Visors That Fit Multiple Helmets: 9 Cross-Brand Picks

Most replacement visors fit one helmet and nothing else. But a small number of listings in the ClearLine catalogue are filed to fit several helmets at once, and a handful of those cross brand boundaries entirely. Visors that fit multiple helmets are the exception rather than the rule, and knowing which ones they are changes how you search.

We measured the whole catalogue on 4 September 2026 to find them. Of the 648 listings the store’s own product API returns, exactly 22 are filed under more than one helmet brand. Nine of those span three brands or more, and those nine are ranked below.

This matters for a practical reason. If you own an Arai RX-7X, a Shoei Z-8 or an HJC RPHA-11, the part that fits your helmet may be sitting on a listing whose title starts with a different marque’s name. Browsing your own brand page will not always find it.

The short answer

The single widest listing is the Motorcycle Universal Anti-Fog Insert, which is filed under 11 helmet brands. It is the broadest by brand count, but it is also the least model-specific: it carries no model-group categories at all and its first fitment option is simply “Universal”.

If you want breadth and model specificity, the more useful listing is the eight-brand anti-fog insert. It spans AGV, Arai, HJC, KYT, LS2, MT, Shark and Shoei, it names 29 distinct model groups, and it offers 12 selectable fitments.

Here is the criterion, stated plainly: these nine are ranked by the number of distinct helmet brands each listing is itself filed under, counted from the product’s own category list. Ties are broken by the number of model-specific groups, then by the number of fitment options you can actually select. Every number in the table is countable off the live site.

How we counted, and why the method matters

A product appearing on a brand’s category page does not prove it belongs to that brand. Brand archives also render cross-sell and related-product markup, so a URL can show up on a page it has no category relationship with. That trap has produced a false cross-brand claim before.

So membership here is taken strictly from each product’s own category list, read from the store’s public product API rather than scraped from an archive page. Brands are derived from the category slugs, which are prefixed by marque. A listing filed under agv-k6 and shoei-z-8 counts as spanning two brands whether or not it also carries the top-level brand categories.

That strictness cut both ways. Searching product names alone would have missed three of the nine below entirely, because their titles name only AGV while their categories span three, five and eight brands. It also removed two false positives.

The LS2 OF603 Infinity II visor looks cross-brand until you read its categories: “Infinity II” is an LS2 model name, not a separate marque. A Klim listing names the Marushin L9 in its title, but Marushin is not a brand category on this site, so it is not counted here. In both cases the title says more than the taxonomy does.

Visors that fit multiple helmets, ranked

Brands are the distinct marques each listing is filed under. Model groups are the model-specific categories it carries. Fitment options are the choices on the listing’s own dropdown, which is what you actually select when you buy.

One honest caveat before the entries. Ranking by brand count puts the universal insert first, but breadth and precision are not the same thing. Entry 2 spans fewer brands and is the more specific product, because it names 29 model groups where entry 1 names none.

1. Universal anti-fog insert: filed under 11 brands

This is the only listing in the catalogue filed under a double-digit number of marques. Its categories are AGV, Alpinestars, ILM, KYT, LS2, MT, Nolan, OGK, Ruroc, Shoei and X-Lite. No other listing comes close on that measure.

What it does not carry is a single model-group category. Every one of its 11 categories is a top-level brand page, which is why it ranks first on breadth and last on precision. The taxonomy is telling you it is a general-purpose part.

The fitment dropdown tells a more specific story than the categories do. Its 13 options include “Universal” but also “RPHA11 Pin”, “New K3 Pin”, “Ff320 Pin Suit”, “R2R”, “K6 K6S Pin Suit”, “Rx7X Pin Suit”, “K1 K5 K5S Pin Suit”, “X14 Z7 Nxr Pin Suit” and “R50S Pin Suit”. Those are named helmet fitments, not generic sizes.

Here is the part worth knowing. Two of those options name helmets from brands the listing is not filed under: “RPHA11 Pin” is an HJC fitment and “Rx7X Pin Suit” is an Arai one. Browse the HJC range or the Arai range and this listing does not appear.

So an RPHA-11 owner can reach this product from the AGV page, the Shoei page or the KYT page, but not from their own. If you ride one of those helmets, it is worth opening the listing directly and reading the dropdown rather than trusting the brand archive to surface it.

