Gringo SV takes the classic motorcycle aesthetic we reenergized ten years ago in a bold new direction. The result is a helmet with world-class comfort, function, and style.
Note: the new Gringo SV will not work with the old Gringo S shields because the closure has been improved. There will be replacement shields in different tints available soon!

Helmet Fitment

Regular price
$74.95
Premium Replacement Shields for Biltwell Gringo S & SV Helmets
Official Biltwell replacement shields designed specifically for the Gringo S and Gringo SV full-face helmets. These high-quality polycarbonate shields provide excellent optical clarity, impact resistance, and UV protection. Available in three popular finishes to match your riding style and lighting conditions.
Available Shield Finishes
Clear - Maximum visibility for day and night riding. Perfect for all-around use and low-light conditions. Provides 100% UV protection while maintaining crystal-clear optical clarity.
Chrome Mirror - Reflective chrome finish reduces glare in bright sunlight while adding aggressive styling. Ideal for sunny day riding and creating a bold, intimidating look.
Dark Smoke - Tinted smoke finish reduces eye strain in bright conditions without being too dark. Versatile option that works well in various lighting conditions while adding subtle style.
Key Features
100% UV Protection - All shields block harmful UV rays to protect your eyes
Impact-Resistant Polycarbonate - Durable construction meets safety standards
Anti-Scratch Coating - Hard-coated surface resists scratches and abrasions
Distortion-Free Optics - Injection-molded for optical clarity without distortion
Easy Installation - Simple tool-free shield changes with Biltwell's quick-release system
Perfect Fit - Designed specifically for Gringo S and Gringo SV helmets

Compatible Biltwell Helmets
These shields are designed to fit the following Biltwell helmet models:
Note: These shields are NOT compatible with the original Biltwell Gringo helmet (without S or SV designation).
Choosing the Right Shield
Clear Shield: The most versatile option for riders who ride in varying light conditions. Clear shields provide maximum visibility day or night and are essential for night riding or low-light conditions. Keep a clear shield as your primary or backup option.
Chrome Mirror Shield: Best for bright, sunny conditions where glare reduction is important. The reflective chrome finish not only looks aggressive but functionally reduces eye strain in intense sunlight. Not recommended for night riding or low-light conditions.
Dark Smoke Shield: The middle ground between clear and mirror shields. Dark smoke provides glare reduction in bright conditions while still offering decent visibility in overcast weather. A popular choice for riders who primarily ride during the day but occasionally encounter varying light conditions.
Shield Maintenance Tips
Clean shields with mild soap and water - never use harsh chemicals or solvents
Use a soft microfiber cloth to prevent scratching
Store spare shields in a protective bag to prevent scratches
Replace shields if they become heavily scratched or damaged
Inspect shield mounting points regularly for wear
Keep a spare shield on hand for quick changes based on riding conditions
