Just a comment about dark visors, maybe someone can correct me if it is wrong. I read this in one of the mainstream bike mags years ago, sunglasses are polarized, block UV rays. Dark Visors do not. They have the effect of causing your pupils to dilate and therefore allowing more damaging UV into your eye than using a clear visor and sunglasses. I'm a Shoei fan myself but my god are they getting expensive, thanks for the review of the HJC..
Makes sense, a dark visor wouldn't be polarised, as folks who wear spectacles could have polarised lenses. That said, UV exposure while wearing a helmet isn't really a worry to me to be honest. Just wearing a helmet would cut down some UV, due to the shade it gives around your face. Can't beat a Shoei, but yes they are getting so expensive. I was looking over a mates carbon Shark helmet today and that looked very well made too.
Love my shaded visors Never going to change

Echo audio.
The lapel mic turned itself off, didn't know until editing the vid, no time to re shoot this vid, sound isn't too bad.
