    Tried a one smaller sized helmet of fame brand and in that also sound is therr.

    May be I'm mistaking some other sound as wind noise.
    The sound is like if u keep a slight crack open in the window and if there is fast moving air,, how the air will try to get in and make a continuous sound.. Its like that.. Don't know how to put it in better words 😞😞

    I am feeling that this could be a reason. Not sure though 😢😢

    Thanks dude.. Will Check it out.
    Also I have a doubt if the size is a mismatch.

    According to head size circumference 59 is my head size but I had to order xl due to smk dbranding. As the L size was too much tight for me while removing the helmet and cheeks beeing too night. So I got the xl size.

    I am feeling that this could be a reason. Not sure though 😢😢

    If you going for smk then Order one size bigger than your head size. As the brand has very tight fitting for our correct head size. Not sure why is that though.. Haha

    Would recommend SMK Stellar, comes with Pinlock 30, and is ECE rated. Goodluck.

    Best one ISI is studds shifter. Or else my vote would be for smk twister as it come with pinlock30 and speaker pockets , it will cost u 100 or 200 more than 4000.

    And its there from 40 km per hour speed itself. Is this really how this is or am I missing something [emoji852]️

    You see those Matt silver plastic vents and deflector on top. They have sharply designed.

    That color was chipping out from the corners as i get out of the shop and ride merely 15kms
    Update.

    Detailed pics are as below.


    See these plastic vent parts and how they lose colour.






    Inside is pathetic. Huge cuts and open spaces.



    See this plastic part at ear pocket location. Not a good idea and it hurts if you're on long run and that part is touching your ears.



    Easily get scratched.



    Visor getting damaged due to rubber gasket.

    Verdict -
    You're paying 11000 for such pathetic carbon crap for no reason.
