Airoh helmets, any good?

As Vannus points out, any dealer who stocks goods from Feridax (i.e. Shoei, Sidi, Spada) will be able to get Airoh helmets for you. However, remember they cannot send them back, so they will have to buy the lid and then hope you buy it.

If you get stuck, PM me your location and I'll speak to Feridax and find a stockist for you.

Please don't buy an Airoh. I'm so disappointed in mine I am flogging it on ebay. It is unbearably noisy even with all the vents closed. The wind noise just seems to be everywhere, it totally ruins the ride.
Your face also constantly gets battered by wind - it feels like I'd riding with the visor open.

Seriously you will be disappointed if you buy one

Personal opinion.


Ive done 5000+ in mine and I love it.

Everyone has different tastes though

How do you put up with it? My old lid was a caberg v2 and I thought that it was noisy, but it's heaven compared to the airoh. My eyes were watering by the end of the ride after being battered by wind the whole way.

It really depends on head shape though. I find shoei unbarable but arai fine and my friend is the exact opposite even though we are the same helmet size.


Although Arai will costomise your internals for free and service your lid yearly!

As already been said it depends on head size.
I always wear ear plugs when riding and never had a problem with wind entering the helmet.
Its certainly no noiser than my arai rx7.
Maybe its just not the lid for you.
