Prescription Raybans. I never have a problem with wind, rain or bugs with them. My full-face helmet and face shield fixes those issues.

Buy a pair with a removeble foam liner and a strap to secure them at highway speed. Intechangeable lens is a good thing as well.

I wear WileyX with foam around the eyes and I have to say they are the best glasses I have ever had for riding. I have tried oakleys and other name brands but they do not work near as well as the WileyX. They are pretty expensive but I need glases with prescriptions in them so I really have no choice.

Arnette's, around $80. Awesome all around sunglasses, nice wraparound to them which keeps the wind out. Like 2007fxdc said, I can't go outside without em regardless if it's sunny or not.

Panoptix for sure. Day/night with foam insert. A little pricey, but well worth it. Once you try them, you'll never go back.

Everyone's face has a different shape, of course. For me, the WileyX "Blink" frame fit me perfectly. They have a foam eye socket cup to seal my eyes from dust/wind/rain etc. And the transition lenses are worth the extra money. I can ride 'em day or night, rain or shine and I love 'em!

Cheers,
J

Wal-Mart in the four wheeler supplies near the auto department glasses with foam around the outside and the dark tinted glass comes off and clear for night riding.

Panoptix with transitional lenses, only have to have one pair for the day and night. The foam cups keep the wind out of my eyes, very important as i wear contacts. Bought for $100 on closeout at ROT.
