Could this finally be a solution to rain

[Frosties]

Found this on Visordown - looks good, reviews will tell i suppose. Don't forget the video link on the site

be good if it works

Bit weird they didn't show you it working from the outside in the video?

With the way it attaches, it looks like it would break the seal at the top of the visor and allow rain to seep down the inside of the visor from the top... that would somewhat defeat the entire purpose of having one

I wonder its "rest " position is because if it right down the middle I see that as a problem. Also can you actually still open the visor with it on.

[color=rgb(51, 51, 51)]"...Rain will not enter inside the helmet as Rainpal's clips are only 1mm in thickness therefore will not compromise the rubber seal around the helmet's viewable rim..."[/color]

[color=rgb(51, 51, 51)]I[/color]f you believe that, i reckon it'll be shite personally.

Personally, my solution to rain is sunshine in an otherwise clear, blue sky. But whatever turns you on  :lol

What's wrong with just moving your head from side to side , works for me. The biggest pain in the rain is condensation on the inside of the visor, okay I know the twin lock system is not bad but if you wear glasses condensation is more of a pain than the actual rain.

been riding in rain for the last 30 odd years and no problems.

I like that  probably will get wireless one

Simply doesn't do a thing with Arai visors, water droplets stick like oil on your visor, and i've tried a few.
You could spin your head like Linda Blair in The Exorcist but the rain just stays put.
I'll stick with my Vee Wipe, there's no chance of that breaking down, and even if it did i carry a spare in the top box.


The ProGrip insert i have stuck inside my visor tends to be fine with condensation though when i wear glasses for night riding, i've never had any real issues at all.
Still got a brand new 'clear' one for sale if anyone wants it, i bought the wrong one by mistake, this one has cut outs for a pinlock visor but is no good for an Arai visor with air vents. Great for night riding too, it reduces headlight glare. £14 delivered.

Same issue with my Shoei GT air visor and all polishes/snake oils tried.


Vee wipe works well for me and the ProGrip insert is way better than any pinlock. Need a foggy respro with a Pinlock.

Ah i have the same helmet and i am really unimpressed with the pin lock insert, took ages to get to it to seal properly and now just mists up on the inside of the insert. Would Darrsi's thing work on our helmet?

[Frosties]

The best move I made with my Shoei was to ditch the chin curtain. Was better with it removed but still misted when raining - hence the Foggy Respro. No issue now apart from a chilly blast when its -2 Deg C.

My Gerbing gloves have a wiper blade on the left thumb, but I've found that, especially when combined with NikWax Visor spray, it tends to cause scratches on the visor especially when theres lots of salty road spray

Has anyone tried the VisorCat system and could post a review of it?

Pete Dolphin "At long last. Brilliant"

Mikael Buzare "Simply brillant, go ahead. So tired to wipe my screen with my gloves"

Mike O'Donovan "this is a brilliant invention, definitely need one of them, i ride in Ireland where we get summer for 15 mins each year, the rest is just rain, it`ll make commuting so much safer, how soon can i expect delivery?"

Mick McEvoy Hi, I live in Scotland the wettest part of the UK make one with a Saltire and I will be your head salesperson. I love it

John Hargrave "Email sent ...wNt one so bad ...brilliant ...about time"

Chris Sixsmith "whens the launch?"

BJ Wrigley "Great idea"

Jason Hardman "Amazing idea want one"

David Ames " I belong to CMA ( Christian Motorcyclists Association ) We are world wide and I can just imagine How many of these you could sell just by word of mouth and show and tell among us"

Jenny Stickells "About time some one came up with this well done"

Michal Majkel "Need you in the UK"

Wouter Agsteribbe "Great idea!
Rain on the visor is bad for vision, true. The wiper will help against that. Neat!"

Every rider should have the right if they choose to have near perfect vision in the rain.

Rainpal provides more safety than any other visor accessory, crystal clear vision in the rain and will ship globally.

At £30 it's got to be worth a try.
I've got a Vee Wipe that's starting to split  after a year of use, so I'll give this a go.


Update: Looks like they're out of stock so I've registered my interest for when they start producing again.

An here was me thinking that Sun was a cure for rain --silly me.
