There are probably links to discussions of this, but it's Still cold out and thought I would start a new thread.

I have a pair of Smith Optics, Chamber Tactical sun glasses that fit me about perfect. Snug to my face, great clarity, tough lenses. However, I only tried riding once without a windshield...I was crying in two miles.

So, what do you wear to keep the wind out of your eyes when the bike is stripped down for scooting around?

 

I wear the cheap $20 Harley Davidson tinted glasses you can pick up at any HD shop. Works fine for me other than getting fogged up every now and then.

 

Spy Optic, model OTF (over the fence)

 

A 3/4 helmet with a face shield. No car part aka windshield on my bike.

 

For me it has to be goggles, especially without a shield. Have had many but probably like the 7 eye I have best that are light adjusting. Brightest sun to dark of night and good to go.

But last year I gave up on contacts and back to glasses so wearing over glass goggles when wearing a skid lid. A Daytona flip shield when it may rain and a Voss modular when it is cold.

Same for me but I will add that under the face shield I wear impact resistant Ray Bans with prescription lenses.

 

KDs

They're cheap, but work great. I get the X KDs cause they're a little bigger and fit my face better. I also like that you can get them with polarized lens which cuts down glare on the road. If I break them or lose them...oh well. I buy another pair without breaking the bank.

 

I never ride without a windshield. The sunglasses I wear are $10-$15 ones from walmart. Never had a problem.

 

The tearing or "crying" subsides after the eyes dry out.

 

Liberty sport prescription riding glasses. My insurance covered them. Gray tinted
