Default Fogging up

I wear the Harley full face modular Skull helmet and im having a prob

I use a PinLock visor system http://www.pinlockusa.net/.

I use this both for Snowmobiling in the cold (Colorado Mountains) and riding in the cold. Works great. Most HD helmets are either HJC or KBC helmets and you can get the Pin Lock visor and Pin Lock insert for both brands. Well worth the money. And when you don't need the insert, you just take it out and the visor works as normal.

Seems to me we used to use a furniture polish like Pledge to prevent fogging when I used to ride snowmobiles back a couple decades ago. I carry pledge to clean all surfaces on my scooter including the windshield and would not be afraid to try it.

I get a similar problem when wearing my scorpion 1000. I cant call it fog but I know its confensation that is hard to see thru except with the visor open or all vents open going at highway speeds. When its raining I have to crack the visor with the vents too and enjoy the leaks.

Go to your dealer and ask for a " Mouth box" or something to that effect. I bought a full face to wear in the winter and the parts guy threw it in for free. I think it was about 19.95. It snapped right into the helmet and covered your nose and mouth. Keeping all your breath from the visor. It works just fine for me.
I have an HJC helmet. I would guess it works on others too.

I bought a jar of this stuff (Z-Wax) at a rally 3yrs ago and still have 30% left.
It cleans and eliminates ALL fogging. Probably similar to CatCrap ??
The humidity down here is 90% year round, I reapply it once a month or so.
Zooke anti-fog

Fog Tech packets from Rider Warehouse, come 5 to a box. Always have a couple boxes on the bike, I'm a very popular guy in group rides when the rain starts!
