Fuel cells

Hi everybody, I am looking for some impute on some new riding glasses. I currently use a pair of flak jackets and wanted to get a new pair of fuel cells for riding. My question is do they stick to your head well enough that they wont fly off while riding? I ride a cruiser with no front fairing. Any help would be appreciated.
 
Welcome :)

To drive the R1 without a helmet on the circuit I use the x-metal xx with 50's tshocks when I take the 300 km/h they stay in my face but as soon as you turn your head can fly, it is best to secure them with a count like bring the whater jacket, the fuel cell will surely fly away, they don't get too tight on my head, I also have a medium head, I'm not very big-headed
 
Fuel cells are nice. Big.

No fairing or winshield on your bike and anything could fly off your face unless it has a strap on the back or unless you have a half helmet on and the lip of the helmet kinda keeps em in place.

I'm not a fan of fairings either but I do have a detachable windshield on my FLHRE and I use it whenever I'm on the highway and my glasses never come off, helmet or not

Thanks for the reply I do wear a half helmet most of the time I am on the bike i just wanted something with more coverage than my flak jackets

Fuel cells have good coverage I like them because the earstems are flat and fit under the helmet nicely
