KBC Helmets - QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

GENERAL USE AND ADVICE OF KBC HELMETS
HELMET VENTS: KBC helmets are equipped with many different venting systems designed specifically for each helmet.  Prior to use, please familiarize yourself with the workings and functions of your helmet so as to ensure correct operation while riding.  Always take extra care while adjusting any vent during your motorcycle ride.

KBC HELMET SHIELD OPERATION: Your KBC helmet comes with a special large operating tab to the left hand side of the shield.  This tab allows easy operation with a gloved hand, always use this tab to operate the shield opening function.  This is the quickest and safest method of operation.  Do not open the shield while riding at high speed as damage to the helmet or an accident could occur.
LUBRICATION: From time to time, KBC recommends that a small amount of lubricating gel such as petroleum jelly, or high quality, silicone-based lubricating gel or spray is applied to the shield mechanism and any switch gear and vent mechanisms.  Be careful not to accidentally apply any chemical or material to the shield or other component pieces.

KBC Helmet FAQ

KBC HELMET CLOTH COVER: This helmet is supplied with a protective outer cloth cover.  This is for protection of the paint finish only while being stored or carried in a supporting bag and should not be under any circumstances be used to carry the helmet on it's own.
HELMET SHARING: During its usage the helmet interior will naturally contour to the shape of the owners head, therefore it is not recommended that any helmet be worn by anyone else other than the owner.
