Full details

The Bell Short Sunshade Visor in Black is designed for adult users of Bell HP6 and GT6 series helmets, offering essential glare protection in closed-cockpit racing environments where a full visor is not required. Its key benefit is providing a clearer field of vision by reducing sun glare without obstructing the driver's view. A caveat is that it is specifically designed for select Bell helmet models and offers only partial eye protection.

FAQs

What helmets is the Bell Short Sunshade Visor compatible with?

It is compatible with the Bell HP6 Carbon, HP6 RD Carbon, HP6 Rally Carbon, GT6 Carbon, GT6 RD Carbon, GT6 Rally Carbon, and GT6 Pro helmets.

Does this visor offer full eye protection?

No, this is a sunshade visor designed for glare reduction in specific conditions. It offers partial eye protection and is not a replacement for a full visor against impacts or debris.

How do I clean the anti-fog coating?

Clean gently with a soft microfiber cloth and only water or a mild, approved visor cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that can damage the coating.

Can I use this visor at night?

This visor has a dark smoke tint and is primarily designed for reducing glare in bright daylight. It is not recommended for use in low-light or night conditions as it will significantly reduce visibility.

Is installation difficult?

No, installation is straightforward as it is designed to directly replace the standard visor on compatible Bell helmets. Refer to your helmet's manual for specific visor removal and installation instructions.

What is the benefit of a short sunshade visor over a full visor?

A short sunshade visor offers reduced weight and can provide a less obstructive view in specific applications like closed-cockpit racing where glare reduction is the primary concern and full face coverage is not essential.

Troubleshooting

Visor fogs up despite anti-fog properties

Ensure the visor is clean and free from oils or residues. Re-check helmet ventilation and airflow; sometimes, increased airflow can help dissipate moisture. The anti-fog treatment may degrade over time with extensive use and cleaning.

Visor does not securely attach to the helmet

Verify that you have a compatible Bell helmet model. Ensure no debris is obstructing the pivot points on both the helmet and the visor. Double-check that the original visor was removed completely before attempting installation.

Reduced visibility in low-light conditions

This visor is intended for use in bright light conditions to reduce glare. For low-light or night racing, a clear or lightly tinted visor is recommended. Consider swapping back to a standard visor when light conditions are poor.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This sunshade visor is designed to directly replace the standard visor on compatible Bell helmets. To install, carefully detach the original visor according to your helmet's manual. Then, align the short sunshade visor with the visor pivot points on the helmet and secure it. Ensure it clicks firmly into place.

Care:

  • Gently wipe the visor to remove dirt, dust, or smudges.
  • Store the helmet with the visor in the open position or use a helmet bag to protect the visor surface when not in use.
