Choosing it properly is essential to ensure peace of mind during your best rides or your fabulous off-road adventures. First of all, also make sure to choose the right helmet sizeto fully enjoy your visor and optimal comfort. It cannot be said enough: riding well on a motorcycle means seeing well. This is why choosing the visor – or motorcycle helmet visor– is important.

Which visor for which motorcycle helmet?
Whatever the weather conditions, there is always a visor for every situation. The ideal solution is to choose protective equipment according to your needs, your desires and your budget. Whatever the material of your helmet, whether it is polycarbonate or carbon fiber, it is essential to choose a visor compatible with your model.
A helmet's life is not always easy! And the first element to suffer the consequences is its visor. This is why, at icasque.com, we make the best visors and screens available to you to ensure comfort, protection and visibility. Whatever the helmet model, know that the visor supplied is designed in clear polycarbonate, that is to say, colorless. Depending on your needs, it is entirely possible to customize it, notably with tinted, smoked or iridium visors(dedicated to track riding). Many models are also compatible with several helmet references to offer a simple and reliable replacement.
Available as an option, the light, dark or tinted smoked visor is highly recommended when the brightness becomes excessive. Ideal to protect yourself from the sun or to give a sportier look to the helmet! Note that the motorcycle helmet smoked visor is not approved beyond a tint level of 50%. Some will therefore prefer a sun visor, practical and easy to remove. Some models are also adapted to helmets equipped with a peak to meet the needs of every rider.
Revolutionary new product: the Akari brand, available on iCasque, has developed universal photochromic visorsallowing, with the help of a battery, the transition from light to darkness in less than 1/10th of a second. The visor is therefore colorless at night, and tinted under the sun. Ultra practical!
Why choose an anti-scratch visor?
Choosing an anti-scratch visor for your motorcycle helmet means opting for effective and high-performance protective equipment. The anti-scratch treatment on the polycarbonate of the visor gives it a considerable lifespan.
On icasque.com, access a wide selection of motorcycle helmets with anti-scratch visorsto enjoy equipment of optimal quality. Depending on the models, the polycarbonate is sometimes treated to harden the surface and thus, gain resistance. An ideal asset to fight against various impacts and micro-scratches!
Which Pinlock for a motorcycle helmet?
To gain comfort and visibility, think about the Pinlock helmet. Most often integrated on the visor, the Pinlock is an anti-fog film playing the role of double glazing to absorb ambient moisture. An essential accessory to limit condensation on your helmet visor. The lifespan of a Pinlock is estimated at two years maximum.
Most motorcycle helmets in stock on icasque.com have an integrated Pinlock. In case of film replacement, remember to choose a model adapted to your helmet type. One Pinlock for every helmet Pinlock!
Motorcycle visor and approval, what do you need to know?
Even if helmets are often presented with tinted or iridescent visors, they are always delivered with a colorless visor that ensures their European approval. You should therefore not rely on the photos you will see on the various sites, magazines or the models presented at the shows.
They are available in many shades, the main ones being:
- Colorless upon receipt of the helmet
- Light smoked, either slightly tinted to still have visibility at night
- Dark smoked or blackto block the sun and give you a more stylish look
- The iridiums(silver, gold, blue, red, purple, green) with a smoked interior view and a mirror effect on the outside
- Yellow visorfor better visibility at night
Depending on the models, it will be possible to buy these tinted visors as an option to harmonize the look of your helmet. Tolerated to date, they are not approved. It is therefore advisable to use them properly. Whether you own a sport helmet, a vintage modelor a helmet intended for motocross and off-road, iCasque offers you visors compatible with the biggest brands to easily replace your original visor.
