Another thing - wearing glasses under the helmet isn't very comfortable for me. A good helmet shouldn't be loose, but then it pushes the glasses against my ears, nose...

Also, there are nice visor bags (and even bum bags)

I wish either Shoei, Aria or AGV mad a lid with a flip down Sun Visor, inside or outside the main one.

Wearing sunglasses is a pain in the arse - you can't 'flip' them up when you hit the shade, they're uncomfortable, you forget you're wearing them and take off your lid with them still on and I expect they're not an ideal item to have inside your lid in a crash...
...and carrying a spare visor - and having to change it - is also a pain. I like to ride without any kinda bag whenever I can, and sometimes I end up only having a pouch or bag cos I need to carry a spare visor.

I think Shoei might have a new graduated tint visor on the market...

I wear a legal tint visor and have a Sunax dark tint strip in the top edge of the helmet. Takes the glare out of the sun without having to wear heavily tinted visors, perfectly legal too.

I don't think there would be a problem sending one to the states. They would fit in an ordinary envelope and weigh about the same as a fart, send them an email, the Germans tend to be very helpfull.
