Returned to riding after a few years away my last helmet was the Rhpa and the AGV, and I never remember them being loud or noisy or air noise being an issue.
But I got a Shoei GT air.. nice enough helmet, but this thing is loud I mean painfully loud air noise wise even with a neck tube on to block under noise the visor adjusted as tight to the helmet and seals as I can and all vents closed, this thing makes more wind noise than is bearable.
any ideas, and who has better helmets in stock in my size because nobody seems to stock XS helmets.
Do you wear wear plugs? In my case I won't ride without them.
I had a Shoei helmet for a bit and it too was quite noisy. I switched to Arai and find them quieter. They also fit my weird head shape better...
