If you don't care about the money try some aviator goggles. Sporty's Pilot Shop has them for about $50. They're made for biplane pilots who fly open cockpit airplanes with their head stuck up in the wind like a big ole airdale puppy. Sporty's web site is thier name. The look is kind of retro.

I had lasik also, tried different glasses. best ones for me are harley profile glasses/goggles. just tighten the strap for a perfect fit. whatever you buy do not buy the wiley transition lenses-they don't darken at all. customer service is non-existent.

I use dirt bike goggles eg" Scott, Fox etc at night but they wont work w/some half style helmets

the cheap "goggles" sold at many bike shops arent designed to wear the strap over the helmet and wearing them under is a nuisance when stopping for gas etc

for whatever reason wind leaks make me cry, literally! cant stand tearing up in traffic

Thanks all for the suggestions. Wow! Apologies for my lateness, I didn't have a chance to get on the 'puter today. Yall are a pretty cool bunch.

I'm seeing a pretty general consensus about 3 or 4 different brands and I was looking at avaitor goggles last night online. Anyway, you folks gave me a good place to start. Thanks.

Oh, and Midnight, don't think I haven't thought about it. haha

Thanks again!