A pin-style insert seals against the inside of the visor and creates a double-glazed air gap, which is why it works at a standstill when airflow alone will not clear misting. It needs pins or a pin suit that matches your visor, which is exactly what those option names are describing. Our guide to fitting a pin-style anti-fog insert covers the mechanics.

2. The 8-brand anti-fog insert: fits AGV K1, Arai RX-7X, HJC C70 and more

This is the strongest listing in the set if you judge by useful coverage rather than raw brand count. It spans eight marques — AGV, Arai, HJC, KYT, LS2, MT, Shark and Shoei — and it names 29 distinct model groups while doing so.

Those 29 groups are not padding. They include AGV K1, K3 SV, K5, K6 and Pista; Arai Corsair-X, RX-7V, RX-7V EVO and RX-7X; HJC C70, i70, RPHA-11 and RPHA-70; KYT NF-R, NX, NXR and TT-Course; LS2 FF320 and FF353; MT Thunder 4 SV; Shark D-Skwal; and the Shoei Glamster, NXR2, RF-1400, X-14, X-Spirit III, Z-7 and Z-8.

The 12 fitment options are unusually legible, because each one names its target helmet: “For Shoei X14 303”, “For RPHA11 RPHA70”, “For Rx7X”, “For Hjc C70”, “For Hjc I70”, “For Ls2 Ff320 353”, “For K1 K3 SV K5”, “For Pista”, “For Shoei Z7 301”, “For Shark D Skwal”, “For Mt Thunder 4 Sv” and “For Glamster”. You are choosing a helmet, not a part number.

Note the asymmetry between 29 model groups and 12 options. The categories cast a wider net than the dropdown does, so the presence of your model in the category list is not by itself proof there is an option for it. Read the dropdown before you buy.

It is also the only listing in the set that reaches Shark owners at all. The D-Skwal appears in no other cross-brand listing in the catalogue, so for that helmet the Shark range has exactly one multi-brand route and this is it.

MT owners have two routes rather than one. This listing carries the Thunder 4 SV, and entry 4 below carries the MT V-14, so which one you need depends on your model rather than on the MT range as a whole.

3. The 6-brand insert with 20 model groups: AGV K6, Arai RX-7X, HJC C70

Six brands, 20 model groups, 12 selectable fitments. The marques are AGV, Arai, HJC, KYT, Scorpion and Shoei, which makes this the only listing in the top three to reach Scorpion owners.

The Scorpion reach is narrow but real: the categories name the EXO-T520 and the ST1400, and the dropdown carries a matching “For R1 T520 St1400” option. That is a genuine three-model fitment sitting on a listing whose title leads with AGV.

Its 12 options are “For Hjc Hj20M C70”, “For Kyt Ttc”, “For R1 T520 St1400”, “For Agv K6”, “For Z7 Cw-1 Cns-1”, “For Z8 Cwr-F2”, “For Agv Pista”, “For X14 Cwr-F Cwf-1”, “For Rx7X”, “For R50S”, “For Glamster” and “For Hj26 Rph11 Rph70”. Several name the visor moulding rather than the helmet, which is a useful signal.

Options like “Z7 Cw-1 Cns-1” and “X14 Cwr-F Cwf-1” reference the visor part families used on Shoei helmets. If you already know which visor your helmet takes, matching on that string is more reliable than matching on the helmet name, because one helmet can ship with more than one visor generation over its production life.

This entry and entry 6 are close relatives and easy to confuse. Both lead with AGV K6 and both cover Arai RX-7X and HJC C70. The difference is that this one adds AGV Pista, the KYT TTC and the two Scorpion models, and it carries 20 model groups against entry 6’s 15.

4. The 6-brand replacement visor: AGV K6, KYT R2R, MT V-14

This is the highest-ranked listing in the set that is an actual replacement visor rather than an insert. It is filed under six brands: AGV, KYT, MT, Nolan, Scorpion and Shoei.

It is also the clearest example of categories running ahead of what you can buy. The listing carries 10 model groups, including the Shoei GT-Air, NXR2, RF-1400 and Z-8, the Nolan X-803, the MT V-14 and the KYT TT. The dropdown offers four options: “K6”, “Exo-R420”, “R2R” and “803”.

