• 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.

What will they think of next

:shocked: If you just stick your head out into the wind, and turn it sideways a bit...


...The wind'll take all of the rain off of your faceshield anyway! :clap:
 
Let's face it, we all knew it was coming sooner or later.....better later...but what are ya gonna do? People will buy it, and as mentioned, the shield manufacturers will love it! I'll stick to turning my head a bit every now and then.
 
Like riding with a brick on the top of your helmet. Helmet balance, forget it, a lot of added weight on your neck, not for me. If the rain is bad enough to warrant a wiper. It will need to go faster and you probably shouldn't be riding anyway.

I've ridden in some pretty heavy downpours and never needed one of these. Fogging tends to be a bigger problem.
 
Now, if someone would come up with a decent wiper for the windshield I'd take a hard look at that. Do Spyders going to Japan have wipers? Goldwings do. Japanese law from what I've read requires them.
 
If they could just make a helmet with a fishbowl shield that would spin around your head fast enough that the centrifugal force would fling off the raindrops...
....Naaaaaa:hun:

Now that is one I didn't think of.... :rolleyes:
 
I tested one in 2000

All it did is distroy a windshield
and scratch a Lexan shield as well
