The pinlock is a system to fit an internal anti-fog screen. Acts sort of like double glazing, its a plastic visor with a soft bead around the edge, the two pins on the helmet visor squeeze it tightly into place.
I got a HJC RPHA 10+ a couple of months or so ago and it came with one in the box. Works quite well, no fog issues even in the cold rain this morning. The only issue I have found with it are that if you need to wash your visor water can get between the pinlock and the visor as the seal moves a bit when the visor flexes. You can simply remove it etc but my pins are starting to deform the pinlock visor a little so not sure how long it will last.

Some say...

You have the pins on the visor now you need to mount the pinlock insert bit like this: ! No longer available If the insert is not supplied with the helmet you can buy one for about £20. It worths every penny because stops the visor from fogging when cold/winter/rain, you can buy one from here: http://www.racevisors.co.uk/category/acc...gv-inserts

Had a hjc for years , was a great lid , Brought a Duchinni d2111 one of these dual purpose helmets and could not get on with it, very noisy and cheaply made, one of the screws that secured the visor fell out after a couple of trips .
