Great review. Underrated video
Thank you!!! This is extremely helpful, I was going to go for the pricey transition one, but it looks like the gold one better fits what I want

Very good review and information. Thanx amigo.
Very useful thanks would have been great to have seen them on the helmet a bit longer.
Excellent, excellent review. Thank you! I have a dark smoke shield which I have been perfectly happy with on my old rf-1200. Just picked up a rf-1400 and need to make a choice on a darker shield. Been looking at the transition or the trusty dark smoke. Never would have thought there would be such a difference ‘looking through’ the shields.

Thanks a lot, doing everyone a big service that the manufacturer should have had photos and videos for. Hope you enjoy all the visors or can re sell them to friends or something

Matte black helmets pair best with dark smoke visor imo. The glossy black helmets are more versatile with different coloured visors. Again.. That's my opinion.. 😁Nice video btw!
Thank you bro !🙏🏾
You the one😊
Great video man! I have a question, do you know the difference between spectra gold and hi def Yellow?
good tips bro
I usual change at night for clear then daytime is darker because it does the better job for me. I never complain for changing daily because I clean it more often.
Im a longtime daily rider and always use gold spectra visors.... They work great daylight of course, yet are still usable during darkness. Ive never had the need to swap to a different visor during darkness.

Is the transition shield worth it as a single all-day use visor? I saw that it doesn't get as dark as the dark smoke, but can you make due with it instead of carrying 2 visors with you?

In my opinion, yes. I exclusively just use the transitions visor because it's good enough. On colder days I think it actually gets a little darker than the video demonstrates.

I LOVE the transitions visor on my Bell helmet. Works for every light situation, will always look for a transition visor on any helmet I get.

I use transition all day every day. Haven’t tried the other ones but it adjusts darkness as needed depending on the sunlight. Honestly only time you have issue is riding directly into the sunlight when it’s sunset, but I’m sure you will have issue with all of them regardless on that.
Hey man, what pinlock did you use?
I have been trying to tell if the photochromatic at its darkest gets as dark as the dark smoke. What do you think?

It's slightly less dark, so there's a trade off but it's only a little. The tint also varies depending on how much UV there is on a day so it's darker on some days than others. In practice though I find it good enough.
I have a blackout theme going for the bike, black gear, black bike, painted black windshield etc. would I be better off with a dark smoke for my gloss black shoei rf1400 or should I go with a transition?

Dark smoke would visually look best, if you want practicality and will ride at night then transitions.

I rock a silver mirror and in the dark it looks like a dark mirror
You got a good ASMR voice.
I bought a gold visor and was pissed when it wasn’t as advertised, which was solid gold and not transparent, but now I’m happy because I don’t have to carry another visor and swap them for night time riding 😊

Thank you for this video! What are your thoughts about which is the darkest model? Gold seems darkest? I have the dark smoke but it is not dark enough. On my previous AGV mirror it was very dark. Perfect for summer sun. The Shoei dark smoke is just to light in the summer time so I need something even darker.

How do the silver and gold perform in the night? Can you see with and without street lamps?

It's slightly more visible than the dark smoke but I would advise against using it in the dark and carry a clear visor. It's probably just about bearable with street lamps around.

I love my silver visor, but I can't use it at night.
Nice! It's a pity there are no polarised options though. I use polarised sunglasses in the car, but they tend to fog, and adjusting them in/out of the tunnels is impossible in the full face helmet :/

I think polarised lenses distort digital dashboards which is why bike manufacturers don't do it
I'm thinking on the gold one. What is your favourite?

It was from various UK sellers for the best price I recommend using a price comparison for the best deal. They were all genuine Shoei and came with sealed packaging.
Do you think the chrome can do well at night?

Most likely dark smoke, the iridium ones are not as dark and you can kinda see through them more but if the sun is bright it might make things harder to see through but dark is probably your best bet.

I have the silver mirrored visor but I like the Blue mirrored best.
