Eye Watering Experience !
I rode 900 miles this week end and found that the air circulation in the Justisimo was irregular. With all vent closed I could sometime feel warm and fine and sometimes there was a draft of air.
Result is that this morning I woke up with dry eyes and it took the all day to come back to normal. I am not asking for doctor advice to cure but for biker advice to prevent [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif[/img]
I have always liked the idea of old style goggles but I would need to ride an Enfield or a Harley for that! Seriously, is is a Caberg Justisimo problem? Is there any technique to limit the problem?

I had 2 gt's and the only problem was misting up in winter, rainx cured it.

Not got a dead bee or bug in there somewhere blocking or rolling around?
I would say that was a genral dehydration problem not specific to the Caberg.

How much water did you drink over the week-end ?

I'm on my 3rd Justissimo and I have never exprienced Dry Eye Syndrome.

Although .................

I have had gallopy knob rot and box car willy, but not at the same time,

both were caused by petrol fumes off sitting to close to the tank [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif[/img]

That made my eyes water [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yeahyeahyeah.gif[/img]

You are making a LOT of sense. I was looking for a techy answer around the way you wrap your scarf to block the air etc. But it is a fact that I drunk less than my usual and the evaporation from my skin was accelerated by the constant wind. I think I am happy with this explanation on the basis that all i have to do is to drink more water.

Catsbum...I am glad that you eliminated the Justisimo fault possibility. I quite like this model.

Thanks guys.
