I've got an HJC CLX-4 and use Scott Hi-Voltage 2 goggles and Oakley O-Frames. For the most part they work, but when it gets really cold both sets of goggles freeze up when I stop for a break, as I don't think either set have the dual pane lenses. I would definitely get a set of goggles with dual lenses to avoid fogging. Scott makes a set of goggles with a built in face mask that looks like a cool idea. Never tried it, but it is supposed to keep fogging to a minimum. I also use a No-Fog mask and that seems to help a little bit, but doesn't completely do away with my problem on the really cold days. You also might want to look into getting a nose piece for any set of goggles that you get, because on the really cold days frostbite can get to your nose easily with a MX helmet and no mask to cover the nose. Hope that helps ya!
bieffe 3 sport is a good helmet can be used as a moto style a with a shield,i have used this type helmet for 7 yrs,work great either way.only bad this about it is it is hot snell approved.goggles smith poor man turbo (cariboo) or scott 89's.

What do you use under them though, a balaclava or what... I can't imagine going out with just the goggles, talk about freezing!

No Fog has a new mask this year with better neck protection and if you also get the MX headband it works really well, i just got one from Royal Distributing, check out their site..........James

The MOST important thing in this style of helmet is to have your skin covered! With HJC helmets Oakley and Spy goggles seem to fit best on the ACX-1 and 2 as well as the CLX-4. The mask that HJC introduced last year for snowcross helmets fits great with these goggles. Dual pane lenses are highly reccommended, and when it gets -20 or so, why do the full face electric shield combo wearers ask me to borrow a set of goggles?????

I use a balaclava under mine helmet and goggles, although it is a bit better than a standard balaclava, might be called a shellclava or something like that. I agree, my Oakley goggles fit a bit better on my HJC than do my Scott Hi-Voltage goggles. I'll have to check out that new No-Fog mask.

I Use Oakley O Frames And I Use Pro Grip 3400 The Pro Grip Have The Duel Lens But If They Get Wet The Glue Between The Lenses Makes It Come Apart And All Glue And Blurry. But Try This Guys Take Reg Shaving Cream And Wipe It On The Lens And Leave It On For 30 Sec And Then Wipe It Off And Let Me Know If They Fog As Easy.

Im currently running with a Z1R Rail with Scott Hi-Voltage Snocross II goggles. I also use the nose guard on the goggles. This keeps me from getting frostbite on my nose.
I also wear a Yamaha 4-way stretch baclavia. I have ridden in temps ranging from 40* F to 10* F.
When it gets colder than 10* F I switch my my Yamaha Sno Force helmet. MX helmets are too open and flow too much air to wear on really cold days.

Use Smith Warp Snow with yellow/amber. Then at night just Scott clear. Scott seem to fit better though.
