Aviator goggles for motorcycle use

[bj229r]

There's a line somewhere between safety and comfort...not real sure where it is, but if safety is paramount, riding a bike is probably not something you want to do in the first place. As for me, wearing a space-helmet is akin to riding in a car...really defeats the whole purpose, IMO

I just picked up a pair of these nothing like the Goggle's you posted but for 22 bucks on ebay they were worth it for me, the Lense's also change during the day into night so you do not have to carry a pair of dark shade's and clear's. Also they are foam lined on the inside and Anti-Fog with the vent's up top.

here is a photo and the link where I got them.

They work great with half helmet or no helmet

C'mon up here Del. Sunglasses and nothing more if you like. Well, helmet wise at least......
I only wore my helmet while needing to cross into Vermont, or on the highway. At least with my street bikes. Off road, always, but always wore an open face.
Good luck, I do like the looks of those. I do agree on the scarf breeches and sidecar that needs to go with them too.

I've seen far too many 'organ donors', or motorcycle riders that didn't wear a helmet. I will always use a helmet, I'd like to keep the little brains I have in my head.

Del I got plowed by a drunk 20 mumble mumble years ago. The reason I am here is full face helmet. I have a dot head shell that I use to ride to work and back, but the ride is 95 percent on a military installation. If on the highway or around town I go full. I wear the Wiley x sunglasses that have a goggle strap with my shell   I have lost sunglasses looking behind me and having them sucked off my face.

I don't think your brain will care much when I'll swing a 2x6 in your face. Because you are smart enough to understand that's what will happen to you when you'll go flying somewhere after a crash. But since you insist of dying in the name of cool, I'm sure you already checked bikebandit.com for what you are looking for.

Time to freshen up the air in the bubble I think....

Just kidding, but really everything is dangerous in it's own way.

Hey, I think that was another JT movie ref......

I have a RF1100 by Shoei now, it has 7 vents but my head still sweats like a Rosie O'Donald at a buffet. I'm looking at a 1/2 or even 3/4 helmet that gives me a lot better ventilation. Anything above 80 degrees it get uncomfortable, anything above 90 degrees and I get dizzy from the heat within a few minutes.

I can't wear all the gear when I'm commuting to and from work; for starters, I can't wear jeans to work very often and I need to look semi-presentable (not a head full of sweaty hair) when I arrive. Now that I'm doing some consulting work, it is even more important.

 Del,you could always shave your head,wouldn't suffer helmet head then!   

   I've been unfortunate to crash a couple times,never my fault, but I heard the same thing almost every time"I never saw the bike". For some reason car drivers look at motorcycles as bicycles and expect you to get out of the way!

   Too many of my friends have 1 leg shorter than the other because they all did the same thing,stand on the rear brake when they saw an accident coming,this almost always cause the bike to slide sideways and the riders leg takes the impact.

  Over the years I took several riding courses,ambitions to be a racers but I could never seem to pull it off. Every course basically said the same thing,if your going to collide,make sure you hit with the front tire!


   Ride safe and be seen!
