One visor to rule them all

High Definition Amber Visors

What's the opinion on these?

Apparently they not only improve vision, they also block sun-glare....so they are good for both over-cast and sunny days?

Is this true?

Yes, but you can actually get hi-def visors (not inserts).

Yea I know what your talking about, Andy who works at pro kawasaki at slacks creek had one the other night, he said they worked pretty well as an all rounder visor. Personally I don't think they look that good but it saves you having to change visors all the time.

I had a high def visor on an old shoei, it worked pretty well but was really good in the rain as it allowed me to see where the deeper water was and locate the more grippy surfaces.

The amber inserts are the same colour as my original visor and work just as well with the added benifit of being an antifog solution as well.

From memory I think the Amber visor was about the same cost as a full tint version so the cost of converting a clear visor should work out about the same.

I like the Photo Chromatic Fog insert! It changes colour depending on the light! Noice! :)
