Well, the classic solution is soap. Rub it on, buff it clear. There is a product out there called "Cat Crap" that is anti-fogging.

Surprised you have trouble with a half helmet, though. I use a full face and can eliminate fogging by cracking the visor a bit. Problem is, fogging usually occurs when I don't really want to keep the visor cracked, e.g. raining or freezing cold.

I checked the web for Cat Crap and another called C Clear. Both seem to be more or less the same thing. The instructions say to apply it every other day. That seems like a lot of bother to me. I am going to try Rain-X anti fog wipes and see how that goes.

Toothpaste works well also. Rub it in and then wash it off. Works real well on swimming goggles also.

OK, I tried the Rain-X anti fog wipes and it really didn't help. They might work in a car but not a a MC visor. I'm gonna try the toothpaste thing.

Go to a sports store, get a bottle of the stuff us hockey player use on our visors. One application usually lasts about 5 games or 500 miles.

The stuff is mint considering the sweat, humid conditions etc.

rub toothpaste on and then wash it off works well and no cavities

Just read your question. You might want to try a Scuba Dive shop stuff we put on our masks before diving, cannot remember the name for it. Or Try a marine store as i picked up Meguiar's Mirror Glaze professional 17 clear plastic cleaner as I use it on my windshield to clean it up. Also for boat windows a thing called Clear To See made in Florida might do the trick. Hope this helps

SCUBA divers use baby shampoo. Rub it on, wash it out. I haven't tried that on my visor, I just crack open my visor a little on my FF. Now that I'm thinking of it, I might give it a try.
Sea Gold is the SCUBA product for anti-fog, but most divers just use baby shampoo it's a lot cheaper.

JT Anti Fog works for me. I started using it first for paintball. You should be able to get it at any paintball shop, or dirtbike supply shop.
