Riding in rain
Been caught riding in the rain two times in as many months. It's been fun except for my glasses fogging up. I wear a half lid and have lowered windshield on my RKC. Could barely see through my eyewear, could not at all when oncoming cars with lights on would cause a blinding glare. Had to keep ducking behind my windshield looking over my glasses to see!!! I don't really mind the rain but I need to address this fogging issue. How do you all address this issue?
Thanks,
Rick

I passed a guy wearing normal glasses in a thunderstorm. We were both on dressers. I was a little blurry from drops on visor. Im sure he was basically blind. Crazy.

Foam inserts is what I have on my clear lenses! Worth a try removing. Thanks

Get a FF Helmet. No time for fashion statements when your life is on the line. Use honda spray polish on visor so water beads up smaller.

I don't (purposefully) ride in the rain!

There's plenty of anti fog products you could try. Pick one up and put it your bag when theres a chace of rain. Or good ol spit works in a pinch as well.

I wear a pair of regular sunglasses that have those little nose pad things so the glasses sit up off the nose, vs the frame sitting right on the nose. That way air circulates behind them and keeps them from fogging. They also let a little sun in so I don't get a tanned or burned face with white around the eyes.
