Helmet recomendations........

..from other glasses wearers please.

I currently own a Roof Boxer and have to say as a four eyed git its crap,with a capital s(hit).

I have to have the visor up when it rains as it steams up within seconds,and now as a result it smells like a baby has been sick in it,from the damp. Not too pleasant first thing in the morning. There is literally no ventilation whatsoever,and so i give it a big thumbs down.
Anyone have any advice on what to go for next?

Thanks.

Nick, I used to wear glasses and the 2 best lids I had were my Shoei XR800 (todays equivalent is the XR1000) and my AGV XR2 (now under a new name) but both were superb, getting a Foggy Respro guard will help with fogging n misting ....

Happy shopping ....

Nick, I too am a four eyed git and I have a Shoei XR1000, I ride with the visor cracked open but I prefer it that way I have been of some long rides including Salisbury to Heysham when it rained virtually the whole way, other than when we were on the M6 and it was lashing down so hard the visor was swamped I had no problems.

Get a Fog City Hyper Insert, they work a treat.
