The flip-up face cover seems to dislodges itself at some occasions when the screws on either side of the helmet is a bit loose, this is scary and a bit of a hassle to see the screw drop down to the ground when I open up the flip-up part ...

any 508w users here experiencing the same problem??

How long have you had your helmet? I've had mine for almost 2 months and so far so good. Why dont you bring it to Action Hobbies? They might be able to help. For the meantime, I suggest dont use it. But, dont ride without a helmet on.

Try to keep the screws tight (but not too much or you'll have a hard time lifting the lid or the lens up) regularly. I check mine once every few days.

Lumuluwang din yung sa akin. What I do is I tighten the screws na sagad then ibabalik ko ng 1/4 turn. Kasi pag sagad sa higpit, ang hirap itaas ng lid.

bro ganyan din ang nangyari sa akin bigla nalang natangal yung lid, ginawa ko linagyan ko ng thread sealer (locktite) yung turnilyo ayun ayus na dina sya lumuluwag

i am so thankful that this never happened to me... although i saw a rider once complaining to the shop who sells zeus helmets about the lose screw on his lid. We just need to check the condition of our lids regularly for our own safety.

I guess that is the price we have to pay for buying an inexpesive flip up hemet...:smile:

Hello!

I've heard from a few 508W riders about lost screws. Personally, my 508W haven't had that problem but as a rider myself, I understand your concerns.

From now on, for new Zeus 508W helmets sales, we are including a set of spare screws and screw plate free of charge that's included in the user manual. For existing 508W users who somehow lost a screw, Action Hobbies and Motoworld will provide you a spare one free of charge.

Please be rest assured that the new batch 508W's that just came in have improved alot thanks to your inputs. Paintwork especially in matt and the helmet liners has been made better for your comfort.

Thanks!!

thread locker, or liquid lockwasher, locktite makes several types, color coded according to purpose, permanent, removable, heatproof etc.. :)

Had my zeus flip up for about 5 months too
Ive no problem with it, i just check that the screws are tight, its a bit hard to flip the chin quard up sometimes.

:cheers:

try mo ng clear nail pollish ung screw bago mo ilagay makakatulong yun!!!

Pag nilagyan ba ng thread sealer e mahirap na tanggalin ung screw in case magpalit ng lens?

I've been having the same problem. Now, its too late. The screw somehow managed to get out and drop out in the middle of the ride. I had no choice but to take it off and ride home without a bucket on my head. Bad day.

Do they sell screws for this helmet?

Sorry to hear that. Please bring your helmet to our shop , either at Action Hobbies or Motoworld sa Fort. We will give you a spare screw free of charge.

For new Z-508 or Z-508W sales, we are including a spare set of screw with washers inside the user manual with your helmet just in case you will need them. But like most things with screws, I guess its better to check them once in awhile especially if helmet has been with you for some time and has gone through wear and tear.

Pesonally, I dont' recommend putting any glue or substance on any helmet cuz it might damage the helmet surface.

MOTOWORLD po...

sorry OT po

Nangyayari din sa akin yan, and i appreciate Ryan's post on this matter. Dalhin ko rin sa akin dun sa Action Hobbies yung helmet ko na walang screw. pwede kaya palitan nang buong helmet ulit?

Joke lang Ryan, ha! Di ako marunong maglagay bg smiles eh. I'll drop by your shop by next week. Thanks!

I'm very turned on by Action-Hobbies / Motoworld afterservice!

I'm in the market for a new lid. You just made my life easier. Decision made. nuff said.

Thank you and more power.

8 months ko na gamit ang 508 ko. so far no problem pa.

bro ganyan din ang nangyari sa akin bigla nalang natangal yung lid, ginawa ko linagyan ko ng thread sealer (locktite) yung turnilyo ayun ayus na dina sya lumuluwag
Yep, yan ang solution, thread locker, not too much dahil baka hindi na makalas pag kakailanganing kalasin someday.:D
Pero bago lagyan ng thread locker, lagyan nyo ng pampadulas yung mga moving parts, specifically sa pivot joints(tama ba term ko?:D) ...... PERO WAG GREASE OR OIL HA!!!:D
Use a candle, highly recommended ko kasi ang kandila since hindi messy o kumalat after sometime, malinis tignan, magtatagal ito, padudulasin ang friction ng plastic against plastic ... or even metal to plastic.:)

Sindihan ang candila at patuluan yung mga dapat mapadulas. Then assemble it, igalawgalaw para matanggal ang excess wax ng kandila, then kalasin yung may thread, lagyan ng thread locker, patigasin thread locker at ready to use na.:)

ive a 508w, thanks 4 the tips :)

a small piece of plastic broke off at the pivot point but its still ok, maybe if i had lubricated it, that would not have happened. i just tightened the screws but its a little hard to flip up. but thats better than losing the screws. I like my zeus better than my hjc!

Mga Sir, tanong ko lang kung how much un Zeus na 508 series, and wer can i Buy it..And un modular type makano din kya? tnx...

Mga Sir, tanong ko lang kung how much un Zeus na 508 series, and wer can i Buy it..And un modular type makano din kya? tnx...
bro, the zeus508 is modular. there are two variants: the 508 and the 508w. mas maganda yung 508w.

J-Ru, last time I bought my 508w it was at 4500... and, if my memory serves me right, the 508 was priced at 3800. Try going to action hobbies (edsa - southbound cor. connecticut)... gas station... was it petron or caltex... well it's there. Hope that helps.

Mga Sir, tanong ko lang kung how much un Zeus na 508 series, and wer can i Buy it..And un modular type makano din kya? tnx...

try to visit their website. www.motoworldph.com may map sila diyan at mga products na binebenta. friendly ang mga tao dun, i bought my 508w at 4,300. 4,500 ang bentahan nila tawaran mo na lang.

goodluck

Alphaq2... can't believe you use Zeus 508w... don't tell me you'd be using Komine GK-384, Komine SK-478... that would be so creepy... knowing we have same bikes and same helmet. :O

OT


Gary, i dont believe it i use those komines too! hahaha just kidding. what are those? are those jackets? m planning to get suits too and saw them at motoworld. how much did you get them?

im planning to exchange my helmet cuz its a bit big for me and would like to have the medium size, bought them yesterday. and didnt used it yet.

papayag kaya sila?

Ang dagdag kong feedback, other than that of the screw loosening up by itself, is the paint chipping off.

Maingat naman ako, pero parang madaling mabakbak yung paint ng 508w matte silver ko, compara sa dati kong Zeus 990.

Yeah, 508w matte suffers from paint chips... sayang yung matte black ko... bad trip nga since Zeus Helmets strongly warned na bawal mag-paint ng helmets.

Oh... yung Komine na pinost ko recently. Alphaq2, gloves yun tsaka back protector... mahal masyado jacket kaya baka mag-dress making course nalang ako. hehehe :D

i use 508w glossy dark silver. had many bumps whenever i open the gate but still no scratches just streak marks from the paint of the gate and its easy to remove. i just wipe it off with moistened cotton rag...don't have problems with the screws too.

i hope i wont have a problem with my 506j which i just got yesterday at motosports sa the fort =b
