Take a look at this.

I have one, and it works pritty good. Use a dark tint most of the time, and carry a clear for night riding. (You can change them out in just a few seconds.

Hope this helps,

Best wishes....Tim(HT)

You're better off with m/c sunglasses, or goggles...that visor is going to be a wind catcher.

I have the HD pull down visor 1/2 helmet and it is very comfortable but I'm 90% deaf in my left ear so no cover on the ear was an issue for me cause I can't handle the rushing sound at high speeds and ear plugs annoy the **** out of me. As far as the pull down visor, it reflects the wind pretty well but you still need goggles or something to prevent dust and such from getting in your eyes. So like if your someone who wears glasses or likes clear goggles and just want something for bright days its a good option. I would not say it effectively does the same for eye protection that goggles do because IMO at 70mph small debris gets in your eyes pretty easy without something that seals against your face to block the wind draft coming up. Living out here in the desert with all the sand blowing around I wear goggles regardless cause getting sand in your eyes at freeway speeds really sucks.



BTW mine is for sale listed in my sig if anybody is interested but its an XXL cause I have a large noggin.

I have a visor on an HJC helmet, but without goggles or MC glasses the visor lets too much wind in to be practicle.

I tried that Scorpion one on and it was really nice. But I got away from all the half helmet craziness and went with the HJC FS-10 ff with retractable sunshield. I love it.
