Bruce,

Does it have a clear one as well? Or are you stuck in the dark?

I can't believe that I just licked the back of my hand and sniffed it!

Anyway, just stop breathing or crank the window open every once in a while [sm=exactly.gif]

This has turned out to be a funny thread! Thanks for all the replys and the humor. I love this forum!

lick my hand? NO WAY! No telling where it's been! [:'(]

Stupid me, I was so quick to get back on the road after buying the helmet that I never noticed the little lever that opens the visor a little to clear the fogging... and here I was struggling to breathe and get the the stupid thing open with lined gloves on. LOL I'll try some of these suggestions pluse open the visor when stopped. And, hopefully, I won't be using the thing much longer as it BETTER warm up some. [:@]

I've been using a full face almost from the beginning. Weird facial features makes sunglasses almost impossible.

Anyway, for fogging you have two choices that work best. Fog City shield liner or a Respro Foggy Breathguard.

http://www.cyclegadgets.com/Products...ct.asp?Item=FC

I used the clear liner last year and it worked great. I'm using the polychromatic one this year and it's not as good as the plain liner. At 9 degrees or so, the fog turns immediately to ice so you need something else.

http://www.respro.com

Drill down to the respro foggy breathguard. This blocks the air and redirects it out the bottom of the helmet. This would work even in lowest temps. You have to have a good neck guard though

Open the shield a bit when you are going slower, once you get going you can close it if you want...
