FAQs

Is this helmet suitable for track days?

The HJC F31 is an open-face helmet and is ECE 22/06 certified for road use. For track days, a full-face helmet with higher levels of protection is generally recommended or required by most circuits.

How do I clean the helmet's interior?

The interior liners are removable. You can hand wash them with mild soap and cool water. Allow them to air dry completely before putting them back in the helmet.

Does the helmet come with a Pinlock insert?

The HJ-43 visor is Pinlock ready, meaning it has the pins to attach a Pinlock insert. However, the Pinlock insert itself is typically sold separately.

What is the weight of the HJC F31 helmet?

The helmet weighs approximately 1450g (+/- 50g), making it a lightweight option for riders.

Can I replace the visor if it gets scratched?

Yes, replacement visors for the HJ-43 are available. Please refer to HJC's official parts list or an authorized dealer for compatible replacements.

What does ECE 22/06 certification mean?

ECE 22/06 is the latest European safety standard for motorcycle helmets, indicating rigorous testing for impact absorption, penetration resistance, and structural integrity, ensuring a high level of safety.

How do I adjust the sun shield?

The helmet features a dynamic multi-step sun shield mechanism. This allows riders to adjust the sun shield's position effortlessly, often with a single-handed control, to suit changing light conditions.

Troubleshooting

Helmet feels too tight or loose.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If slightly too tight, the liners may break in over time. If too loose, consider trying a different size or adding thicker cheek pads if available for your model.

Visor fogs up excessively.

Ensure the visor is properly closed and sealed. For persistent fogging, install a Pinlock insert (sold separately) into the prepared visor.

Ventilation seems inadequate.

Check that all ventilation ports are open and not blocked by debris. Ensure the interior liners are properly seated, as they can affect airflow.

Sun shield is difficult to adjust.

Ensure the mechanism is clean and free of debris. Operate the shield smoothly, avoiding force. If it remains stiff, consult the manual or contact customer support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup:

  1. Ensure the helmet is the correct size for a snug, comfortable fit. The interior padding should feel firm but not painful.
  2. Familiarize yourself with the operation of the dynamic multi-step sun shield mechanism and the visor ratchet.

Compatibility:

  • Visor: The HJ-43 visor is Pinlock ready. A Pinlock insert (sold separately) can be fitted to prevent fogging.
  • Helmet Shell: The advanced fibreglass composite shell is designed for optimal aerodynamic performance.

Care and Maintenance:

  • Interior Liners: The moisture-wicking interior liners are removable and washable. Hand wash with mild soap and cool water, then allow to air dry completely before reinserting. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  • Shell Exterior: Clean the helmet shell with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh solvents or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the finish.
  • Visor: Clean the visor with a soft cloth and a mild cleaning solution suitable for plastics. Ensure the visor and its seals are free of grit before operating.
  • Storage: Store the helmet in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to preserve its materials. Use the provided helmet bag if available.
