Full face fog

[J.R. Bob Dobbs]

My problem is that my Eyeglasses fog very easily in high humidity/cold weather. Mostly when stopped, but if it's in the 30's at night, they'll fog when riding unless the visor is open a notch. I guess my eyeballs throw off humidity.

Never had a problem with the visor itself fogging.

gonna have to +1 the liquid soap idea put here earlier, worked fine when I used to play hockey for the glasses and the visor. dont see why it would be different on a bike. although for 30 bucks, why not try those anti fog things.

Four solutions:

1) some helmet manufactures make "snowmobiling visors" which are dual panes, and some even have electric defrost circuits. check it out for your brand.

2) i recommend the Fog City fog shield too. I makes your visor into a dual pane one like solution #1. I've used them for ice racing and roadracing, plus street riding. they work awesome, although once screwed up applying one on one of my visors and had to find some decenty glue to fix it, because one leak they fail. They were $40cdn but may be cheaper now - they should be, but they were worth $40 for me at the time),. so, make sure the visor is clean and dry, align it perfectly without attaching, and then in one clean application from center to edges push the adesive edge of the fogshield onto the visor. voila..

3) An excellent and cheap trick is to take a piece of duct tape and patch it across your nose and over the brow of the "chin bar spoiler" on on your helemt. Works great!

4) i have a commercial version of solution#3, made by Shoei, which is a little breath mask made out of soft rubber, with a head-strap that secures it to your face even while the helmet is off. Like the poorman's duct tape trick it routes your breath down and out the bottom of the helmet.

5) Use shaving cream. Apply it on the inside of the visor, let dry, lightly buff out. Make sure it's clear enough to see through without haze or halos around lights.

Helps in all but the worst fogging scenarios and makes your lid smell that much better.

One solution, the foggy face guard, My shield would fog in less than 10 seconds, I got one of these and seriously, NO fogging at all. Not even a speck. Best investment I ever made. From all these wierd creams and expensive bionic breathalizers, for 20 bucks you get a guaranteed anti-fog solution. I can take pics of my helmet with it on if you want.

Breathing through your nose and breathing slowly will solve most fogging issues with your visor. If your at a stoplight, just flip up the visor some or all the way if you want and no fogging. That is my cheap and easy way to avoid fogging up my visor.

Might not be viable, every snowmobile helmet ive owned (Been skidooing alot longer then biking) has allways had a "not for summer use" warning on the visors. something to do with the type of plastic. may not be a real problem, just thought id mention it.

If it makes you feel any better, I'll probably be ordering one soon. On a side note, err, what's with the Haruhi sig?

Naw, I posted about it on page 1! It is pretty great, although I find my helmet more comfortable without it in there. It's worth it though for the really cold days.
