Well since I used to wear a full face helmet I used to wear a turtle fur, now that I wear an mx helmet I found that I should find something that would offer a little more protection. What do you guys reccomend/wear?

Do you have a breath deflector in it? I also wear a MX helmet, I have a breath deflector and wear a thin balaclava under mine, thats it. If you do some searching you will find several different styles of balaclavas, some have a breath deflector built in.

A thin balaclava is fine, just get a good one. The cheap ones are just that. They get wet easy, hold moisture in, and get stretched out and lose their shape/elasticity.

I got a really thin balaclava and a hunting facemask that covers my nose and the mid part of my face. I might get a breath deflector because If I breath to hard then I noticed the center of my lense fogs. Might be because I'm in the house not outside because it's not really that cold.

I just wear a bandana over my nose, after awhile it freezes solid and blocks the wind. If it's really cold I put a little bit of duct tape on my nose.
Owning a race sled is like having a totally hot girlfriend..... All of your friends want to see it, feel it and check it out..... They all want to know what it is like to ride it, but if they only knew how much time and money it takes to keep one up, they would call you a fool!

HJC makes a nice universal breath deflector that works great for @10.00. Well worth the investment IMO.
