Check out the Full Review of the Shoei RF 1400 ua-cam.com/video/B0EoZ3rjNTk/v-deo.html
I live in Destin, FL and work in Valparaiso, FL. Fog in the spring and early summer days is the norm due to the high humidity here. I'll probably get the yellow fog visor as well just because of this reality for where I live.
Hah ! Great to hear the use case . Makes sense just be aware it’s hard to use that visor when it’s bright . Hope it works out !
The dark smoke is great, especially with late afternoon sun. I wanted the transition lens, but they don't react quick enough to work on my sunrise amd sunset rides.
Totally agree!
I was thinking about getting that transition lens. Glad I found your comment!
Dark smoke is nice in clear sunny days, but it's a disaster in twilight/night
I speak from experience
@@Nightdare well its absolutely not supposed to be worn at night, so thats pretty obvious
@@qfina
Yeah, but there is hardly any option to take 2 visors with you
Great video!
Thanks!
Great overview man. Is access to the Japan website restricted to members only?
Nope it's open to everyone - you can find it here : www.shoei.com/products/
Seems like they do not have stock right now.
I checked the other day the shoei america website and they had some in store .maybe you get lucky there 🍀
Just bought the helmet in Gray today but the smoked visor is back ordered.
Try Sportbike Track gear or Amazon if revzilla is out of stock.
Dude please do a ideo of removing the visor. I'm having such a hard time. It was so much easier on the 1200
I did it's in the RF 1400 review I did about it.
Thank you so much. It was so hard to find some clear videos on these visors.
Yes my thought exactly that's why I made this one. Really hard to understand how they look from the different pictures available. Glad it was helpful!
Been trying to buy the chrome/silver mirrored but it seems like all their visors for this helmet are out of stock or really hard to get. I'm having a hard time finding it :(. Great video though, thanks for showing and explaining all the combinations!
True, there seem to be some serious supply issues with these. Sometimes some of the smaller dealers have some in stock .
@@MonoMoto Good idea yeah I might call up some of the dealerships. None of the cycle gears have them, which is the only motorcycle store I know of around me.
The dark smoke is freaking impossible to find. The lack of the availability of these visors is super frustrating. all the visors are sold out on the japanese website as well... this helmet has been out for quite a while, don't see why they can't produce visors. Is there an aftermarket option?
Welcome to our funny Covid world where all sorts of weird things are out of stock. It is strange, but yeah aftermarket is a good idea. After some time they can pop up on Amazon or Ebay. Unfortunately I don't know any quality 3rd party brand I could recommend. Some after market visors are straight up dangerous if they have no UV protection or are not shatterproof.
@@MonoMoto super frustrating
@@user-bm3ts2ql6s Totally agreed. Hey at least it's better than the Playstation 5 that is out for almost one year and still people can't get one ;)
@@MonoMoto i have one of those though ;)
@@MonoMoto well i just found a dark smoke in Sierra BMW in Nevada i believe. Placed order. Hopefully ill have it soon.
Got my preorder for dark smoke from Revzilla. They say shipping late April/early May. Really digging my 1400.
Thanks for the update. Ride safe
Same, really enjoy the helmet and the visor really was the last missing piece . Enjoy the ride .
go to sport bike track gear. they've got plenty
I was waiting for my dark smoke for a long time. Bought the helmet in January and after looking everywhere for a dark smoke shield wo success, I eneded up pre ordering one from revzilla. Sure enough I didn't get anything in April as initially stated, nor in 1st half of May, so I finally canceled the order and bought one from Amazon since it was available. I enjoy it a lot, now waiting for the iridium/fire one that you showed last to become available here in the US. Great video Armin!
Also, is it just me or the RF1400 seems to have more noise inside than for example my X11? I didn't own a RF1200 so I can't compare, but to me it seems like that. Prob bc of the better air flow, but I hear more wind noise even with the vents closed
@@nautilus1753 I got mine from STG about two weeks ago.
I wear foam earplugs plus the chin curtain and it is pretty quiet. I ride a 18' Street Triple RS so the helmet is in clean air. I suppose the noise level is subjective. It is what you are used to.
Ride safe!
@@nautilus1753 Yup Revzilla majorly screwed up the Pre-order on those visors and everyone I heard from had to cancel as they were just being ignored.
I never had an X11 but it is quieter than my RF 1200 and X14. But the aerodynamics are different so on your bike setup it might be louder. It's hard to say it universally. Maybe use earplugs ?
I want to buy this visor, but I'm confused where to buy it. I'm from Indonesia btw
Sorry, that is outside of my field of expertise.
In the sunlight the red looks more dark orange which would be perfect for my bike. What are your thoughts? Thanks in advance!
I assume you talk about the helmet and not the visors !? If so, the red goes a little into the orange spectrum, but no idea if it'll fit your bike .
@@MonoMoto Thanks for the response. Yes I’m talking about the helmet. Just wanted your thoughts on weather it looked more orange than red. Thanks!
is there any protint type for these helmets? this way i don't have to keep swapping shields
Yes they have also transition lenses .
So how can I order a cwr-f2 smoke mirror visor?
Amazon link is in the description of the video . Else try sport bike track gear or revzilla .
@@MonoMoto thanks for the response, but I'm talking about the smoke mirror blue, orange etc, can't find them anywhere
@@elgonzo25 yes they are still not available in the USA . If you can’t wait you could order it in Japan . With covid all sorts of things are slowed down right now unfortunately.
@@MonoMoto yes I'm trying right now but I can't understand anything, I think I made it to the check out trying to input my address etc but I can't understand anything lol
