[Lucky]

What does it mean?
People use "Rain Helmet" for a wet season. What is a difference with "regular"?

As you know - during the rain a visor getting fog up immediately.

Is there a kind of helmet that doesn't have effect of "fogging up".
I don't know if it's special design of helmet or if the visor has a special treatment.

my helmet has various air inlets to allow circulation inside the helmet, I never had trouble with the shield fogging when riding. if I had to stop I would just pop the visor up one notch. do you ride a lot, or ever ride in the rain?

Just wipe a little Rain-X on the inside of the shield and it won't fog up.:thumbup:

It depends on how heavy the rain is, I have used various products with limited success. The best thing I have used in the rain is an old pair of frank thomas gloves that had a smaller wiper blade on each thumb.

HJC helmets come with a fog free visor, it lasts about three months. Pretty good though.

Nice, Do they do them in black and silver?

The other thing that works for the outside of the shield is just get your head a little closer to the bikes wind shield and the air swirling there will just blow it off.:thumbup:

why only 3 month? is it kind of coating that not "built in"?

I'm having a problem with fog inside a helmet.

Does it make a greasy film on the visor?

I ride at night, and don't want any light distortion.

My Arai is fitted with this system. It can be post fitted to most helmets.

+ Fog City +

I keep looking at the light reactive ones. How quickly do they respond to change in conditions?
