There are many people complaining about visor of Schuberth C2 misting up. In several ocations, I have been riding on a motorway without being able to see ANYTHING.
As a solution some people recommend Fog City insert, but I was unable to find out any supplier. Could anybody advice on that?
Alternatively, is it difficult to drill the holes and put pinlock insert?
 
Go to helmetcity.co.uk - they have replacement pinlock visors for about £80.

Ive had fog city in the past, Pinlock massively better
 
I got mine from racevisors.co.uk in January. It was just over £76, inc p&p, back then.

Thanks for the info

Thank you guys for the information. I'll probably go for the pinlock.

There is one technicality: Do I need to get new pinlock ready visor, or can I just drill two holes into my old visor and place the pinlock myself?
 
You could do it yourself, I think you can buy the pins separately, but apparently the insert doesn't come with a template so it may be a bit hit and miss getting them in the exact location. Rotating the pins does increase/decrease the distance between them so you can adjust the tension on the pinlock but not by much. If you don't get the pins positioned correctly the Pinlock will not do it's job.
I decided it wasn't worth the hassle, bit the bullet, and ordered the visor and Pinlock together.

For what it's worth its the best investment I've made. I got mine in January, in the really cold weather I do get a bit of moisture on part of the outside of pinlock due to the poor ventilation of the C2 but cracking open the visor soon clears it. It has much improved my visibility, no matter what I did with the visor prior to the Pinlock I couldn't stop it misting, which meant in the rain I had water running down the inside. So my vision was either impaired by misting or water, I wish the Pinlock had been available when I first bought the helmet.
