Fog City Inserts

I have just bought anb Arai condor which fits like a dream but the visor seems to like fogging up at anything more than a slight weeze! Ive been looking at anti fog inserts and come accross these fog city inserts for £10 on flee-bay. Just wondered if anyone has had any experience with these inserts and could tell me if they will solve my fogging woes.....

yes & yes

They're alight. Prone to some diffraction at night and once they're in they're not the exactly removable. But for a tenner you could do worse.

Pinlock is where it's at.

Ok so ive bought the fogcity insert for a tenner but now im in doubt..... these pinlock inserts, are they visably better than fogcity ones or is it just personal preference?

As mentioned above, Fog City inserts are fit-and-forget, you can't easily take them out and re-fit them. They also suffer from diffraction, so riding at night with one in can be a bit rubbish. Pinlock doesn't seem to have this problem.

Other than the above, I had no problems with a Fog City insert, so fill yer boots and stop worrying so much!

okey dokey guess i am fretting a little bit

I bought a Fog City HyperOptik from HG for around £15.

It has a self-adhesive gasket around the edge that you can use to stick the insert to the visor, but I found this lost it's stickiness after a few weeks.

It does have cut outs for pins on the edges as well, so I went to my local bike shop, picked up some pins for free, drilled the visor and now I have the insert pinned in.

HAd the same issues. I brought a FOGCITY insert and a FOGGY nose piece. Still get some fogging but then I should have more sense than go out in -7, snow bound Britain in Feb.
