifically designed for the HJC RPHA 12 helmet model.
Is the gold tint legal for road use?
The legality of tinted visors varies by region. Only transparent and lightly tinted lenses are generally suitable for road traffic. Please check your local regulations.
Does this visor come with a Pinlock insert?
No, this visor is Pinlock Ready, meaning it has the necessary posts to attach a Pinlock anti-fog insert, but the insert must be purchased separately.
How do I clean the visor?
Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap if needed. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh chemicals. Rinse and dry thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth.
Can I replace the visor myself?
Yes, the HJC HJ-42 visor is designed for quick and easy tool-free replacement.
What does 'Pinlock Ready' mean?
'Pinlock Ready' means the visor has small pins on the inside surface that allow you to securely attach a Pinlock anti-fog insert, greatly improving resistance to fogging.
What is the UV protection level?
The visor provides 99% protection against harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays.
Troubleshooting
Visor is difficult to remove or install.
Ensure you are aligning the visor correctly with the pivot points and have fully released the locking tabs. Check your RPHA 12 helmet manual for specific instructions.
Pinlock insert not sealing correctly.
Verify the Pinlock insert is the correct model for the HJ-42 visor and that it is seated flush against the visor's internal pins. Ensure the rubber gasket on the Pinlock is clean and undamaged.
Visibility is reduced due to fogging.
Confirm that a Pinlock anti-fog insert is installed correctly. If not, consider purchasing one, as the visor is Pinlock ready.
Visor scratches easily.
While the visor has an anti-scratch coating, avoid abrasive cleaning methods. Use only soft cloths and mild cleaners. Be mindful of potential impacts during use.
