Go for a black visor. Cool and understated, be like and look like The Stig off Top Gear

Remember to carry a clear one with you though

of course, usual caveats of weather and memory :P

Sarah, be careful if you get an iridium visor. The finish rubs off very fast indeed. Anyway, black is the new black isn't it

I've got a super snazzy Caberg helmet. It has a second, dark visor built-in which is operated by a lever behind the left hand side visor rotation point. I can go from being a normal, well adjusted rider, to being the coolest thing on two wheels at the flick of a switch.

It's also matt black (like the bike's frame and my jacket) and has super snazzy matt silver decal inserts. It's also called a V-2. Now beat that for authenticity.

My summer leather jacket matches the bike (same colour as yours) and the jacket was bought way before I even considered the SV!

Does that count??

Me gots that one too although with grey graphics. The problem I find is that the dark inner visor is not nearly dark enough when it is sunny. I really want a full dark visor but can't find anywhere that sells them despite the fact that the Caberg V-2 has a super snazzy (good word that) quick release system for the main visor. Might HAVE to go buy a nice Arai!

If the weathers half-decent count me in.

I'm talking about the rideout, not helmets.
