pg Serious Thumper Offline Posts: 5273 In Transit	Helmet Fog 10/22/13 at 16:51:11 I'm fortunate to live in a climate where it is tolerable to ride year round. Although, I don't want to go through another winter riding where I can't see out of my helmet shield because of the fog. If you got any thoughts please share them, thanks.

Posts: 3547 Rome, Italy Gender:	Re: Helmet Fog Reply #3 - 10/23/13 at 01:13:28 I simply lift the visor at the lights, and pull it down again after shifting into 2nd gear. Anyway, I do confirm that most of the time it's the eyeglasses fogging up... ...I lift the visor and it's still foggy !

HAPPYDAN Senior Member Offline SuzukiSavage.com Rocks! Posts: 270	Re: Helmet Fog Reply #11 - 10/24/13 at 15:46:03 Bell makes a good, affordable 3/4 helmet with full-face retractable visor. the Tacoma motor cops use them, and its kind of fun to play "white knight" at stop lights! Flips up and down with one hand, and has taken some 60mph rock hits w/o a scratch.

Avoid mouth breathing OUT, that carries more moisture,
Get a snorkel & wear it pointed down yer chest, then you can breathe in & out & have no fog.
If youre wearing a baliclava it seems to make it worse. Certainly fogs my glasses if its not set up Juuust So.
I like the HJC modular. Just crack the visor to the first click & No Fog,
TRy to fog fighting approaches above, too.
