    Suomy lid

    I have a Shoei and a Suomy spec 1r. The suomy I have retired because I just could not get the side pods on for the life of me. Well, today I watched a youtube how too and got them on. But, I had to losen the pivot bracket that connects to the helmet to get them on. When the shield is down it seems fin just alittle lose. Any Suomy owners here that can give me some input?

    tighten the bracket so its snug. you don't have to tighten the shit out of the screw. line up the rear tab with the little slot it goes into then give it a good whack down but also toward the front.

    you're doing something wrong if you had to take screw out or something else is wrong cause there's only 4 screws on the whole helmet.
