Dodgey Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 Just tested out my car with aan aero/mini screen on and it's great, though regular sunglasses just are no good - too much wind gets round them. What glasses/goggles do you recommend for a decent "seal". I've driven with a lid on too, and I don't like it, not for lane blatting - I loose all sensation of what speed I'm doing. Quote

TAFKARM Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 Which reminds me, I'm going to dig out my two pairs and flog them in the new year. I only wear a helmet these days. Quote
SootySport Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 Dixons for me as well. Great for interchanging the lenses and a choice of normal spectacle arms or elastic ones. I shelled out for the photochromatic lenses and they are great, the only lenses you need winter or summer. Quote
Paul Hurdsfield - Joint Manchester AO Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 Yep former westy owner Mike Dixon understands 'our' needs. Quote
CraigHew Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 I think I paid less than £15 for a pair of quad goggles. I got them with yellow tint and the results are great. I found I couldn't drive safely with my specs on, because as soon as you turn your head at speed, they move all over the place. I thought they'd come off sooner or later. The goggles fit over my specs easily and make the driving experience what it should be free from spec-loss worry. I too wouldn't wear a lid although I have a pristine AGV finished in Ducati red which colour matches my Westie. Quote
Nizztos Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 Are there goggles like the Dixons which will accept prescription lenses? I don't care for contact lenses and there is no way to fit regular glasses under those type of goggles [edit] Never mind. A further look showed that there are indeed versions that will accept prescriptions. Quote
CrisisWolf Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 I use sunglasses - I have Oakleys which wrap around a fair bit so don't have wind issues. But I maybe in the market for some clear ones for night/dusk driving. Quote

I have prescription lenses and reactolite, so no need to keep changing so suit the sunlight. In fact there is a picture of me wearing mine in the Lancshire report of the latest Westfield World. Quote
Onliest Smeg David Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 I have Dixon, great value. Addidas climacool are nice but expensive. Quote
