Tommy_Boy Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 I need a new visor for my Schuberth C2, but my local dealer can't get them. Anybody know of an on-line source? Link to comment
alanz Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 I spoke to a fellow at Sierra BMW today and he said that Schuberth is setting up their own US distribution, likely 6 or 8 weeks away. I'm looking for a visor for an original Concept helmet, and evidently they are backordered pretty much everywhere. I hope the new distributor arrangement allieviates these problems. Link to comment
SAAB93driver Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Try Extreme Supply Extreme Supply Schuberth page I have no affiliation other than I just bought a C2 from them. Link to comment
VonDawg Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 This work well for me, permanatly on a second visor, for when you don't want it there. Behind an RT windscreen no problem...don't know about the buffeting without one. www.super-visor.com] Link to comment
RSL Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 I spoke to a fellow at Sierra BMW today and he said that Schuberth is setting up their own US distribution, likely 6 or 8 weeks away. I'm looking for a visor for an original Concept helmet, and evidently they are backordered pretty much everywhere. I hope the new distributor arrangement allieviates these problems. When the Concept helmet first came out, I imported a couple of them from Germany, along with some spare visors for later use. Anyhow, I sold the helmets, but probably still have the unused spare visors around here somewhere, still in the wrappers. I think the visor is the same for both Concept and C2 helmets, but you should verify that independently. If anybody wants one (or two), PM me and I'll try and find them. Price is the same as online, plus actual cost of shipping. Link to comment
alanz Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 PM has been sent, thanks for the offer. Link to comment
Mdcruiser Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 Try Extreme Supply Thanks! Just ordered a new C2 Visor. A Google search reveals no other sellers, so I guess Schuberth is cutting others off while they set up a distribution network.

Mdcruiser Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Alas, Extreme Supply is all out. I cannot find a replacement visor available anywhere. This is crazy! Link to comment
squints Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Try www.derbycycles.com They are still showing them on the website for $79.00 Heck of a price to pay but cheaper than a new helmet. Link to comment
Mdcruiser Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 When one clicks on the item at the Derby Cycles site, it says, of course, "Out of Stock". I did contact my helmet seller, Arizona's excellent Helmet Harbor. This is what I got as a return message: "Unfortunately we can’t get any visors right now because Schuberth dropped their American distributor. It has been about 7 months now. So I can’t the helmets or the parts until someone picks them up. You might try going directly to Schuberth. Question: how does one go "directly to Schuberth"? Link to comment
velomoto Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 Search for them in in Canada Ok, so how does one search for Canadian shops via Google or any other search engine??? Link to comment
Jacques Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 I bought a C2 Schubert helmet 3 weeks ago from Pacific Yamaha/BMW in Richmond B.C.(www.pacificyamahabmw.com). At the same time I ordered a spare visor for the helmet. Today I got the phone call from the dealer that my visor has arrived and is ready to be pick up (CAN$89.00). Link to comment
Mdcruiser Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 Thanks -- I did correspond with them. They tell me that in one month BMW of Santa Cruz will be their US distributor, and will be stocked with visors. Link to comment
Pictou Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 You can get them in Canada but it can take a long time for them to arrive. I ordered one in March from Budds BMW in Oakville, Ont. It arrived this week. Andrew Search for them in in Canada Link to comment
Mdcruiser Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 An update: I contacted Schuberth, and those folks are just excellent! They shipped me out a visor by UPS Express, and it arrived in 48 hrs from Germany. Total cost was 34.4 Euros, not very bad at all. I am extremely impressed with these people. Link to comment