So a Shoei RF-1400 owner will find this listing on the Shoei brand page and then find no RF-1400 option on it. The same applies to the MT V-14, which is named in the listing’s own title. That gap is the single most confusing thing we found in this sweep.

Read that as a caution about the whole set rather than about this product alone. The category list is a discovery aid; the dropdown is the fitment statement. Where the two disagree, the dropdown is the one you are buying from.

What it does cover it covers properly. The AGV K6, the KYT R2R, the Scorpion EXO-R420 and the Nolan X-803 each get their own selectable option, and for the Nolan X-803 this is one of only two multi-brand routes in the catalogue.

5. The 5-brand insert with 20 model groups: AGV K1, Arai RX-7X, HJC RPHA-11

Five brands — AGV, Arai, HJC, LS2 and Shoei — across 20 model groups, with the largest option list in the whole set at 14 selectable fitments.

Those 14 options are worth comparing against entry 1, because they are almost the same list. “Universal”, “RPHA11 Pin”, “New K3 Pin”, “Ff320 Pin Suit”, “R2R”, “K6 K6S Pin Suit”, “Rx7X Pin Suit”, “K1 K5 K5S Pin Suit”, “X14 Z7 Nxr Pin Suit”, “R50S Pin Suit”, “K1 K3 SV K5 K5S”, “X14 Z7 Cwr1 Nxr” and “R50S” all appear on both listings. This one adds a fourteenth, “Rx7X”.

In other words, entries 1 and 5 look like the same insert offered twice under different category assignments. One is filed under 11 brand pages and no model groups; the other under five brands and 20 model groups. Which one you find depends entirely on how you browse.

That is worth knowing before you order, because it means a null result on one of them does not mean the part does not exist. If the option you want is missing from one, check the other. The two listings between them carry every option either one has.

This listing names the LS2 FF320 as a model group and backs it with an “Ff320 Pin Suit” option. Entry 2 covers the FF320 as well, which makes it the one LS2 model group reachable from two separate listings in this ranking; the FF353 sits on entry 2 alone. For LS2 owners both are real cross-brand routes to a pin-style insert.

6. The 5-brand insert: AGV K6, Arai RX-7X, HJC C70, KYT TT-Course

Five brands, 15 model groups, 10 fitment options. The marques are AGV, Arai, HJC, KYT and Shoei, and unlike entry 3 there is no Scorpion coverage here.

This is the listing to reach for if you ride an HJC, because it is filed under the top-level HJC brand category as well as the HJ-20M, C70, RPHA-11 and RPHA-70 groups. Most cross-brand listings in this set reach HJC only through model groups, so this one actually appears when you browse the brand.

Its 10 options are “For Z8 Cwr-F2”, “For Glamster”, “For Z7 Cw-1 Cns-1”, “For R50S”, “For R1 T520 St1400”, “For Hj26 Rph11 Rph70”, “For Rx7X”, “For Kyt Ttc”, “For Agv K6” and “For Hjc Hj20M C70”. Note that a Scorpion-shaped option, “For R1 T520 St1400”, survives here even though no Scorpion category does.

That is the mirror image of entry 4’s problem. There, categories promised models the dropdown did not carry; here, the dropdown carries a fitment the categories do not advertise. Both are reasons to read the listing itself rather than infer from where you found it.

With 15 model groups against entry 5’s 20, this sits sixth on the tie-break rather than fifth. On coverage of Shoei’s current range — Glamster, NXR2, RF-1400, Z-7 and Z-8 — it is comparable to anything above it.

7. The 4-brand photochromic insert: AGV Corsa, Arai RX-7X, HJC RPHA-11

The first photochromic product in the ranking, and the only photochromic insert. Four brands, but 22 model groups, which is more than any listing except entry 2.

A photochromic insert differs from a photochromic visor in an important way: it darkens the inner layer rather than the shield itself, so you keep your existing visor. That also means the tint sits behind the visor, and its response depends on the ultraviolet light reaching it through the outer shield.

Its five options are “For X14 X-Spirit 3”, “For Pista Gp Corsa”, “For RPHA11”, “For Rx7X Neo” and “For Z7 Nxr Gt-Air”. Five options against 22 model groups is the widest gap in the set, so the caution from entry 4 applies here with force.

