    Thanks to all riders for your advice. Looks like I have some great ideas. The Pledge one is intriguing. It may not harm the plastic. Hopefully Plexus will work equally well. Pin lock seems only to be made for several brands of helmets, one rider recommended another anti-fog insert which seemed...

    Thanks - several b loggers have recommended pin lock. One question - when I looked pin lock up they sold them for only 4 brands of helmets. Does this matter or can say the "HJC" model be used on my Scorpion helmet?

    Full Face Helmet Performance In RAIN

    I just returned from a 2 day ride which ended in a lot of night rain. I could not keep the rain from obstructing the view and it became quite unsafe to ride.
