Thanks for making this video. Helped me out! Ride safely!

The oil serves a second purpose. It allows you to check or adjust the sealing of the faceshield against the gasket seal. When adjusting the base plates for the visor, silicon oil is smeared thinly around the gasket. Install the faceshield. Lightly close the shield fully. The oil should come in contact evenly with the shield all the way around the gasket. If it does not, then you adjust the base plates until you achieve an even contact of the oil between the seal and shield. Clean off the oil and retry and adjust again, if needed, to get even pressure around the edge. You will turn the adjusters until smear is even around visor edge. This gives you a perfect seal and stops any whistling.

But shouldn’t that be done at the factory?

Is that something that can be done at anytime? It doesn't have to be when the helmet is brand new. Thank you.

Brilliant tutorial......thank you for sharing 👍

Great video! Thanks!

Very helpful thanks

My GT Air 2 visor is absolute murder to remove. Thanks for the tutorial.

Nice work

Why on the Shoei Glamster does it say to only put the oil around top and sides but not the bottom??

This rubber gasket has a crack on my helmet, water goes trough sometimes... It's glued ut I wonder if I can replace the seal

It was actually filmed and directed by me excellent comparison though.

You must have a very different guide than mine. The manual that came with my helmet says to lubricate the moving mechanical parts of the helmet, not the gasket.

Mike Q if you pause at 00:11 the guide shows an image and explains the procedure

Is it necessary to reapply the silicone oils after a while? Say once per 3-6 months?

stanislausxx its what they recommend but no i haven't

Thumbs up!

My visor gasket ripped next to where there is a small tab to open the viser, is there any way to replace it? Hurts to throw away my x-twelve because of a ripped gasket, a lot of air is coming through that opening and its really annoying. :(

From what I hear they don't sell the visor gasket separately. Try a local parts dealer and see if there is a way to ask shoei direct?

I have a GT Air and getting the visor back on is a pain in the ass. Lol!

It's pure silicone oil? What does it's label read I'm asking because I'm considering buying silicone oil for my vehicle maintenance. Just to protect rubber and plastic Let me know

On the label in the video it reads silicon oil. Doesn't give more information then that

Awesome, I used my finger o_0

So in other words doing this will prevent wind noise? And I correct?

It's more to stop the seal cracking. That's what the guide says anyway

I think you need to practice adjusting, removing and fitting a visor before you worry about silicone
