Is there a best way to prevent "fog" from building up on the inside shield of the helmet. What about an anti-fog spray? Do any work better than others? Glasses also seem to "fog". Help with any suggestions. Thanks.

Yankee361, If you want to stop your eye glasses from fogging the only fool proff way that I have found is a NO-FOG face mask, maybe a little pain to put on and take off, but it works!!

I've heard that people with glasses like SkiDoo's modular helmet as well

I agree with mr670,with one exception motocross helmet and goggles will work best.I have glasses and the mod does nothing to prevent them from fogging up.the moisture from my breate comes right up behind the mask and fogs my glasses,I have tried everything to prevent this with my modular with no success.

I wear glasses and have the doo modular helmet, it's the way to go. If that's out of your price range a mask such as this will work, but is kind of a pain.

Dooman: if your glasses are fogging with the mod. there must be something not sealing on yours, mine has no breath inside the hemet it all exits outside. I always also make sure I use those absorbant pads otherwise the mask gets too mush water in it.

No, I just don't have that problem, nor do any of my friends with mod. helmets. maybe yours has some sort of defect or something. Or maybe your particular psysiology won't allow you to get a tight seal on the mask.

I give an un biased opinion and it is factual as are all my posts.it was the I'm with stupid sign that got me.ask anyone who has ridden with me and they will tell you I wear contacts now ,after spending 300 bucks for this miracle helmet,I would hate for another to do the same.
