It should actually be its own thread, it's that nice.

Glad you got the smoked shield with that lid. I had a "shieldsak" ( http://www.shieldsak.com/ )for carrying my extra visor with me. Basically a sling that held the extra shields. Strapped on the shoulder and never really knew it was there when riding. Only made the mistake once of going out without the clear shield. Stayed out later than I intended and had fun trying to ride home in the dark with that dark smoked visor. Had to have the shield up most of the time. Never made that mistake again.

I created a thread about it. Not sure if it's exactly what you guys use or not, but I liked the shieldsak that I had.

Not that it matters now...but Scorpions mirrored shield isn't anti-fog like the rest of their shields.

Good choice NTS. Fog free clear and DK Smoke are all I've ever needed. And screw using a ball sack to carry it around, or whatever its called, just stuff the one you aren't using into a n old sock, keeps it scratch free and clean, whether you carry it in a tank bag or something, or stick it around your side inside your jacket.

actually im glad you said something about which helmet i was getting, cause i was really just opting for the mirrored lens because i wanted one... in retrospect i didnt even try to imagine how it would look on the lid.

dark smoke it is.

2 Cents but doesn't Scorpion offer a photochromatic shield?

Yeah. The tinted in the sun, clear in no sun thing, right? Yeah, they do.

I thought so...I also like the"high visibility" shields from HJC,Arai,Shoei,etc. They are just dark enough to be useful in the day and just light enough that you can see at night.
