likestojump 3 #2 June 1, 2014 Your Harley needs goggles ? Are goggles that are needed for Harleys compatible with other brand scooters ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

airtwardo 7 #7 June 1, 2014 ipappnasei how about we stop making fun of foreigners and actually help out :C Only way to really tell is to try them on and see how they fit, if there is a decent seal around your face. Everybody has a little different noggin geometry so what may work for me may not be so good for you. ~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gowlerk 2,216 #8 June 1, 2014 OK, in my opinion they would probably work well. Freefall and riding at high speed present similar needs in goggles. By filters I'm assuming you are asking about how dark they should be. If you are a student, your instructor would like to see your eyes. Other than that it would be your preference. I wear prescription glasses and if I still had a bike I would probably like these for riding. For jumping I just use ordinary glasses with a strap to make sure they stay in place, but few people would tolerate that much wind in their eyes. I still say Harleys are overrated and overpriced as well.Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

Whats good about harley is the value retention over years. Also its about living the dream :P same goes for GoPro. They arent really the best and they are overpriced but it just feels right.

Dokeman 0 #11 June 1, 2014 clear flexible thin plastic goggles are usually required for student jumps. First, so the instructors can see your eyes. Second, if you have a rough landing, you don't want broken shards of plastic/glass in you eyes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BIGUN 1,323 #12 June 4, 2014 SORZ goggles for both One clear One Amber One dark & polarized. They're cheaper at the local motorcycle (Not Harley) shop. $14.95 pair. Some don't like the foam around the lens, but I'm both hard on goggles and have a propensity for laying them down or letting them walk off (they do this on their own), so I pretty much am replacing one of them a month. So, cheap and effective works for me.Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
