So I pulled the trigger last week and purchased the dark tint. I couldn't find any really good pics on the web specifying what tint the photo represented on the actual bike so I thought I would post pics in case anyone else has struggled with the same thing. In my opinion it's the perfect amount of tint to complement the blacked out back. A few notes on the installation: 1.) When you unscrew the headlight be aware the nuts inside the headlight move and is a b!tch to line back up for the new brackets. Not Dart's fault ---Honda made everything real tight as far as wiring and I'm guessing (without taking the headlight apart) that was the cause for the movement of the nuts. 2.) With the bike on it's center stand before I did anything I turned the headlight on and marked the brightest part of the beam on the garage wall with a sharpie (could have used painters tape instead--not as permanent) and used that to re-align when completed.

I have the Dart Marlin and I think it's darker. The tint is called midnight.
The Marlin Midnight what I am looking at. Thanks for posting the Dart tho. Notice any difference at all with wind?

So what you are looking at is the "Dark" tint. As for wind turbulence--smoother up to the middle on my chest and no noticeable difference +/- to the front of the helmet.
