Foggy Face Guard

Just picked up one of these from Helmet Harbor. Works exactly as advertised. This morning on the way to work (cool and dark at 5:45 a.m.), I was able to close and lock the shield on my Arai Quantum and the inside didn't fog, not even a little bit. I have heretofore always had to keep the shield cracked ever so slightly on rainy or cold days.

Two thumbs up!

Chain's right, they work perfect, in any weather.

If you ever ride in any adverse conditions, thay are a must for your helmet.

Well then, this thread could be generally characterized as being populated by the more intelligent members of the Fireblades community, don't you think Newfie and TGZ?

Well I don't own a Foggy gizmo, but I want to be part of the elite intelligent set so I will post here in this thread if that's all it takes to be known as intelligent 'cause I'm all for being considered intelligent and certainly wouldn't want anyone to think otherwise, i.e., that I'm not somewhat intelligent, if you catch my drift intelligent ones.

Re: Foggy Face Guard

Interesting product. I might consider getting two. I would like to know if anyone is wearing glasses with this, because a good seal on the cheek is a must, or else the glasses will fog.

Re: Foggy Face Guard

Tell you what. It's such a good seal all the way across my cheeks that it left a little mark when I took my helmet off. Nothing that proved uncomfortable or didn't go away in five minutes mind you.

Thanks for the compliment Chain, but since you guys south of the border don't know much about Newfie's reputations, I'll allow the other Canucks here to answer for me.

It actually does a hole lot more then those little things do. It comes up to the bridge of your nose and you tuck the sides into the cheek pads. Ever see the breath guards people wear in the winter... well like that but shorter

Re: Foggy Face Guard

when I bought my Suomy it was still just getting out of winter so it was a bit cold sometimes and the visor would fog up. but after a couple times out riding I figured out the fae shield NEVER fogged, it was just my glasses fogging. so if you bought the right helmet (Suomy) then you wouldn't need that thingy. so you people are smart but I'm smarter.
