Heck no I'm not some kind of fruit!But those Kotex panty liner things work great between your forhead and goggles to absorb sweat.There cheap and you just chuck it when your done.I've ridden when it's HOT out and didn't have sweat drip in my eyes,but it was streaming down my face.It works better than the goggle foam.I carry a rag tucked in my waist line to wipe sweat off when I stop or mud or fog in the winter from my goggles and if you fall the mud from your hands and grips.I've heard not to clean your goggle lenses with Windex but I do (no problems that I've encountered),use Pledge furniture polish on the lens and it makes it a little more scratch proof and harder for the dust to stick to the lens.Baby oil on the foam of the goggle frame cuts down dust from getting on the inside lens.And if you dont have a girl friend or wife have fun telling the lady at the check out line the Kotex's is for riding!

HAHAHAHA, I'd never have thought of putting a pad on my head but it makes sense. Thanks for that tip and I'll have to try it out here in the Dez.

I know a few guys who ride Sportsters that use them things to collect oil drippings in the air cleaner.  I just wipe mine out every now and again..... in a very manly way! :wink:

My Father used to use Kotek to wax his 39 ford coupe he always said there was nothing softer.

Not as funky or funny, but a drop of shaving cream smeared around then wiped off is a great anti fog seceret for the goggles.

 The adhesive side goes towards the helmet. LOL. If you get tired of your buddies "raggin" on ya for the panty liner, then just fold a paper towel instead. It does work!

 Dish washing soap works great for a de-fogger as well(SCUBA divers' trick).

 I don't think I have the stones to wear a pad on any part of my body. Heck, I've been married nearly 18 years and I still don't do any shopping alone at certain times of the month unless there's no other alternative.

 I'll just ride sweat blinded. :-D

  Maddoggy this has to be one of those cruel jokes to see how many idiots will put Kotex on their head and go riding. Its just like the time Madonna went on the David Letterman show and said that urinating on your feet in the shower cures athletes foot. You know she had idiots all over the Nation urinating on their own feet. I have talked to people that swear it works :? I dont care If it works Im not urinating on my own feet and I'm sure as he :evil: not sticking a Kotex pad on my forehead. I must say clever joke and nice try :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
