    related - kind of...

    Hi everyone - this is the first post I have made on kiwi bikers... I just got my motorbike learners, and also have a 50cc Daelim Cordi scooter... What I want to know is related to the whole fogging thing: I have glasses, and when I close my visor, they fog up - my visor stays clear. Does anyone have the same problem, and if so, how do I fix it? With winter coming up, I don't rally want to have an open visor the whole time...

    Sorry if this is slightly off topic...

    the fog city inserts work well but Im not happy with the pheripheral vision
    there is a product called fog off that works well

    ^^ Getting hit in the face with bugs has got to be the nastiest thing.

    In regards to glasses fogging, you'll find that most cheap...wait...sensible night time riders, who don't have tinted visors wear sunnies 80% of the time and have the same issue. I guess you could either treat your glasses with an anti-fog product (dodgy depending on what your lens are made of), or do what I guess everyone does (well I do anyway ) and keep your visor open a notch and remember to breath through your mouth and down towards the open part of the visor.

    Also wear glasses. go to your nearest glasses palce and ask them for antifog cleaners. Also if found that a good ventilated helmut does the job

    The best (and most expensive) solution is to upgrade to a shoei helmet and use their pinlock visor system. I've tried most things mentioned short of winjas suggestions.

    The pinlocks give similar excellent results to the fog city inserts in keeping the visor clear at all times - but without the opaque patches caused by the fog city's adhesive.

    For that matter the reduced periperal vision of the fog city insert is a small price to pay for being able to see clearly through most of the visor at all times.

    Films, sprays or treatments need to be re-applied for regularly optimum effect - the pinlocks are set and forget and easy to clean.

    Well worth the $ if you can afford it. Otherwise winja.....
