What is the quietest helmet you've owned?

Trying to eliminate some wind noise. With earplugs, and one of those fancy "wind jammer" things on my helmet, its still very loud at about 80mph. Without earplugs, its almost painfully loud at 40-45mph.

On my friend's ZX-6R it seems to be a bit better because of the more aggressive stance, putting you behind the windshield.

Either way, whats a good quiet helmet?

      • Depends on the sound level. I go with speeds vs. time. — BrianM, Fri Sep 03, 2010 2:56 pm
