Maybe this is where the _osser but comes in, but did you know :eek: ...

I have real problems with low sun in the morning heading directly into it on my commute. Sunglasses don't eliminate top light so I was looking for something to stick on the outside of the helmet when Liddle did it again with a 78p kids balaclava with peak.

Its the best helmet liner in the world , AND the peak is perfect cresent to block the sun! It doesn't cause visor problems on a Shoei.

Sorted!! :D
 
Doesn`t the bobble on the top of it make yer helmet uncomfortable.....? :D :D

So ... youve stuck a wooly balaclava .... with a peak, and a bobble, over your helmet.

:jes :jes :jes

No wonder folk think we're strange.

Think of all the crashes you will cause when people cant see where they are going because tears of laughter have blinded them.
 
:D :D :D :D

Note to self - if encounter dude on GS with balaclava over helmet - ride slowly away :D

Serious problem though... I tape up the top half of my visor with black insulating tape. Doesn't affect field of vision, apart from upwards of course, where there isn't that many vehicules!
 
Yep I was right..... what a _osser I am!

Still, the replies have cheered me up - thanks :beerjug:

Now for the ride home - the balaclava thing gets better as I simply turn it round to give improved night vision when I am riding! :dabone

I am gonna try a baseball hat under the lid for the summer!
 
Good idea with the baseball cap in summer :D I also wear a XXXL Hoodie over my jacket with the hood over my helmet. :D People laugh but am I bovvered, am I, am I..............
 
....wearing fekkin hats over your helmet - I really have heard it all now. What about a nice panama for the summer:)

I would just like to say that I have never been near The Slow Grangers Helmet :eek:

Personally I just put tape across the top of my visor about 1/2 an inch. :helmet
 
Thanks Wildbeeste, I can confirm what Bobble says - and this is a family site so no pics dabone , but I do have a set of soiled socks I can sell you.......... : :dj
