Bit of help/ advice needed... I have started wearing glasses when riding my bike, which are great when its dry but I did a couple of hundred miles yesterday in the rain with a couple of stops, so was pretty damp by the time I got home. My pinlock visor worked great but my bloody glasses were steaming up towards the end... whats the answer? is there one.
If i leave the visor open a bit it gets rain in the inside... my hat is well ventilated at any thing over 30mph its just shite in traffic.
wodda you lot recon

I`m sure I read about corrective visors somewhere ?

That was quick... I have vary focals and a different prescription for each side so think that might be a bit expensive

Baza,
Find a dive shop and get some anti mist solution or use saliva. Might sound yuk but it works.
This stuff is available from the net and will probably be the answer

Else use some glycol and water
:wink:

Cheers mate.... you know, I can get that stuff from work (or similar). Its because I am new to the glasses thing.. used it before pinlock... job done...
Thank you for jogging me

Baza,

Sorry to hear that mate, just assumed it was old age, no offence meant.

As for the knob thing....................it has, hence the 'Maralyn' handle.

Fairy Liquid,smear lightly on the inside of the visor.wipe it well off and I guarantee you wont mist up same on glasses.

Ted

must be Fairy though.Other branded names dont do it

I have tried all sorts of things recomended for inside of visors when i was racing. best thing i found was fairy liquid and thats what i use now, trackdays and on the road, should be ok with your glasses just takes a bit off practice to get the amount used correct. (only needs a very little bit). just wipe it off with a clean soft tissue.

HANDS THAT DO DISHES CAN FEEL AS SOFT AS YOUR FACE WITH MILD GREEN FAIRY LIQUID.

Maralyn, I was playing, although my eyes are buggered, I also had a hole drilled in one of them a few years back (I forgot about that) then there is the getting old part of it .
Thanks lads will give the fog off, washing up liquid a go on the glasses, the visor isn't a problem as pinlock system is brilliant.
Mikey, I had that stuff for my griffin clubman what a waste of time , you saved yourself a good few shillings there.