The Shoei coverage in the categories is broad — GT-Air, GT-Air II, Neotec, NXR2, RF-1400, X-14, X-Spirit III, Z-7 and Z-8 — but it is served by two options, “For X14 X-Spirit 3” and “For Z7 Nxr Gt-Air”. Check which of those matches your visor generation before ordering.

If you want a photochromic layer and your helmet is not covered here, the photochromic visor range is the place to look instead. A full photochromic visor replaces the shield and sidesteps the insert-compatibility question entirely.

8. The 3-brand photochromic visor: AGV K1, Arai RX-7X, Shoei GT-Air

Three brands — AGV, Arai and Shoei — but 21 model groups and seven options, which makes it deeper than its brand count suggests.

The Shoei coverage here is the widest of any listing in the set. The categories name the GT-Air, NXR, NXR2, RF-1200, RF-1400, X-14, X-15, X-Fifteen, X-Fourteen, X-Spirit III, X-SPR Pro, Z-7 and Z-8. That is 13 Shoei groups on one listing.

Its seven options are “Photochromic Z8 X15”, “Photochromic Gt Air”, “Photochromic Pista”, “Photochromic Nxr”, “Photochromic Rx7X”, “Photochromic X14” and “Photochromic K1 K3 SV”. Every option is explicitly photochromic, so there is no risk of picking a plain tint by accident.

Because this is a full visor rather than an insert, it is the cleanest option for a rider who wants one shield that adapts rather than a two-part system. It also avoids the pin-compatibility question that governs entries 1, 2, 5, 6 and 9.

What it will not do is darken behind a screen or in a car, because photochromic layers respond to ultraviolet light and most windscreens filter it. That behaviour is normal rather than a fault, and it is the most common reason riders think a photochromic visor has stopped working.

9. The 3-brand insert: AGV K1, Arai RX-7X, Shoei NXR

Three brands, 16 model groups and just three fitment options, which makes this the narrowest listing that still qualifies for the ranking.

Its options are “Rx7X”, “K1 K3 SV K5 K5S” and “X14 Z7 Cwr1 Nxr”. All three appear on entry 5’s longer list, so this listing is effectively a subset of one already above it.

It earns its place because the categories are genuinely cross-brand — AGV K1, K3 SV and K5; Arai Corsair-X, RX-7V, RX-7V EVO and RX-7X; and nine Shoei groups from the NXR through to the Z-8. A rider browsing the AGV range will meet it under the top-level brand category.

Its title is also the reason we checked it. It reads “AGV K1 / K3 SV / Arai RX-7X / Shoei NXR and more”, while entry 5’s reads “AGV K1 / K3 SV / Arai RX-7X / HJC RPHA-11 and more”. Two listings with near-identical titles, different brand spans and overlapping options are easy to mistake for one another.

If you are choosing between them, entry 5 is the safer default: it carries every option this one does, plus eleven more. This one is only preferable if it is the listing your helmet’s brand page actually surfaces.

The 13 listings that span exactly two brands

Below the nine ranked entries sit 13 more listings filed under exactly two marques. They did not make the ranking because two brands is the minimum that qualifies as cross-brand at all, but several are the only route to a part for a smaller marque.

Five of them pair LS2 with Sedici, covering the LS2 FF397, FF801, Vector and Citation alongside the Sedici Strada 2. Two pair GSB with Motorax on the G263, JET-3 and S30. One pairs Nolan with X-Lite on the X-803 and X-603, one pairs AXXIS with MT on the Draken S and Spartan, and one pairs HJC with KYT on the C70 and TT-Course.

The LS2 and Sedici cluster is the most useful of these, because the Sedici Strada 2 has very little dedicated coverage of its own. If you ride one, searching the LS2 range will find you more than searching for your own helmet’s name will.

We covered the smaller marques in more depth in our guide to visors for less common helmet brands, which ranks 13 of them by how much fitment coverage each actually has.

How to choose, and what to do first

Start from the dropdown, not the title and not the brand page. The single most reliable action across all 22 cross-brand listings is to open the listing and read its fitment options, because that is the only place where the catalogue commits to a specific helmet.

The reason is visible in the table above. Model-group counts and option counts diverge sharply — 29 groups against 12 options on entry 2, 22 against 5 on entry 7, and 10 against 4 on entry 4. A model can be in the categories and absent from the dropdown.

