Transitional Glasses
O.K guys,
I'm tired of having two pairs of glasses. 1 for night riding, 1 for day riding.
Who knows where I could get a good pair for under $100.00 there are so many different kinds I don't know which ones are good or not.
Thanks in advance

I've got a pair of Wiley-x light adjusting glasses with the foam gasket. They go from clear to tinted in the sun. They don't get super dark but I have to tell you they are worth every penny. The foam gasket keeps the wind out of your eyes. Then at night they go back to clear. They make the glasses that Harley sells and they make a lot of military eyeware. If you search ebay you might be able to get them cheaper.

X2 on the Wiley-X. I have the Jake model and had prescription lenses put into them. The foam insert was appealing to me as well. My eyes water real bad in cooler temps. The foam insert stops them from watering. Great riding glasses, I'd do it again.

I got a pair of Global Vision Chicago transitions at my HD dealer for like $30. They aren't quite the quality of the Wiley-X but they don't carry the price tag either. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Chicago-24-M...-/191439534100

I have been looking hard at a good set of riding glasses (prescription) and I noticed they now have some transition lenses that get darker. transitions XTRA advertised as clear to dark smoke. Its a little bit pricier of an option and may put it a little over your budget, but it might be worth it. The transition googles I had didn't get dark enough for my liking.

With a half helmet , I use the Wiley-X Brick model.

Mine are perscription , but they work very well , the neoprene seal works as long as the glasses fit your face properly.
You would have to try a few sets , the reason I chose the Brick was because of the shape of my face.
