Motorcyclists Who Wear Specs.


Recommended Posts

How can you wear specs when you are riding a motorbike with a full face helmet?

I ask because I am damaging my sunglasses by wearing them with my full face helmet if you see what I mean.

What about guys who wear normal specs all the time? How can you wear your specs without damaging them by squeezing them in to fit your ears?

2 ways, take off specs first the put on the full face helmet then insert the specs  yes can be a bit of a pain.

 

Or get a "flip face" helmet  flip up the chin guard bit whist fully wearing specs  insert head whilst gently expanding the 2 side ear lobes  just a bit  so they don't interfere with your ears/spectacles then flip down the chin guard bit  they cost a bit more but I like them.  also good to open chin guard at the traffic light for more ventilation   full face and open face in one go.

Thanks, but too much bother for just wearing sunglasses.

Get a helmet with integrated  "sun visor"  no need for sunglasses

my flip face Real Orbit, Cosmos   has built in sun visor  works really well

flip on /off from a switch on the side of the helmet.
