I had exactly this issue last week! Noticed I was riding with my visor up all the time because it was clearer. Finally got off my arse and gave it a clean - what a difference.

To avoid fogging up completely, just get that clear film that sticks to the inside of your visor(around its edges to create a double glazing effect). Then you can wait for rain as long as you want...

I have a pinlock visor. I don't have issues with fogging up except in extreme cold. My issue was too much bug smear.

The double glazing works even in extreme cold commuting mid winter mornings

Another great tip for riding at night/in winter... a clean visor doesn't fog up as bad as a dirty one.

In saying that, I haven't cleaned my visor since doing a 600+ Kms Northland loop 2 weeks ago.... I'm waiting for it to rain...

The original refernce was to fogging up - so I assumed you had fogging issues?

What a fog up!

I don't know if your familiar with pinlock visors, but when it comes to misting - it's the best you can get. It effectively is a double glazing system.

I can't afford a pinlock right now, but I'd love to have one for my Shoei.
My visor is currently double glazed with a layer of bug juice....

Oh Ok- I did not know that - where do you get them?

A "pinlock visor" is a generic term, like "oil filter". Some more expensive helmets come with them, for others it is an accessory. Typically you go to where you got your helmet from, and say you'd like a pinlock visor for it. Some helmets have after market pinlock visors for them.

Sometimes it is a complete replacement visor, and sometimes it is just an attachment that usually locks on with a pin arrangement.

Yes, it is on every Wednesday.

Last week, we talked about going for a longer ride from Westgate, so that some folk who haven't can get a bit more exposure to night riding ?

Anyone any thoughts on this ?

If we were to do this, it would mean we wouldn't be up at the car park till later on (probably 8 - 8:30 ish)

I'd rather stick to the short ride :-)
