Fogging is something most riders just put up with — cracking the visor, wiping it, trying to manage it on the fly. But it’s more than an annoyance; it’s a visibility problem, and visibility is safety. What many riders don’t realize is that there are real solutions, not myths or quick roadside fixes, but tools and technologies that actually work when you plan ahead. In this episode, we look at why fogging happens, why helmets struggle with it, and what you can do to prevent it. You’ll hear from Jason Eite of VISIN about a heated visor system based on aerospace technology, and from Clinton Smout about the practical approaches riders use every day. If you ride in weather — and eventually we all do — this is one topic that can make your ride safer and far less stressful.
VISIN is a heated visor insert, developed by Jason Eite – a passionate motorcyclist who’s tackled incredible long-distance rides across Africa, Canada, and the US.
Clinton Smout is based in Ontario, Canada. He’s been a motorcycle instructor for most of his adult life, is the chief instructor at SMART Adventures and is a certified BMW Off-road instructor.
