Visor advice..

[rach4444]

Hi all,
I need some advice on a tinted visor for my Box Wired Helmet.
I bought a stick on one, but can see more of my own reflection rather than the road.

Can anyone advise where I can buy a replacement tinted visor. Ive looked around the Internet but am not sure whats legal or not.

Thanks.
Rachel

Just get a race one and make sure you don't wear it at night - the police do turn a blind eye to it in daylight times - I've never been pulled just for my visor

Thanks for the advice.

Ill go for it, but was a bit scared due to the fact Ive already got 9 points on my licence and cant afford to be pulled over for any trivial reason.

The points are for speeding (car) not anything shameful....

I have found a nice helmet which has a tinted inner visor... Anyone have any thoughts? Do you recommend?

Thanks again.

Give us a clue to the helmet and I'll tell you what I think Personally i don't like them if it's what i'm thinking of but I could be thinking along the wrong lines

But black visor if you were unlucky enough to get caught isn't an endorsable penalty just a fine iirc

Thanks, attached is a photo of the helmet.
Let me know what you think.

I don’t think they can give you points for wearing a dark visor, only fine you

9 points. Your not related to Andrew are you?

It was what I was thinking of - I do know a few people that swear by that style (not that I know that make) Firstly I would check the safety rating on it and then ensure you try it on. As helmets are funny things - I can wear Arai, Suomy and AGV but not shoei because of the internal shape. Also a couple of others have commened on it being a bit claustrophobic with the 2nd visor down

Davey’s advice is the best, try on as many crash hats as possible and choose the most comfy and see if you get on with the internal visor.

I am currently using a Caberg Justissimo GT with a flip up front and internal sun visor (30 quid on eBay).

As it is a flip up lid you get a lot more wind noise, I get on well with the internal sun visor.
