The key to perfect vision

For those of you who ride in unstable weather, where yoiu alternate bwetween sunshine and clouds, or ride in places where there are alot of shadows (cities, forests), if you use a regular visor you eyes will have to adjust very quickly to the change. Of course there are solutions to this, why not wear your sunglasses all the time or that tinted visor which is fine until it gets dark and you miss that pot hole or animal on the road. Although atleast you can raise that sun visor but that also entails removing your hands from the bars.

These also form a more practical purpose as an everyday visor if you for instance ride to work in the morning and itsdark and ride home in afternoon in sunlight where you would need multiple visors or have to bring sunglasses, also if you are going on long trips where you will be riding all day through different weather conditions ore don't need the hassle of bringing additional accesories this is probably something to look into.

The other option is an accesory which will help you acheive a more relaxing motorcyle ride, not requiring you to do any work, that is the Photochromic Visors. these are visor that are placed onto (from the inside) your normal visor, and when the sun hits them they turn darker, and when sun goes away they are clear. This isn't a new technology have have been around in prescription glasses for decades.

Why is this interesting now? until now it usually took a standard Photochromic visor about 60 seconds to change which can feel like an eternity on a bike, now Maric Performance, a company that has been supplying anti-fog inserts for ages now, have a new product calledHyper Optiks. Hyper Optiks are photochromic inserts that change state within 4 seconds! The only thing that will beat that are electronically controlled inserts (like the tested Raleri -click here to read the test).
