2. Cleaning the Visor

The visor should be cleaned with a soft cloth and lukewarm water. For stubborn dirt, use a specialized helmet visor cleaner.

• Formation de buée sur la visière : If your visor fogs up, ensure the ventilation system is open. Consider installing a Pinlock® 70 MaxVision™ insert for enhanced anti-fog performance.
• Le casque me serre trop : LS2 helmets are designed for a snug fit. However, if it causes discomfort or pressure points, verify your head circumference against the size chart. Some users find it beneficial to choose one size larger than their measured circumference for optimal comfort.
• Bruit excessif : Ensure the visor is fully closed and properly seated. Check that all removable components of the lining are correctly installed.
• Inconfort lié à la mentonnière : Readjust the micrometric buckle to ensure it is not too tight or too loose. The strap should be snug but not constricting.
