Clear. Tried a dark visor, but found it too dark, especially on longer trips. Great for short whizzes though.

Fully mirrored,
I have 2 lids, if im out during the day i always wear mirrored, if im out at night or when it gets dark i take the one with the clear visor (wear glasses so it makes sense!)

Mostly use a dark one but carry a clear one for after dark and for when it rains heavily.

Dark during the day - it's very bright and sunny here! Clear at dusk, at night and in poor conditions.

I was actually out the other day in bright sunshine with the clear visor and the sun damn near blinded me - it really was dangerous.

Of course I look way more cool with the dark one too! laugh

Today is a lovely black Arai RX7 with a reasonably blackish visor and have the clear visor in my bag.

Yesterday was a lovely yellow Edwards Arai RX7 with an iridium visor and clear visor in bag.

Tomorrow may be Nolan N94 Stoner with black visor with clear visor just in case.

Choice is good smile

Got two Shoei visors - one which is clear, one with a road legal light tint (probably not more than 10% I reckon).

Use the clear one unless it's sunny.

Got a clear and midnight black, only use the dark one if it's a properly blinding sunny day. Even then it makes everything look overcast so I get depressed when I ride about.

But it looks so cool! frown

Dark visor on my Arai Alan Cathcart replica.
I also have a clear one but have never used it as i only ride in fairweather. wink

I also own a mint white Simpson Bandit with black visor. I never wear this as i bought it in 1989! Kept for my Kawasaki KR-1, 'hooning' memories. cloud9
Those were the days. frown
