Anyone else wear them? If so, do you only wear you visor at high speeds? It just looks like a crazy acid trip if you have it down.

yea mine are polarized and i wouldnt even think of wearing them under my helmet... i know a guy who crashed and his glasses broke a few bones in the side of his face by his eye socket...

I just sport a dark tint during the day and night...

i have rocked polarized sun glasses for years under my lid. yea, its kinda funny to check out the inside/reflection it gives off. haha. i have my visor up if im just going around on the streets or somewhere where i aint going to get much above 40-50. but if im going to be hauling ass or playing on the freeway, then thevisor is down.

Ya I think your talking about the same person I know and because of that I would not wear sunglasses under my helmet.

What do people do that have to wear normal glasses then. I would just wear your glasses, I always did. Unless your one of these guys that crashes alot. Remember you'll have a little bit bigger of a blind spot.

done it before, never really bothered me, you just look past it but i realy tend not to just because it can bend and stress the arms of the glasses.

Polarized glasses are only an issue if your visor has a fog coating on the inside.

I have run a Shoei clear visor with polarized glasses with no issue.

i wear my prescription glasses under the lid they have the transition coating that makes em dark in the day and clear at night, works out pretty good
