        Did you really go through this thread buddy?

        The answer to your query is just three pages back from here.

        But still let me answer your questions. SOL is upwards for 5k, nothing less than 5k in SOL. For your budget you can look at Cross, LS2 or Studds Scorpion or Studds RHYNO, both are excellent VFM helmets and have all that you ask for.

        Cheers!

        The girl said, 'NO!'


        And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.

            LS2 Pistonhead and LS2 Phobia are the hot sellers here in this community followed by Cross and SOL. LS2 Pistonhead and LS2 Phobia both should come close to 3k max. Some seller sell it at a premium close to 3.5 to 3.9, in that case you can bargain a little hard.

            But for more info, you can always go back this thread.

                • Least Wind Noise

                  Hi All,

                  looking for a new helmet. Could anyone please tell me which one has the least wind noise in the <4k options that are available to us, have tried a couple of cross and ls2 ones, didnt see much difference in wind noise when compared to ninja rhyno and vega boolean that I used previously. Please suggest.

                    You obviously asked and answered your question. At that price, don't expect MotoGP performance out of any helmets, and any helmets, even GP helmets do have wind noise associated with it. Wear the one which you comfortable with the wind noise.

                    Cheers!

                      Just to clarify, SOL starts at 4k with the SL48s.

                              Thats too bad, LS2 I would say is very irritating at triple digits, are SOL helmets any better?

                                SOL is not super good, but yes I guess. I've work the metal man series, and rode it 80 KMPH, I can hear some whistling on the top of my head, and yes I guess wind noise is not much or less than LS2. At least from the LS2 I've worn, the Phobia.

                                As I previously said, almost all helmets do have some noise component to it, you can't wipe them out altogether.

                                Cheers!
