The first item I bought was this Muc-Off Foam Fresh, foam cleaner for helmet linings.
Bought this for SGD$13. The instructions guide say to take out your helmet linings first, remove dirt and mud from them, then apply the foam cleaner. But seriously, who has mud in their helmet linings? I know I don't. So I just wiped the linings with some tissue paper and then applied the foam cleaner. It has a citric smell and it produces a fizzling sound as it seeps into your helmet lining. As per the instructions, I wiped off the excess foam and put the helmet linings back into the helmet. Do note that the helmet linings end up being a little wet. I used a hair-dryer to dry it a little before putting the helmet on. And viola! The product works great, no more foul smelling helmet. You have to apply a lot of the foam cleaner for it to work though, see the video below for what I mean by a lot.
The next item I bought was the Fog City Hyper Optiks Visor Insert.
It is essentially a light reactive, UV blocking, anti-fog film. The insert is big enough to cover your field of vision, yet small enough to fit onto virtually any visor. Oh, and the cool thing about it is that it turns from a standard light mint green tint to a cobalt blue tint in seconds under bright light. This kind of obsoletes tinted visors. Now, I can ride in the day and not be bothered with sun glare, yet still be able to ride at night with clear vision through my visor. I also tested the insert in rain, and it's perfect! No fog at all under heavy rain. The package comes with clear instructions and provides you with the necessary items to aid you in aligning the insert to your visor. Bought it for SGD$40.
The last item I bought was a set of ear plugs for SGD$2, heh.
Cheap and good. Ear plugs reduces rider fatigue, which is particularly useful for touring or track days.
That's all I have for this post. Will be heading to the track with my friends really soon. Until then, ride safe!
