• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Good day!

I was thinking about a clear ballistics quality lense, like range glasses, but would like to know what others are wearing for eye protection when they ryde at night.

( If your'e wearing a full face all the time, I get it :thumbup: )

Thanks --Pete
 
I just found this place yesterday and the bifocal options caught my eye. I ordered a pair should have it tomorrow. There are all kinds, yellow for night time, HD etc. I don't know anything about this place but it was worth a check out. I have 2 others on wish list so if this one works out will get more.

Got the Bobsters Road Hogs on the way! Looked like a good option, and I like the versatility of swapping the lenses and adding the head strap if I want it.

Thanks all, great input!

I like yellow at night and on heavy overcast days. The frame choice if whatever fits your face and wallet best.
 
the Harley dealer near me was having a sale so I picked a pair of yellow tinted for day riding and a pair of clear ballistic style for night riding
 
Please let us know how they are when you get them. You did say youa re getting them with a precription in them, right? I'm real curious , I'm loooking for some new presription sunglasses for riding and this place sounds good. so i'm looking for a review. :doorag:

Mine won't be prescription, but I know they can be custom made with prescription lenses, as well as bi-focal, I believe.

I'll let you know fit and quality, but there were many reviews that rated them pretty well.

I just got the pair of the smoke bifocal sunglasses from bikershades.com and I'm liking it so far, look a feel good and the 2.00 lens is exactly what I needed. I have not gone out on a ride with it yet but so far so good.

I use 2.00 reading glasses only, not really a big deal don't have to have it when I ride or drive but nice to be able to read smaller text on the display or iPhone when riding.

The fit is good, wraps around head I don't feel the need for google type strap.

Just ordered a pair of prescription safety glasses from Sears Optical. They have Transitions lenses so they will double as riding sunglasses. Looking forward to them.:doorag:
 
Go to Harley

Wiley mellow yellow does the trick at night. Wiley sunglasses day. Best comfort level that I have experienced. No helmet required Florida.
 
Hey guys this is what I wear http://www.7eye.com/Taku-Glossy-Black/. These glasses are excellent for keeping the wind to a very minimum. I have the Photochromatic for riding on rainy cloudy days. Going to order the Polarized pair for the hot sunny days.

I go back and forth between prescription glasses and contacts...and found these last summer. http://www.drivewearlens.com

When I've got the contacts in, I just love them! When wearing the glasses, usually get by with the flip-down sun shield in my Nolan helmet, and the clear face shield depending on just what the temperature is.
Nice thing about the DriveWear glasses is that they're polarized AND photo-chromatic. Plus, they work inside vehicles with tinted glass, where Transitions won't. They don't get as dark as Transition lenses, but there's always trade-offs, I guess.
