who makes helmets with sun visors built in, i have no room to carry an extra visor

Get a motorcross helmet. That should do it.

I do believe there is a helmet that has multiple visors, but I don't recall the name brand...I'll see if I can locate more info...

Scorpion.

 

[VaBusa]

Well, I have yet to locate it...could have sworn I've seen info on one before, but so far all I'm finding is patent info on the web, so perhaps it's in the works...

Hopefully someone else will chime in soon...my Shoei X-11 is super easy to swap visors on, but it does require carrying the spare visor. I used to just ride with a clear visor and good sunglasses and sunblock. That's cheap and easy

Scorpion makes one it is the newest thing with an internal cheek airbag like the old rebock pump shoes it is the Scorpion EXO-1000. Pretty nice lid for $329 from what I have found.....just my 2cts

There is one company that makes a visor that changes from tinted to clear. Hang on, let me find the link.

My husband has been researching these.... I think he's in the market for a new one - ya think?

"Scorpion, EXO-1000 due out Feb. HJC FS-Max (out now, see Kneedraggers.com), HJC Symax 2 due out spring 2008, to name a few.

The scorpion and FS are full face (non flip-up)"

 

[VaBusa]

Yay! Thank you smart people...seems I've even lost my "Google" touch lately

Scorpion Make the EXO-1000 that has the flip down sun screen they also make a visor that turn dark when when it hits the light.

Two words- "Tank Bag"

Never leave home without it!

Barring that, I have seen riding jackets that have a visor pocket in them that form an arc shape around your side. Cool.

Yes scorpion has the transition shield that gets dark in the sun.

Not sure about the system it uses to adjust - outside temp. In FL (and other places) it can be in the mid 80s at night.

"The sunshift visor features a proprietary photochromic process which allows the visor to shift from clear to 60% tint in under 60 seconds depending on outside temperature."

Several months ago I saw these at a local shop.

DOT Certified
Modular (Flip up)
Integrated sunglass visor

Zamp Racing

These don't have the extra visor in them, but I am really starting to like them. Anybody here have a Simpson Super Bandit?
