I cannot make this thing fog up at all. I think the system is way over priced but is worth the money to eliminate helmet fog. It was pretty easy to install and only took a couple minutes. The downside to this is that you have to buy a new shield with the pins. If they sold the pins seperately you could drill your visor and install them yourself, but they don't. I guess you could call Shoei and they could send some. I paid $35.99 for the Sheild and $26.99 each for one clear and one dark smoke "anti-fog lens" from www.motorcyclesuperstore.com The pins are eccentric so you can fine tune the position of the lens once you get it installed. I have tried the fog city lens that just sticks to your visor and this is way better. It does not distort your vision and just simply will not fog. Thumbs up from me! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

So... ![]() the downside is that it takes a little while longer to change inserts than it would to just change the visor. But the upside far outweighs that for me. |
