Has anyone ever used one of these?

I was considering buying a second visor with a tint for when it's sunny, but saw this and wondered what people thought?

dont really rate them tbh. they are alright if its not really stong sunlight but once you come head on into the sun they dont really do much. ive got a fog city one that goes from a light green tint to a mid blue one. its bin good through winter because it stops my helmet misting up but now the suns getting stronger its not really doing much for me, and ive just ordered a tinted visor myself.

hope that helps your decision,

I have a similar insert (Fog City HyperOptik) on my clear visor.

Used it in all weather conditions, and never had any real problems... except in the absolute brightest conditions.

My only problem has been when the sun is low over the horizon and shining straight at ya...

(I'll be getting a black/race visor before the summer)

They dont work. I have tried them. Warned my friends...they got them realise they dont work.

Try a caberg lid with a built in dark visor or a pair of sunglasses or just a dark visor.
