Found this on that infamous selling site. Think it may work better on the screen on the RT.

I've seen spinning visors in old biker photos, not too sure why you'd want one of these as Rainx or similar work well

I remember those spinny visors. Always advertised in MCN. Never saw anyone with one. Back in the 80's when it rained you would have a shower running down the inside of your visor. I tried draft excluder but that only worked when the foam was dry. The younguns don't know how lucky they are with waterproofs that are waterproof, pin locks, working brakes, and tyres that aren't made from Teflon.

Another crap accessory you must have for the summer. Ventz airflow cooling system.
You slide these under your jacket cuffs to allow air up your sleeve.
