Which visor?

[Mudskipper]

I want a tinted visor for my lid, but can't decide what tint (too much choice! )

So which do BCF-ers think would suit the best?

Light smoke would do the job adequately, black draws me with it's undeniable coolness, but the silver mirror is very nice too. Or maybe rainbow iridium?

My old lid had an inner sun visor, so this is my first visor-decidingness thing.

Lid is plain metallic black with grey detailing, jacket black/white/silver.

Can you tell I'm bored?!

Black with a black lid, I was warned away from iridium coatings as I believe they don't accept scratches as well as others, unless your going to be crazy careful about not touching your visor.
I.e not wiping flies/rain off with a gloved hand personally I'd stick with black.
And invest in a bumbag/visorbag it's very annoying if you end up out later than expected and you can't see shit, take yours clear with you

All Iridium is a crime against taste. It looked good in the early nineties along with anodised tat and purple headlight covers, but nowadays it just looks like an anachronism. Especially SRAD GSXR's with Iridium double bubble screens.

Even silver mirror is a little bit iffy these days.

Black FTW. It'll never go out of fashion.

Imagine if you will, an SRAD GSXR with an iridium rainbow screen, pink anodised bar ends, pegs, yoke nut and a sprinkling of pink anodised bolts everywhere, a purple headlight cover. The rider, an early nineties white Arai with pink and yellow fluorescent spots with an iridium visor, white Akito leathers with Pink and Yellow patches, and white Akito storm trooper boots.

Nineties man strikes again!

It has to be black. Anything else is just tart.

Black, tart/tat factor aside, iridium visors are a nightmare to look after and are especially useless for longer summer rides.

Guess it should be black then. I'll make it Blackened, for the Blackout of the Black Hole Sun on a Black Night with the Black Star. It'll Fade to Black nicely when I Paint it Black. I'll be Back in Black like a Black Dog then!
