Cranky at my visor!!!!

[Jaykay]

Sooo. Left work late last night and got hit with some lovely brisbane rain. Was a nice zenfull ride untill my visor decided after 6 months It no longer felt like being an 'anti fog' variation... Maybe 6 months is its used by date...

How long have people found it takes for you 'Anti fog' to become 'not so anti fog'??

[Strika]

I've never found standard Anti Fog visors to actually be anti fog! I've always used an insert, such as the Fog City or similiar, which work perfectly, for the life of the visor!!

recently, I bought a new tint and clear visor for my Arai (after 4 years) and stuck some Pro-Grip anti fog inserts in them. They are Photochromatic, so they tint in the sun and clear up when the light is low. So far (2 months) they have performed faultlessly. Even up at Lavers Hill in 12 degrees and rain, it remained perfectly clear. even in the slow stuff where there is not enough wind to clear a visor, it stayed clear! The Pro-Grip is a little cheaper than the Fog City branded ones also!

My visor fogs all the time must be a heavy breather

Fog city are ace! i had one im my last helmet, you could purposefully breath heavy in it and it would not fog up.

Hoffy, Glen and Phil are big fans of the "breath deflector" thing that goes over your nose and diverts breath downwards and out.

Yeah I ware my fog off mask thinger during winter, don't even pack it now it has warmed up tho... Annoys the fk out of me... I think I'll have to investigate the fog city inserts.... Cheers boys....

I've got two now. I've got the neoprene one that velcro's onto your chin bar, absolutely faultless but takes a bit of getting used to on your nose, and I've got the standard Shoei clip in breath guard that's not as good as the fogg off thing but pretty good so long as you breath downwards

It depends how much you clean it, I got about 4 months on my first because I religiously cleaned both sides, my second did 12 months with only cleaning the outer side (and the inner on a rare occasion)

Hmmm Over cleaning it might be... Makes sense... Fark it... Helmet and bike are like the only two things in this world that I religously clean.. Oh an my pooch..

ive had my AXO kevler/fibreglass helmet for 8 months and it didnt state weather it was anti fog or not and the only time it fogs is on very cold mornings when i breathe heavy but it dissapears within a few seconds
its got like 6 air vents so they sorta help maybe u should contact the manufactorer

I used to start work 4:30am so I would ride out at 3am in all sorts of cold/stormy weather. Shark RSX 3mm anti scratch anti fog....NEVER fogs up...I can hold it 2mms from my mouth and try the mist it up and it just wont. My other shark, the rsi, fogs up when stationary....but once moving is better, still fogs a little though.

Try this until you can get your fogcity visor

Got any shaving foam ??
spray a little on the inside of the visor and polish it off with a soft cloth
Neat washing up liquid works too BUT contains salt so can put minute scratches in the surface of the plastic

I.ve got 2 different model AGV Helmets both with anti fog visors and they work a treat.

I have the RJays version of the FogCity and it works really well......and is about half the price of the FogCity one
