    This is how it has bee explained to me…

    "Basically the visor insert is constructed out of the same vinyl film they use to create the advertising you commonly see on bus, car, and shop windows. You know the type that allows you to see through the window from the inside, but allows the advertising to be clearly visible from the outside. Example of this is below.

    It is essentially a thin film with tiny perforated holes punched in its surface to the ratio of 50% material to 50% hole area. The film is black on the helmet inside surface, and because the interior of the helmet is dark anyway, and you are so close to the film your eyes cant focus on the film itself and so see the outside image instead. Gives a tinted visor type view.

    This is attached to a flexible transparent sheeting which is mounted to the inside of the visor with `Velcro` type fasteners for easy fitment and removal. This also stops any contamination by dirt/water into the perforations which would obscure vision. Hopefully the pictures below of my helmet make this clearer."

    Don’t do it Jeff.

    As a biker I have a healthy disrespect for a lot of traffic law. Tinted visors are one thing, but that is so dangerous it doesn’t bear thinking about. 👿
