    Like Foo... 100% brand Armega goggles. If you sweat a lot, and have big fogging issues, get the dual pane, or dual pane vented lenses. We wear these for bikes, and sleds. If I were going to fog... It would be on the sleds, hot face, cold air. But, the dual panes dont fog, for us.

    The Armega is a pre-curved polycarbonate lens, the clarity from flat lenses of any goggle mfgr to the curved, in 100%, from my experience, is like going to HD lenses. When I was exposed to them the first time, I was told, look through your new 100% Racecraft goggle, then look through this... It was night and day. Within a few days, I had multiple pair. Ski

    Do you guys like the clear or mirror lens better?

    I'm clear, always. I only snug my visor so I'm can move it up and down on the fly.

    For woods riding, clear mostly. For bright, clear, sunny days, open terrain, tracks, light tint to mirrored depending on conditions. Ski

    I have a whole bin of goggles here now and I honestly haven't found any appreciable difference between any of them other than lens availability. The 100% stuff is more readily available where I shop so that is what I have the most of. I have a couple pair of 100% Racecraft and that is what I reach for most often.

    I used to have a fogging problems due to sweating, riding humid Minnesota northwoods singletrack. I can't remember the old brand that fogged up on me but I've since switched to some SPY Woot goggles and they've been fog-free.

    Ive used Spy in the past, I had no issues with them. For the past few years Ive been using Dragon NFX. I like the NFX because they are easy to clean, and easy to swap lenses.

    Any of you wear glasses? Difficult to find OTG goggles, especially for someone with a big head and face.

    I've been getting a giggle over the used YZ125 listings in my area vs KTM 125SXs. Every YZ is clapped out with horrible spelling/grammar in the listing, and little, if any, actual details. Oh, and shit pictures.

    The KTMs look pristine in comparison and are pretty detailed with parts replaced at X hours, etc. Great photos too. It's hilarious.

    Pretty cool. Seems to be a good combo of a Yamaha and KTM.

    In the business, YZ250 owners can’t discern why the YZ250F parts they bought won’t fit. I mean, it’s only one letter, but reading IS hard.

    I've switched to riding with safety glasses most of the time myself.

    Picking up a KTM 200EXC this weekend. It's been about 35 years since I've had a dirtbike but I'm really looking forward to it. First item on the list besides the bike is finding some nice knee braces seeing how I don't bounce as well as I used to.:D

    Get ready to have the wind knocked out of you more than some uber nerd during his first semester away at an all-boys boarding school. It stops hurting after a while, I promise. :D

    Anyone have experience with the YZ125X? I was leaning towards a straight MX bike and just riding the vet tracks, but this seems like a good 50/50 option for both track and trails.
