Sorry, none of my helmets have visors. But I really like my Speed and Strength 1310. Great ventilation and quiet too. Came with clear and dark shields and price was great.
Do you have to pick the bugs off your face that embedded there, Iv'e got nailed by some BIGG bugs on the face shield , hit like a rock .

There’s a BIG difference in a visor and a shield.
A visor is mounted above the eyes, a shield is what you look through.

My mistake
I used the word visor instead of shield
Yes there is a big difference

I purchased a Schuberth C3 Pro in satin black. The local BMW dealer has discontinued selling Schuberth so I got it for $300, otherwise I would of gone with a HJC modular.

I'm using a HJC modular but it's a winter helmet, it has less wind noise than my other two.
I bought this one new at the first of the summer and don't like the wind noise inside it , it looks good with the Ryker but sucks for wind noise.
Was going to show a pic of it but it tells me that file size is to big , got to figure a way to down size it

I'm sporting the Icon Airflite Rubatone Helmet with the red mirrored shield.

Very Nice!

I've had alot of helmets over the years, HJC (modular), Bell (skid lid with visor and removable neck liner, Fulmer (full face) love this helmet, Gmax (modular with built in break lights) when I used this helmet I put in a 3 way toogle switch, forward was my helmet 1 up riding, center off, and back was to wife's helmet 2 up riding or her riding by herself.
