      @@Konnersaki There are a fair few but certainly not as many as US. Our population is significantly smaller than the US and the weather in most places is unpredictable and doesn't make riding particularly appealing to most people. That being said, there is a substantial riding community across the country.

    Pin locks are an absolute must for riding IMO. Don’t know how many times I got caught out in a storm / riding in cold / foggy weather etc and never have to worry about not being able to see.
    My spare helmet without one fogs up very badly in many situations that you’d never expect.

  • @thagingerninjer5391

    If the pin lock isn’t sealed all the way around, it will fog, still. You have to adjust the screws on the pins to get it to seal properly.

    No. The first thing you do is, get an Uber to the mall, even if you have a car or bike, take an Uber. Then go to a clothing store in the mall and pay an employee to bring you a full outfit, underwear socks and shoes included. Even a new hat if you wear one. Then you want to go to the washroom and get completely naked and throw your clothes in the garbage. Then go to a DIFFERENT STALL and text the employee to bring you the clothes you bought. You then get dressed and go outside to install the pinlock. But even after taking all these steps, there will still be a fucking dog hair between the pinlock and visor.

    You could just rub soap on the inside then polish it off. Zero fogging for most of a winter then repeat.

    not sure if this is a rumor or not but I was always told to carefully wipe the pinlock in only One direction, which is down, down, down. when I wiped it left to right and right to left on my old visor it felt more.. milky and fogged up, but I really just can't tell if that was from the visor or from the wiping technique.

    • @thagingerninjer5391
      @thagingerninjer5391 ปีที่แล้ว

      No. Clean the visor and pin lock really well, then reinstall. Once it’s installed, turn the adjusting screws on each side until you get a good seal along the entire visor. You can tell if the pin lock seal isn’t touching the visor by pushing down a little all along the seam. You’ll know when you hit a spot that isn’t touching. That seal not being made is what is causing the pin lock to fog between it and the visor. They work by trapping air in between, and using it as insulation.

    • @MRworldEtIkA
      @MRworldEtIkA ปีที่แล้ว

      Once my pinlock was that old, it was not sealed properly and always fell down. I bought a new one with a fresh seal, and it is worth it (it's not that expensive here).
      Edit: I think I didn't answer your question. Everything can be fogged up with your breath; it's just that pinlock didn't fog up that easily in cold temperatures like snow or rain. I believe the pinlock has some hydrophobic coating on both sides, so maybe you didn't clean your visor correctly and left the pinlock with bare plastic. In that case, you should replace your pinlock.

      It’s a secondary visor that clips into pinlock ready visors. It creates airspace between it and the visor, insulating it, so it doesn’t fog. It’s the same thing insulated glass in your house windows does.
