WANT TO ENHANCE YOUR MOTORCYCLE RIDE?
SHOEI ® TRANSITIONS ® ADAPTIVE MOTORCYCLE SHIELDS SEAMLESSLY SELF-ADJUST FROM CLEAR TO DARK AND BACK AGAIN WITH CHANGING LIGHT CONDITIONS FOR ENHANCED VISUAL PERFORMANCE THROUGHOUT YOUR RIDE.
HOW PHOTOCHROMICS WORK Photochromic technology allows visors to automatically and seamlessly change from clear to dark in sunlight. The process works when photochromic dyes embedded into the lens or shield react to UV light, changing levels of darkness with the sun. When UV light is removed, a chemical reaction driven by ambient heat reconverts the activated photochromic molecules to their original, clear form and the lens fades. The amount darkening is a function of the competition between the activating and fading chemical reactions, the equilibrium condition established between them, and the specific photochromic molecules and the lens substrate. The more activated photochromic molecules that are present, the darker a lens becomes. The degree of darkness depends on the level of available UV radiation driving the activation reaction and the temperature of the lens, which drives the fade reaction. SUPERIOR RIDING PERFORMANCE Whether dominating the race track or out for a pleasure ride, motorcyclists know how important clear, crisp vision is. Traditionally, riders dealt with changing light conditions by carrying two shields (one clear, one tinted) with them at all times. SHOEI ® Transitions ® adaptive shields solve this problem, and even enhance vision, by seamlessly adjusting to optimized darkness levels with the changing light.
