Gammer,
  Hows the visor emchanism work on your CL-16?  Does it stay put when not in full up or down position?  I'm parking my el-cheapo modular for a mid-range full face.

I've read in reviews that folks had issues with the visor not staying in the middle positions while driving.
So far I've only driven at low speeds with it at the first notch - the lowest one and no issues. But I rarely drive with the visor up at all...even on hot days. Usually my visor only goes up when I'm at stop lights. It goes back down as soon as I start to move.

It has a "notch" that hold the shield about 8mm open, perfect for a little ventilation without air blowing on my eyes. The shield can be locked closed if desired. I haven't tried riding at partial opening at high speeds yet.
