For those that use pinlock shields
Just rode with them at night for the first time, and noticed lots of reflection of light. Headlights, brake lights, stoplights, etc. Not the worst thing in the world, just a little annoying. I've read around teh interwebz that this is a common problem; but at the same time, I've read many people not have the problem.
Sooooo, those using pinlock, do you?

Yes, indeed. I get weird artifacts.
For this reason I only use the insert when the weather is cold enough for fogging to be a problem. When it warms up I remove it and store it in plastic wrap.

It makes sense when I think about it. It's just another layer of plastic to refract the light. Or some science **** like that

I do notice a lot glare from headlights when I wear mine at night. It's the only one I've got though, so I don't really know if it's worse than a regular non-pinlock shield.
It's WAY worse than driving my car at night, though. |
