only thing i can add to this is that there's nothing worse than a dirty visor, and nothing better than a clean one |

I've never been advised visor up or down but what I have been told by my instructor is that if you have a flip front helmet (you know, the chin guard, visor and all flip up top) then it is illegal to ride with this open... kinda contradictory if it is legal to ride with a face open style helmet. ____________________ Peat

I had a Caberg J1 Plus and rode passed loads of police cars with the whole chainbar up!
Not one of them battered an eye lid.

There are times when having your visor down is not a good thing, for example it's steaming up. It's better to get a wet face than it is to not be able to see anything.
I wear contact lenses and tend to always close my lid if i'm going over about 30 as my eyes dry out and everything goes blurry. Plus, after looking at my visor today, its covered in bugs and i'd rather have them on the outside than turning up at a job application with greenfly wings sticking out between my teeth.

When riding through town or in traffic I tend to have my visor up but anything over about 15mph I put it down as it really kills when you get flies hit you in the face!
Its personal preference though, some people prefer riding with their visor down all the time, I don't usually mind because my helmet has vents so I can breathe ok. ____________________ Bikes: Honda CBR250R | Honda ST70 |
