I've been looking at the cheaper helmets and loads of the nice ones have tinted/blacked out visors. I was told they are illegal so why the hell are they still making and selling them? If I was to buy one what could the legal consequences be?

There not 'illegal' it comes down to the individual officer. Carry a clear one around your waist and you'll be fine.

2.3.7 Tinted visors

2.3.7.1 If tinted visors are used during daylight hours, advice only; if used during the hours of darkness or conditions of reduced visibility, consider prosecution using ‘Tintman’ equipment where available.

2.3.7.2 It is acknowledged that there is much debate about this issue and many variables and anomalies can be applied. Therefore a pragmatic approach is necessary and only in cases where there is an obvious danger should prosecution be considered.

If you press the SEARCH button and put in 'tinted visors' it will come up with a lot of info :)
