The S1 is very quiet. I've done a lot of motorway miles on a naked and it makes a big difference. Can't beat the sun visor either :D

My AGV TiTech, and Previous HJC AC-10 are both noisy as they come.:oops:

I have one in the Daytona style. Quite quiet, looks cool, pain in the **** to change the visor.

How do you get on with it day to day Toady ? That bit round the bottom made it feel a little claustrophobic, but I guess you get used to it. Felt very comfortable.

Is it quiet enough not to need ear plugs? its difficult to gauge how loud it must be! all i know is my nolan stops me hearing the engine properly at 80+ and after a few hours leaves me a little disorientated!

Quiet helment I had was a AVG, before they started fitting removable linings and leaving that huge void next to the ears, they seem to do it with all helmets now. Never found anything like it since. Though my KBC VR1 is not to bad, then compared to the Carberg its like being in a library... The Carberg is soooo noisy for a full faced helment.

Been using an S1 for a few rides and it's less noisy than the Arai AstroJ before it, but not that quiet.

Depends a lot on the bike I think, both mine are faired, and I've heard it's a lot quieter in free air on a nekkid.

Up to about 60mph I find it fine, but for more than about 20mls I'd always use plugs. You can at least do short trips safely without plugs.

It's a very nice helmet, comfy for me, well made, and the sun visor is just the best thing ever invented ever. It comes with it in "aviator" style with the nose notch, which annoys me, so they tell you to simply pull it out and turn it upside down, and you then have a straight edge. You can set it at whatever height you like, and this time of year being able to set it as a sunstrip is perfect.

I agree, its the quitest helmet i've ever had, its a mega pain in the ass to change the visor and i was dissapointed with the build quality after a year of use
