In the really hard frog-strangler rains that Porthole is describing, the only thing I've found that works is take off all glasses (if you are not riding w/a flip-shield helmet), bend down and use your helmet visor (see chrome HD fender tip attached to helmet in avatar) to peer from beneath and ride until you can find some cover to wait for a drought.  :divers009: har!  :drink: spyder

Thats what I was doing...only my helmet ain't got no visor....but the microphone for the headset was doing a good job of blocking the rain for my left eye.  :2vrolijk_21:

Check out essgoggles.com
The V12 advancer might do the trick
Sides pop out for venting. I have used them extensively in environments where normal goggles fail and have had good luck

Actually I think its VR12. But I'm not near a computer.  Used a lot in door kicker jobs. And work well with a ballistic helmet

Thanks Duane, but I was the one who highlighted "But I'm not near a computer now". I was curious how Scot posted this if he wasn't near a computer? :nixweiss: :huepfenlol2: :huepfenlol2: :huepfenlol2: I appreciate your help, Thanks Buddy, God Bless!

He's probably using a Blackberry or some device similar to that, that allows him internet access. :nixweiss:

That had me laughing out loud and garnering some IRE from the spousal unit...who thinks I am a freak chatting so much.  She welcomes any of you brothers to our house in a couple of months too once we have all of our chit in it.
