Default UV Sun Shield - It WORKS!!

If you've ever ridden into the bright sun and you can barely see you will appreciate the link here. It WORKS!! I've actually had to pull over and wait for the sun to go down here in Arizona to continue riding. And yes, I bought the $15 strip before finding this link. Even at the $15 price I'd do it again. Safety is my #1 priority... be safe out there and pass this link along....

I bought two of the $15 ones (they came as a two pack). Installed them on my Arai 3/4 and HJC convertible. I like riding with my visor open and on both helmets they lifted from the visor.

I did basically the same thing when I bought my bike last year. I bought some automotive window tint and applied it to the inside of a face shield. I put a 1" strip at the top edge and then a 2" strip on top. I get a nice dark tint just above the eye line and a very dark strip with a tip of the head. I can pretty much ride directly into the sun and still see.
