Description
A photochromic visor darkens in bright sun and goes clear again as the light drops, so one visor covers the whole day — including the ride home. This one is cut for your Shoei.
Which helmets does this fit?
This photochromic visor is matched to these models:
The helmet model name is printed inside the chin bar, under the lining or on the strap label. If yours isn’t listed, check the visor finder — visors are model-specific and a part from a neighbouring model usually won’t clip in.
Which tint should I choose?
- Blue Photochromic, Red Photochromic, Black Photochromic — Darkens as the sun comes out and goes clear again as the light drops. One visor for a whole day, including the ride home.
Every tint listed here is made for this exact visor aperture, so whichever you pick it clips into the same fitting.
How do I fit it?
Open the visor fully, release the side mechanism on each side, lift the old visor away and clip the new one in until it clicks. It takes a couple of minutes and needs no tools. Peel the protective film off both sides before your first ride.
Is this legal on the road?
What decides it is the approval marking on the individual visor — a BS 4110 grade with an approved certification mark, or an ECE 22.05 approval — not the tint name. These are unbranded aftermarket visors and we cannot confirm the marking on any individual item, so we do not offer them as authorised for road use. Check the marking on the visor you receive. Dark smoke, mirrored and iridium finishes transmit too little light to be road legal where the Eye Protectors Regulations apply, and are a bad idea at night whatever the local rule says — treat them as off-road, track and closed-course daytime choices. This is general guidance, not legal advice — check what applies where you ride.

Quality is good! The weather was cloudy so I could not check the colour-changing function properly, but the basic quality is good.
I have not tried it against a genuine one so I cannot tell, but it fits well with the shield I bought together with it.
perfect fit. nice finishing . photochromic works. clipping in when locking the visor needs a bit more force. recommend
Works properly and the size fits perfectly.
Fits my z8 with no play at all. Since it changes colour, it should be visible well even at night.
