The Fox Racing Main is the dirt bike goggle we would buy: a one-size motocross goggle from a major motocross brand, sold by Amazon (per the Amazon listing). For a clear lens for wooded trails and evening riding, the 100% Strata 2 is the alternative.

Coleman's CT200U owner's manual and CPSC's ATV safety guide both list eye protection with a helmet for off-road riding. Picks were compared on lens, fit and warranty from the listings.

How we chose

Goggles were compared on lens type, fit, extras and warranty from the listings.

Choosing dirt bike goggles

Lens tint

Clear lenses suit woods, shade and evening; tinted or reflective lenses cut glare in open sun. Many riders keep one of each.

Fit with your helmet

The goggle should seal around the eyes with no gap at the nose and sit inside the helmet's eye port. Try them with your helmet; the helmet picks list kit goggles too.

Anti-fog

4-FQ and Carsories list anti-fog lenses. Keep riding to let air flow through the vents, and wipe from the inside only with a clean cloth.

What to skip

Skip sunglasses as a substitute: they let dust and roost in at the sides. Coleman's manual calls for eye protection with a DOT helmet, gloves, over-the-ankle boots and long sleeves and pants. Hands next: motocross gloves; the full kit list is in the mini bike safety guide.

Frequently asked questions

What are the best dirt bike goggles?

The Fox Racing Main for most riders (sold by Amazon). The 100% Strata 2 with a clear lens suits shaded trails.

What lens color is best for dirt bike goggles?

Clear for woods, shade and low light; tinted or reflective, like the 4-FQ, for open sun. Many riders carry both.

Do I need goggles for a mini bike?

Yes. Coleman's CT200U manual lists eye protection alongside a DOT helmet, gloves, boots, long sleeves and long pants.

How do I stop dirt bike goggles fogging?

Choose an anti-fog lens (4-FQ and Carsories list one), keep air moving through the vents and wipe only from the inside with a clean cloth.

Do kids need different goggles?

Smaller faces need a goggle that seals. BATFOX lists adult and youth use; the Carsories pair is adult size.
