I do on my shoei x-spirit 2, I buy my tear off from Bob Heath Visors ltd. you have to make sure visor will take them. On the new shoei's the visors are curved and tear offs will not lay flat. Had to go purchase Flat visor (CWF-1) direct form Japan/USA as shoei will not sell them here in UK.

Dave, these are still the wrong visor for Tear offs. The CW-1 is curved North to South (top to bottom) when you put tear off on it sits flush along the middle off visor but flaps around @ top and bottom. Hence you need buy CWF-1 visor........you find a supplier in UK who sells this visor and I'll get you a few pints lol!

Adam,

Follow that link again - they are proper tear off posts on a CWF1 - it's what I got from them for my Shoei...The drop down box gives you that option - also give them a ring  :headbang:

Dave it's still the wrong visor................this one is CW-1 which I already have and is no use with or without post due to curve North to South. I already have correct CWF-1 visor from America. Was just trying to point out on original post that you can not source CWF-1 visor here in UK.

Adam,

Trust me mate, I got a CWF-1 from the link I've posted. It's currently on my Shoei and I also ordered a spare too after I had checked it out...

http://www.mediafire.com/view/0nempwpkza2mrtk/horse_visor.jpg

I agree the drop down box isn't the best worded, but it is the correct one. I had done the same as you, looking Far East and USA until I picked the 'phone up with racevisors and they sent me the correct one.

Ok, I'll give them a go need to get new visor.............have been trying to call them for the last HOUR with no reply will continue trying. It just confuses me if it's a CWF-1 then why do they not advertise as this?? will be a alot easier than going down USA route.
