In the season of squashed flies, what are we all using to move the buggers off our visors....especially whilst out and about?
Visor Wipes?

I always carry a damp piece of kitchen roll, in a doggy poo sack.... Works for me

I use the V2 Sponge from Visor Vision, best thing I have used for cleaning my visor in 36 years of bike riding.

Damp kitchen roll for me, open it out and let it rest on the visor for about 10 mins. quick rub and all the flies disappear.
If you worried about falling off your bike, you'd never get on.

I usually don't need to wipe while out but I use wet tissue, kitchen roll is best because it doesn't fall apart easily
![]() Sometimes use a baby wipe though if I have some really determined flies.

I just use cheap screen wipes (keep a pack under the seat). Ive never had any problems with hazing or yellowing on plastic visors either. Something like this:

never mind the visor...........
riding with the visor up, I've had some whoppers hit me in the chops and if I wasn't wearing shades the buggers would've taken me eyes out if they'd have hit me in the eye visor down in hot weather aint good but sometimes necessary :'(

Another user of the mighty v wipe
But i always forget to clean it out and it stinks. A packet of baby wipes in my tank bag is ideal, cheap as chips, always fresh, can be used to clean hands and face after a long ride or a greasy snack on the road....plus you can use them on the visor.

I don't do rain or threat there of. dry rider only with no shame.

I carry a small squirt bottle of visor cleaner and some tissues.
When I stop, a quick spray, wait for it to work for a minute or so, then wipe off. Job done.

Wet Jiffy cloth in a resealable bag, keeps wet all week, dry one wrapped around the outside, usually goes in t/bag side pocket or jacket pocket. Must've hit a bee today - splat! covered half the feckin visor, so the Jiffys came in handy.

+1 for KFC wipes, also have pocket size spay bottle of screen wash and pack tissues in my bag, but there always couple KFC wipes in jacket
