Very good. Mine came with my AGV lid and often I see the rest of the visor is fogged.

I've never had a problem with them as long as they are installed correctly. I won't ride with out one as I'm a heavy breather. :)

Provided it is a decent quality product (pin lock and visor) there brilliant.

Try and buy a cheap one and can have nothing but problems.

Have a reactalight one on one of my lids and it's great, darkens enoughfor bright sun and clear for night riding. Plus you dont need to carry clear visor if you have a dark one fitted. :-bd

That's interesting, could be the heating effect of the darker plastic absorbing more of light.

Thinking I might try removing mine. Can't fault it for stopping condensation but I'm sure it effects my visual clarity. Or it could be the 40's catching up with me.
