Glad I'm not the only one.

And you haven't lived until you've had a full beer can thrown at your face at 60mph

Clear shield and sunglasses here. I've tried mirrored shields, but after a couple of months they were always scratched to shit.

Lately i've had the shield off altogether because it's been too damn hot. Clear shield down = greenhouse.

I scratched mine the first day I wore it. I was walking out of work and bumped it on the door as I went through. Still pissed about that.

So you flip it up for the 1/8th of a second it takes to move every last bit of hot air out of it.

I rarely ever put my visor down in the summer, its just a whole lot cooler inside the helmet with the visor open. In fact I haven't had my visor on my helmet for a few weeks, but I keep a pair of clear and a pair of dark ballistic glasses in the bike and switch them around as I need to. I can't get past 20 without my eyes watering to the point that I cant see. in fact if you look at my sig picture my visor is open
