  • It doesn't take long for the factory fog coating to wear off of a helmet and it to start fogging over. In this video I will show you an easy and cheap way to restore the anti fogging properties of the visor. This is how to keep a motorcycle helmet from fogging over.

      Thanks for watching and commenting. I am glad it helped. What do you ride? Hopefully you are still able to ride wherever you are. It is cold here in Missouri, but as long as there is no ice I still ride. Ride safe and have fun, and if you haven't already done so, I would appreciate it if you would subscribe.

    We use a 12mm garden irrigation hose elbow, heated & flatten at one end to make mouth piece & a longer nose exiting my helmet. works mint.. no one can tell when wearing a full face helmet.
    And use nose plugs or nose clips used for swimming stops you breathing out your nose.

    will this work for cold weather fog?

    • @themotorcyclegene
      @themotorcyclegene  10 месяцев назад

      It works for cold weather for for a while but needs to be re done after a day or two, and it helps if the visor is open a crack. It probably depends on the helmet as well because if there is no airflow it will likely still fog a little.

    Can I use rainX anti fog or is it going to damage my visor?

    • @Teckno77
      @Teckno77 Год назад +4

      You have to use the rainX that's designed for pvc instead of normal glass one. But tbh I use it and I think it's a bit shit not sure how well its supposed to work but I still have rain on my visor even immediately after applying it.

  • @meuconmyeuc1337
    @meuconmyeuc1337 2 года назад +1

    Why doesn't this work when I do it. I lather with Gillette. let sit. Buff off with soft cloth. Blow hot air and visor fogs up more than before.
    WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?
    I have done this 3 times now and each time yields the same results. More fog that lingers longer.

    • @themotorcyclegene
      @themotorcyclegene  2 года назад

      Without actually seeing what you are doing I can't say for sure, but there is some possibility it is the type of shaving cream you are using. Other than than I don't have any idea why it isn't working as it always works for me for a few days after I do it.

    • @themotorcyclegene
      @themotorcyclegene  10 месяцев назад

      I doubt the toilet paper was the cause. It could be the shaving cream or it could be that your helmet simply has no airflow and it will fog regardless, but I am not sure.
