Troubleshooting
Helmet feels too tight or too loose
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Consult the sizing chart and try different sizes if available. The fit should be snug but not painful, with no excessive movement.
Visor fogs up despite Pinlock
Ensure the Pinlock insert is correctly seated against the main visor. Check that there are no gaps allowing air to bypass the seal. Clean both the visor and the Pinlock lens.
Ventilation seems poor
Make sure all ventilation ports are open and not blocked by debris or the liner. Ensure the interior liner is correctly positioned to allow airflow.
Chin strap is difficult to fasten
Practice using the DD-ring system; it requires a specific technique to tighten securely. Ensure the straps are not twisted.
