How to Remove a HJC Shield

HJC helmets are a popular brand of motorcycle, off-road and auto racing helmets worn by motorists of all skill levels. Daily use of the helmet can cause moisture to accumulate on the face shield making it cloudy. Fortunately, the HJC helmet is composed of a ratchet mechanism that allows you to easily remove the shield so you can clean or replace it. Removing the face shield can be done in under a minute.
