    Helmets.

    Visor never fogged - my glasses - but again was minor fogging. If I had put on a 'normal' helmet there would be no way could ride with glasses on.

    Helmets.

    I just got a Mission and wear glasses. I have a graveyard of helmets in trying to solve the glasses issue over the years. For the past 4 years had a motocross type helmet with prescription goggles - works well - unless super cold out. Last week/weekend had the opportunity to use the Mission for the first time and it was bitterly cold out and first impressions were phenomenal. I did have some fogging but would be solved with cracking the visor and it was relatively minor. I think with more tinkering with the mouth/nose rubber piece I could get it perfect (one thing was when lowering the visor it would hit my glasses or press them too firmly into my face). I did get the heated visor and had it plugged in so cannot comment on whether I actually needed that or not.
  3. Yes I had put them on mine - but not an option from factory order, but OEM option (maybe is on the new ones??). They have 2 - one magnetic and one a clip like thing. Simple enough install and plugs into harness. I had dealer put mine in. Magnetic link below and non magnetic is like $40. - i have the non magnetic ones. https://snowmobiles.polaris.com/en-us/shop/accessories/technology-electronics/2889142/
  4. ironically I had a few buddies up in Cochrane the last few days and got about 550km's in breaking in their new sleds. Said conditions weren't bad but were more short loops. They're at Churchill's now in NB on the way back.

    Helmets.

    Hey Nunz - how is the fitment of the Mission size wise - did you find that you had to go up/down a size? I'm normally a Large in other helmets - debating on pulling the trigger as it seems like it may be a good solution for my glasses. Looks like they have two shell sizes (S-L and XL and up) Currently my best set up ever is prescription goggles and helmet - although on really cold days not ideal.
  6. So Nunz, would you get the 650 or another 850?

    Comfort Inn, Sunset Inn, Best Western Lakeshore. Best Western probably best for big trailer.

  10. Agree on too risky to plan a trip. Haven't been able to pull one off in the last 4 years even with a cottage right on a trail as the conditions never cooperated when we were there. Subsequently we've just been heading to NB or further north for guaranteed better trails/conditions and leaving day trips out of the cottage when conditions are decent. We used to do that trip every year for years.
