Ok he's done
It doesn't make as big a difference as I thought it might. It ain't nothin', but it ain't that much.
The vent just gives you options.
I actually have a baggershield adjustable (no vent). Here we are, still in "winter", I put the shield high in the morning commute this week (30-50 degrees), and pull her down on the way home (60-80 degrees). I can't imagine having no air on the face/helmet in hot weather. Well, unless you don't ride in hot (90+) weather. JMO.
Also, as a Texan, I reserve the right to call folks 'nuts' at my own discretion.
I'm definately nuts! no vent in S.Texas. it seems like it is just too much to keep up with + extra money on the frontend. I dont like the look...

Why have a single itty bitty vent through the shield when you can have 1-3 inch tall 100% adjustable vent across the entire base of the shield?
I have shields with and without vents but I prefer the vent for air management. Crack it open and it helps air flow a bit higher over your head, open it all the way and feel the air on your chest.
But if I was going to get an opaque shield, I don't think I would get a vent. Wouldn't look as "cool". JMHO
Do many go w/the shorter opaque shield, I like the look but would probably want a smoked one for backup, say night riding.Originally Posted by bobbyf6b

I would have melted last summer riding across Death Valley without that vent!
Please don't spook the road-sheep.
That is because sugar melts in the hot sun.
Vent in Texas for sure!
