FAQs
What helmets is this Pinlock dark lens compatible with?
This HJC Pinlock 70 MaxVision Dark Lens XD-16 is specifically designed for the HJC XD-16 visor and is compatible with HJC C80 helmets.
Can I use this Pinlock in the dark or at night?
It is not recommended. The dark tint is intended for bright, sunny conditions to reduce glare. For night riding or low-light conditions, a clear Pinlock insert or removing the dark lens is advised.
How do I clean the Pinlock lens?
Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could scratch or damage the lens.
Will this Pinlock insert prevent my visor from fogging?
Yes, when properly installed on a Pinlock-ready visor, the Pinlock system creates an airtight seal that provides excellent fog resistance.
Does this Pinlock offer UV protection?
While the dark tint helps reduce light intensity, the primary function is glare reduction. Specific UV protection levels would need to be confirmed by the manufacturer's specifications.
Is installation difficult?
No, installation is designed to be straightforward. It involves aligning the lens with the pins on the compatible visor and securing it.
Troubleshooting
Pinlock insert is not sealing properly
Ensure the Pinlock retaining pins on the helmet visor are securely in place and that the Pinlock insert is fully seated. Check for any debris trapped between the Pinlock and the visor.
Visor is still fogging up
Verify that the Pinlock insert's silicone edge is making full contact with the visor. Re-seat the insert or check if the silicone seal is damaged. Ensure the Pinlock is installed correctly on a compatible, Pinlock-ready visor.
Reduced visibility in low light
The dark tint is designed for bright conditions. For low-light or night riding, consider switching to a clear Pinlock insert or removing the dark Pinlock lens.
