Well, due to the enormous size of my head, big nose and sunken in eye sockets, I am thinking of going to goggles instead of trying every pair of sunglasses I can find. There was a cheap pair of $10 glasses at an HD dealer that worked Ok, they had the foam around the lenses and worked OK. Since then I have not found a pair that fit the same, so I keep having to buy the same glasses just to replace the arms, because they break... they are cheap. I bought a pair of Panoptx for around $160 but ended up giving them to my Indy because they just didn't work right. Now I have a Bagger, and that helped but still, I get stuff in my eyes.

So I am thinking of sporting some goggles. A helmet is out of the question for two reasons. One reason is I hate wearing them and if I did find one that fit and was comfortable I would look like the great Gazoo from the Flintstones.

So which one do you use?

 

Wish I had some info for you but I don't. Just posting to tell you what you probably already know...brace yourself for some jabs.

 

well since my head is realtively normal, I just use my regular glasses (and have a windshield) I get an occaisional ash from my cig in my eye, Theo (ld lady) loves her goggles, keeps everything, including her stray hairs out of her eyes/ (Personally I'd rather be a live great gazoo, then a dead dum dum, and I'm sure I'll get shtt for that statement, but I call a duck a duck)

 

SHHHHHHH! C'mon, it's more fun when they ain't expecting it!

 

I think it's safe to say EVERYONE on this forum has a weird shaped head. That's why we ride Harley's! There's probably some deep hidden primordial reason for thick skulls and HD's. Hehehe!

P.S. - love the reference to the Great Gazoo! I used to love that little fella'. What a bizzare character to write into a cartoon about a stone aged family. Wanna bet the writers were tripping on something a bit more hardcore than Stoney Beer when they thought up that story-line!?

 

Ahh, perhaps it's extra space for the Harley gland?

 

I can relate to your big heed, as my local dealer expressed in a light hearted fashion my head size equates to a silverback
And here we have no choice but to wear helmets..

 

My dealer didnt have one that fit me... It took me two weeks to find one.lol

 

howdy, Great Gazoo here.
I can relate to the big head - but sunken eyes and big nose??

sounds like a full-face with a tinted shield might be a good idea.

...you might even wear it on your bike as well, for added safety! :icon _clapclap:

(sorry - i had to)

 

By the self description you provided, I'd strongly suggest a brown paper sack with two holes cut in it for your eyes. Seriously, Googles are fine. You can't go wrong there.
