Although I've used Fog City for years, I would also try the pinlock system, except that it's only available for Shoei and HJC... :glare:I've had good luck with Fog City but I need a new one and maybe I'll give the pinlock a shot.

+1Well, that pansy ass no fog PinLock visor is one of the best anti fog units you can run. I have tried Fog City shields, and the PinLock that comes standard with Nolan helmets is 10x better.My Nolan came with a pansy ass no-fog piece of plastic that 'slips into place' to prevent fogging. Yeah, right, like I'm gonna let some unattached piece of plastic sit in front of my eyes & hope it doesn't start to flop around while I'm riding...
It works wonderfully in the Pacific NW moisture like a charm!
And I have never had a PinLock visor come loose, while riding or otherwise, it is quite secure.
For all of you crazy folksout there riding this winter, how do you keep your faceshield from fogging up?
I added heated grips to my FJR, with them riding even in the low 30's doesn't seem to be much of a problem although my faceshield wants to fog up. Any recommendations on preventing this?
Thanks,
John
No insult intended and I sincerely apologize if I offend you but I have to ask. Was the insert on the inside or the outside of the visor?The fog city visor (at least I think tha's the one) peeled off in heavy rain,
When I don't ware my Scorpion helmet I use Fog tech.. www.fogtech.ca/ the stuff really works as advertised and one bottle last a whole season easily. You just wipe a thin film on the inside of your visor and it WILL NOT FOG at all. I ride all winter long unless there is snow or ice on the road and wont leave the driveway without it.If only Scorpion would make visors for other helmet brands....They would make a fortune!
find it, use it, it works great in my N102 dont understand how/why it works, I'm too simple minded, but it worksOK I'm guilty of snap decisions & sticking to them... Since you believe in it so strongly, I'll have to give it a try next time I ride. Now all I have to do is find it, it's somewhere in the garage...
Lots of reccos, here. Breath deflectors (over the nose) and helmets that have the feature that prevents the visor from closing completely are a big help. If your helmet doesn't offer that feature, a plain-old spring-style clothes pin clipped (temporarily) to the bottom edge of your helmet's face shield can be a 'life saver'. Remember, most of your decision making is because of visual info..... :blink:<snip>For all of you crazy folksout there riding this winter, how do you keep your faceshield from fogging up?...

Where did I hide that bottle of pain killers....
+4 (I think that's what we're up to on the pinlock). I'm afraid you trashed one of the features that makes the helmet worth buying. It works well. And hasn't budged in 30,000 miles.find it, use it, it works great in my N102 dont understand how/why it works, I'm too simple minded, but it worksOK I'm guilty of snap decisions & sticking to them...

Cat Crap DOES NOT WORK...AT ALL. It may be a decent cleaner but it doesn't even slow the fogging proccess. I had read about it and bought some a few weeks ago...I was very dissapointed. I'm confused how you could have used it for years??
+1. Used it for years.
If you wear specs, don't forget them too !
I've not had any daytime issues with the pinlock in my Nolan, and even at night the light show is mild compared to the fog cities I've used in the past.Snip

[SIZE=14pt]As for the Pinlock system, does it distort your view at all in the daytime??[/SIZE]
