I rode with a visor open ONCE and had a bee fly into my helmet about 35 seconds into the ride. Funk that noize!

I'm with dave, in fact for most of the summer I took the shield off and just wore a pair of ballistic sun glasses, I also keep a clear pair in the trunk. I would wear a 3/4 helmet if I didnt feel soo uncomfortable wearing it, for some reason I actually enjoy the wind in my face, even on uber cold days

clear.

mondos06cbr1000 · 10-20-2009, 06:32 PM

dark on the track, bring a clear one as a backup

Scorpion lid.....clear outer shield and a flip down tinted inner shield for those sunny moments.

I ride with a dark smoke visor, clear if at night. I always keep a part of wrap-around safety glasses with me if I get caught out at night without my clear visor...works fine.

I am thinking about getting one of the dual visor Scorpion helmets. I just dont like how the liner feels. Its kinda rough and itchy compared to my EXo-700

Isn't that the truth!

Arai only had Clear... had a Fog City visor that changed with the light... that fuck'n rocked!

Shark... had a mirror and clear... loved having both... then broke the damn mount on the side

Shoei... only offer clear and light smoke... not worth it to get light smoke... so I wear sunglasses

I have to wear some sort of tinted lenses for the next year or so due to my eye surgery... wish the Shoei had a mirrored lens... but then agian... it's a pain to change... so maybe I dont'

I had something similar but after about a year it crapped out and never changed.
