My reply was to your comment about lack of extra detents being unacceptable, and not seeing any safety benefit to it. I thought I had addressed both. You hadn't mentioned your glasses, and didn't provide any other justification.

You referenced lack of detents between full open and closed being the deal-breaker. My 25% figure was arbitrary, as would be the visor position.

Arais have a defogger detent that barely gets the helmet off the lower locking mechanism and cracks the seal around the visor edges to allow air to get in. Their mouth vents can be configured to blow air at your face or up behind the visor.

Arai's defog detent should do this, as well as anti-fog treatment on your glasses. Have you considered Lasik? If it's really hot & humid you're probably going to want to fully pop open the visor at a stop anyway.
I dunno why I'm defending Arai so hard here, maybe I'm secretly a helmet Nazi and didn't know?
