Just got a Bell Moto 9 Flex the other day. Love the helmet overall. But my 100% goggles don’t fit too well. Because of how tall they are they get pushed down on my nose and restrict breathing. I did not have this problem with my Fly F2.

My helmet is a large for what it’s worth.

I really want to get a couple pairs of these, but man are they pricey.

Kinda bummed. I liked the 100%, my local shop stocks them and it’s easy to get lenses and tear offs. I just got a fresh set of Racecraft frames and 3 injection molded lenses. I have 5 pairs total and they just don’t work with my new helmet.

There are Airbrakes with heavy discounts on eBay. 100 bucks is not a horrible price.

Do you only have racecrafts or do you have some accuris to try too? Sometimes changing to the non-outrigger makes them fit better.

Air brakes fit well, to put it bluntly they’re used by Bell a lot when doing development work...

You know, I only tried the Racecraft. I have a couple pairs of Accuri. Will give them a shot.

Yeah if you notice a lot of their guys run the Accuri because of the way it fits. And you can still use your new plus model lenses in them if they work.

I ride with Prospects and Airbrakes and they fit fine. I tried the Accuri in my Moto 9 but I always got sand in them. Not sure what the issue was. But whatever, prospects and airbrakes are better anyways. More vision. Maybe switch to prospects. They're not that expensive and have a really big field of vision. (even bigger then the airbrakes)

Airbrakes for sure! And as someone else pointed out, if you look around you can get them for around $100 on sale.

They’re honestly my ideal goggle. Might have to see what I can find on eBay and save some money.

The Accuri do fit better. I’ll give them a shot this weekend and see how they do.

I wear glasses and run oakley o2's. They have cut outs in the frame for the glasses to fit. I wear a medium helmet and found they didn't fit in fly helmets, went to a store and tried on nearly every helmet they had and ended up with m2r x4.5. Very light and a big eyeport.

I had scott otg and hated them. Even with the foam cut away they still pinched my nose

You can’t push your helmet up? Every goggle should be fine with that helmet!

The Racecraft just don’t fit well in the opening. Honestly I had never ran into this before. It’s just the way the cutout of that helmet is I guess.

I take the nose piece off both the helmet and goggles and it works well. Scott hustles and spy klutch fit a bit better but I still prefer the racecrafts

That’s weird, my racecrafts seem to work just fine once you pop the nose piece off with my moto 9. Gotta run the strap pretty tight to keep sand from getting in, but that aside they’re great
