Great thread w4p2. Really enjoyed your pics. Kind of makes "winterising" take on a new meaning.

You very much pinpointed the only major problem.

In my tank pack I carry Visor for Nolan Classic plus helmet, ok when temperature +- few degrees from 0C.

I also tried Nolan Classic N-Com helmet, waste of time and money.

I tried various glasses, including Enduro ones by Scott,  classic angled glass glasis by various makers, yellow sun glases etc... with bad results.

So far the best have been Alpina Ceramic fogtop skiing wrap aroung type sunglases, clear shooting glases and "swimming glass" type protective mirrowed eaywere from unknown manufacturer.

I carry with me four set of Glases, one visor, clening fluig and rags as I go. Irrigardless, while in the deep forest, the best is to trusts on one's eaylids... no time for fog spots.

w4p2, you da man!

I noticed you don't have a wind deflector, even more impressive!

I was wondering, what do you use for eye protection and how do you keep them from fogging up? I have problems with my full face shield & helmet at 32 to 36 degree weather even with front & top vents open, only minimize the problem a bit with a buff to cover my mouth and not breath out thru my nose. Thought a wind/bug deflector might help but looking for something for the face shield, this is all new to me.

Thanks for sharing!

  Some of the snowmobil rs use heated faceshields when it's really cold.
