Wet riding

[motorbyclist]

fogging is the biggest problem I get too, and you cant lift the visor to give it a wipe on the inside cause it makes it worse.Anybody have any tips to fix this?

I just leave it open a crack, but if I'm riding in fog/cloud and/or it gets cold enough to freeze the fog onto my visor all I can do is open it and suffer the cold - although you can usually open it enough to get limited visibility while still protecting your eyes from rain/bugs

main issue for me has always been fogging in the rain

Stop breathing.

Stop breathing.

Yeah I remember years ago in the UK they had an advert going around about "remember you have to breath" because they recon'd a number of the winter accidents were caused by riders rugging up so much they were reducing their oxygen intake (presumably city traffic)

Hey dude... just have alot of fun non of this is hard and you'll no doubt have some good stories for us on your return.

I just tried pledge on my helmet and fuck it hurts.


Just clean it with a cloth (don't use paper towels - they scratch!!!!!!) and use product if you desire. The wind is then your friend.

Sorry off to dip helmet in a cold bath.

my helmet is an xr1000 with the vent on the front, if thats open and I'm riding there is no fog problems. occasionally I'll get some fog when I'm stuck at the lights, but it clears up pretty quick when I'm moving. Worth it for the cost of the odd bit of water making it through the vent!

catcrap (true .. that's what the product is called)

or even better, a pinlock anti fog system.

thanks...will see if I can find this....note to self catcrap not catshit!

Have tried this but end up getting a nose full of rain and to tell you the truth...it aint pretty when I pull the helmet off and you can imagine the rest!!
