    You can get those auto-adjust fog-city inserts. Great!, not so dark at night.
    Mine never really got dark enough.Could be the visor blocking UV thing again .

    I don't have a problem with riding with a tinted visor at night, I do it almost every day. Tunnels, lift it up, but otherwise, no problem, if anything, more relaxing and car headlights are dulled, so everything is just a few shades darker.
    Fully agree with that, the only thing i find is it makes paedestrians hard to see when they cross the road...otherwise i never have an issue. the eyes adjust to the reduced light and you don't notice it. just don't keep opening and closing the visor, that wil stuff up you night vision. if it's down, keep it down

    Really? thats like saying um......na na bro, I got the day off tonight.
    I work weird hours, regularly into the early hours, so "day" is used in the sense of 24 hours. Night/day the only difference is night time I get less phone calls, so I can work more productively.

    Visor ?? What Visor ?
    From talking shit
    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    Just bought an iridium visor for the arai.

    Good points: It looks like the dogs lickable bits, I have also heard that is a bit better in low light situations than a tinted visor.

    Bad points: It picks up fingerprints if you so much as think about touching it and you also get a reflection of your face on the inside of the visor when its really sunny.

    Overall: It looks cool, cost lots and not quite as good as a tinted visor in strong sunshine. If I could make the choice again I would probably buy a dark tint visor instead.
