[QUOTE="Pterodactyl, post: 1110236, member: 76805"] The visors were designed to close automatically. Schuberth recommended that slow sppeds the visor could be raised to the "city-travel position", but this even closed at around 30 MPH. They claimed that the helmet was so well ventilated that you need not have the visor raised in high heat or humidity. Not true and should not be their decision. At some point Schuberth caught on and stopped making their helmets this way. I think at some point the C3 changed and I'm told the Pro is not designed this way. As I mentioned earlier, Schuberth will install a revised ratcheting system for you. You must, however find one of their vender stations at a rally to have the work done. They would not give me the new parts claiming that mere mortals would break the new stuff while trying to install it. At the Salem BMW rally last July the Schuberth folks said they plan to supply kits to their dealers so that the dealers can make the fix. You'd have to take your helmet to the place you purchased it. Tough if you did it on-line. All disappointing for such an expensive helmet. The oring fix works just fine and I wear my Schuberth 90% of the time, but were I shopping for another helmet I would sure try many other brands. [/QUOTE]
