That's my plan as well.
Though I have heard they're quite noisy.

The V1 isnt that well ventilated I should add (although that's compared to an Arai with 7 vents on it) which means it gets a little stuffy in summer. It also means in winter, if it gets cold enough, you can get condensation. Hopefully this has been solved with the V2 though

I wouldn't say it's that noisy either, but then I've not compared that many lids.

I tend to wear earplugs for anything over 10 miles, so noise isn't a major factor for me unless it's really bad.

I've always thought it a shame you can't "test ride" helmets for a week (obvious why you shouldn't- same reason as 2nd hand helmets ), try them in the wet, see what the noise is like, wind chill on the motorway, etc.

The anti-fog is great but the blue tint was not really up to the low sun today. Much better than having nothing but not as good as a proper tint, I reckon.

Still overall product is good.

I hadn't realised until today just how well it works AND how useful the dark inner visor is. I'm having to use my son's crappy £50 "special" whilst mine's painted and when the sun hit me this morning, I felt someone had glued my eyelids open in a desert

I've just bought the clear Fogcity.

Was advised by a mate in work that the ones that change colour aren't that good, as they tend to take ages getting back to normal clear colour when you come out of tunnels or the light changes suddenly ???
(Take that as it comes).
Paid 10 quid for this clear one anyway, alsobeen told to take care putting it on, as you only have 1 go at it, cos the sticky bits are really sticky..

Should be in the post tomorrow.
