I'd just like to repeat at this point that you'd look like a knob ;)

Also me sheen is as good as rainex and the finger blades are about 1.99-4.99 used them for years

And you don't look like a knob well not from that anyway

Thinking about it a bit more, i know that F1 drivers have heated visors which help evaporate water on the visor. They also keep the inside from misting up.

Why don't we have them on bikes yet?

Wipe a cut in half potato over your visor.. the starch will disperse water quickly and a damn sight fekkin cheaper than all the other options..
