Half Shell and sunglasses?

[rmodel65]

so right now ive only got a half shell helmet from my old harley(let a buddy borrow my full face and havent gotten it back) what are some of the best sun glasses in your opinion for riding?? ive got a cheap pair of non tinted glasses im wearing now but want to get something better suited for day time riding

I personally would suggest getting an extra full face helmet for fairly cheap esp. this time a yr, you can get a gmax or hjc for like $100 bucks and protect that chin!

Picked this up last week from a local shop for $275 with a light smoke screen.
Nice helmet with a fair price.

1/2 helmets are almost useless. They fail to protect the the parts of your head that will most likely be in contact with the ground or an object. Your face and the back of your head. If you can't wait for your helmet go to a pep boys and pick up a lid till you can get your back.

Like everyone else said I'd just go pick up a cheap one for now.

To answer your original question, try some safety sunglasses from Lowe's, home depot, or ACE...a good wrap-arounds pair can be had for $5-$7.
Cheap, effective. No worries if you lose/break them.

I agree with Busa 1166 about useless. Definitely need a full face helmet ASAP!

RF1000 $215 to your door on ebay. Throw the half shell in the trash.

Agreed, learned my lesson years ago with cheap sunglasses, riding with my visor up and had something kick up and got to have a piece of 3 dollar gas station sunglass lens removed from my right eye Go with something Z87.1 thats designed to take a hit and stay together
