    Check out MT Axxis and Braking. They are much better than LS2s. Helmets are not just about speed. SOL has the maximum ventilation in any helmet priced south of 10K. Also, it uses multiple shell sizes for its construction(S, M, L) which is way better than merely change in padding that many other helmets provide.
    It is to be noted that everyone recommends that you use a good ear plug when going on rides, because not all helmets diminish sound noise, even, if they cost above 25K.

    As a side note, since you mentioned SOL 68s, I would suggest you to take a look at MT Revenge and Blade.

                  Precisely the reason for my confusion regarding the price. Spartan Pro gear also quoted different prices for two different mails.

                  Too much noise and awkward air channeling. At highway speeds.

                  May be it's that particular model.

                  I ride over 150kmph on highway rides usually and never had an issue with too much wind noise with MT Axxis Evo. Maybe as you mentioned, the other model might be having issues.

                    Are you sure?
                    150kmph and you dont face too much wind noise? [emoji33][emoji33]

                      Pretty sure. It's not like completely muffled, but wind noise control is way better than LS2 and other THH helmets that I had tried.

                      SOL is pretty famous for it's venting, another reason for more wind noise

                        is SOL sl68s a good choice mainly for ventilation. Own a cbz Xtreme so riding speed will be between 60-80kmph.
                        price quoted for SL68 S unicorn 6.6k

                            I have a 68SII hornet, not happy with the ventilation at all..
