Review on πŸ”’ Enhance Your Safety with Shoei Shield and Pinlock Pins CWR-1 - Clear - for RF-1200 Street Bike Racing Motorcycle Helmet by Nathan Jankowski

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good design, scratches too easily

I like their function on my RF-1200 helmet. I don't like pinlock inserts. I've tried them, including this one, and always snap after a few days of nasty extra reflections at night or dusk. So this function is useless for me. The visor fits well on the helmet (the windshield is adjustable on the RF-1200) and the "fog" or open position works great behind my fairing. The Shoei quick change system is fairly easy to install or remove, much easier than the Arai system for example. Why not five stars? They are a bit more expensive and I find the plastic scratches too easily. I try to keep them safe but the handling of scratches still adds up, more than I remember with some other brands. Plexus does an excellent job of cleaning, as it does with every plastic surface I've ever tried Plexus on.

Pros
  • Nice looks
Cons
  • Some flaws