Second, check the other listing before you conclude a part does not exist. Entries 1 and 5 are near-duplicates with different category assignments, and entries 3 and 6 overlap heavily. A missing option on one is not evidence of a missing option on the catalogue.

Third, match on the visor moulding where you can. Options such as “X14 Z7 Cwr1 Nxr” and “Z7 Cw-1 Cns-1” name visor families rather than helmets, and that is more precise than a model name when a helmet has shipped with more than one visor over its life.

If none of that resolves it, the visor finder works from your helmet model rather than from a brand page, which sidesteps the signposting problem these nine listings all share. Our guide to working out what visor fits your helmet covers the identification steps in order.

One last practical point. A pin-style insert and a replacement visor solve overlapping problems, and inserts dominate this ranking because a single insert moulding suits more helmets than a single shield does. If your visor is scratched as well as fogging, replacing the shield is the better spend, and our note on whether visors are interchangeable between models explains why a shield is so much more model-specific than an insert.

What this page does not tell you

It does not tell you whether any of these products is road legal, and neither does the listing. In Great Britain the legal test is the marking on the individual eye protector, which means a British Standard 4110 grade carrying an approved certification mark, or an ECE 22.05 approval. BS 4110 is the visor standard, and it is a different thing from the helmet standards you may see quoted.

We do not verify markings on individual items, so nothing on this site is described as approved, certified or road legal. Under section 18(4) of the Road Traffic Act 1988 it is an offence for a seller to offer an eye protector for sale as authorised for use when it is not of a prescribed type, which is exactly why this page ranks on fitment and product type instead.

Separately, and regardless of marking: iridium, mirrored and dark-smoke finishes transmit too little light to be legal for road use in Great Britain, day as well as night. That is not softened by riding only in daylight. The offence is not endorsable, so it does not carry penalty points, but it is still an offence.

None of the nine listings above is an iridium or mirrored product, and the two photochromic entries are a different case again. The Highway Code’s guidance for motorcyclists notes that “scratched or poorly fitting eye protectors can limit your view when riding, particularly in bright sunshine and the hours of darkness”, which is the practical argument for replacing a hazed shield rather than living with it — see the Highway Code rules for motorcyclists.

Frequently asked questions

Does one visor really fit helmets from different brands?

Sometimes, and it is more common with inserts than with shields. Seven of the nine listings above are anti-fog inserts, because an insert seals to the inside of a visor and tolerates more variation in shell shape than a shield does. A replacement visor has to match the base-plate mechanism and the aperture exactly, which is why only two of the nine are visors.

Why do the categories and the fitment options disagree?

Because they are doing different jobs. Categories are a discovery aid that puts a listing in front of riders who might need it, while the fitment dropdown is the specific commitment about what will physically fit. On entry 4 that gap is 10 model groups against 4 options, and on entry 7 it is 22 against 5.

How do I check a cross-brand listing fits my helmet?

Open the listing and read the fitment dropdown for your helmet or your visor family by name. If your model appears in the category list but not in the dropdown, treat it as not covered by that listing and check the related one. Matching on the visor part family, where the option names one, is more reliable than matching on the helmet model.

Are these visors and inserts road legal in the UK?

We cannot tell you that, because the legal test is the marking on the individual item and we do not verify markings per item. What we can say is that iridium, mirrored and dark-smoke finishes are not legal for road use in Great Britain at any time of day. Clear and lightly tinted products are a different case, but the marking on the item is still what decides it.

What if my helmet is not on any of these listings?

Most helmets are not, and that is expected — only 22 of 648 listings are cross-brand at all. Search your helmet’s own brand category first, then the clear visor range, and use the visor finder if the model name alone is not getting you there.

Where to start

If you ride an AGV, an Arai, an HJC or a Shoei flagship, the nine listings above are worth reading before you search anywhere else, because a part that fits your helmet is very likely sitting under another marque’s name. If you ride a Shark D-Skwal, an MT Thunder 4 SV or a Scorpion EXO-T520, entries 2, 3 and 4 are the only cross-brand routes the catalogue has for you.

Everything above was counted from the live catalogue on 4 September 2026 and can be checked in a click each. Shipping is free on every order.

Start with the visor finder if you know your helmet model, or browse the clear visor range if you are replacing a hazed shield.
