[1200 bandit]

im in the uk and would like to no if any1 had any idea on where i can get info regaurding visor tints which are legal as i want a dark one but been told 2 diff things from to diff shops one who sold them said their legal shop that didnt sell them said their not legal

"legal" tinted visors are freely available here in Oz, and most are tinted just enough to still pass the legality/registration test.. this may depend on the individual porkchop who's just pulled you over, (and how much trouble you're really in!) but generally they'll leave you alone. All this may vary 'cos you're in the UK so laws are different. search some Aussie websites (mcas.com.au, bikebiz.com.au, helmetwarehouse.com.au etc)

As far as I know, a 50% tint is the darkest you're allowed ** law and even then it will be marked "for daylight use only". Dark, mirrored etc. visors are illegal, wear sunglasses instead.

i have a tinted (dark) visor, and its not ileagel providing i dont use it after dusk!

its not diff to wearing sunglasses after all... tho some cops are just hell bent on pulling you over once you on a motorbike!

tinted visors are illegal but on sunny days the police usually turn a blind eye to it. alot of police use black visors themselves! so just go and buy one, the worst they can say is take it off
