There are several "fixes" available from bike shops, but in my opinion none are a wonder cure. Try a little aerosol can of anti-fog, you spray it on the inside of your visor and wipe dry with a tissue.

You can get what is called a "pinlock" anti fog screen to fit inside your visor.
I don't need one and don't have one but they are supposed to be great.

Hi Louwai,
Have tied just about everything because I live here in bloody cold Armidale, the best thing so far has been a product called FOG TECH.
It comes in a little pack that contains a wipe that you use to apply it to the inside of your visor. Not sure where you get it from as I bought it off a Ulysses guy that came to a meeting here a few months back. I think he was going to market it here as it comes from the USA. It is great, hope you can get hold of some.

You could try a "Fog off". they work as a neck warmer but go up over your nose and have a vented Snorkel thingy that directs your breath out the bottom of your helmet. I've been using one for years and swear by them.
normallg go for around $40 at most bike shops
I bought a Nolan N102 flip as a 2nd helmet (and to try the N-com gear) and it comes with the pinlock anti fog screen.
All I can say is it's awesome. No fogging.......at all...
I love my shoei but I'm willing to put up with a bit of extra wind noise (earplugs fix that) and extra weight for the benefits of:
flip up face - No need to take of the lid for secpol when I go on base and easy to have a drink with the helmet on at rest stops etc.
no fogging - Well I do live in Melbourne!!!
great integrated flip up sun-visor.

Thanks guys. Some good info. I'll be looking into a few of those during the week. If I can see where I'm going.
where abouts in Vic are you? I know bike mart in ringwood used to stock them so did Jeffrey honda and a couple of the other dealerships in Ferntree gully.
I'm heading out to buy a new one this week (had it in my backpack and made the stupid mistake of doing both zips up to the middle so it opened and I lost everything out of it) I'll check if bikemart still stock them as its on my way into work.
see if they sell the snorkel thingys - I lost mine :/ using something else to replace it but its not really working all that well :)
