    Try covering the dual visor opening and closing mechanism and see if it help. That part could be faulty. Mine get noisy only above 100kmph.

      4000 is my maximum budget now.
      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.

        Sorry I didn't get you. Where is the dual visor opening?
        Do you mean the internal sun visor controlling sliding switch?

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

              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

                Watch the helmet fitting guide video by MC garage on YouTube, and try it out. I suspect that the helmet is too big for your head.

                  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 😞😞

                    Did you try the guide? The helmet may be loose for you or the incorrect shape.

                    Is the sound like howling wind?

                        Maybe the visor isn't shut properly.

                          I almost tried everything but the sound is still there. Maybe its the shape of my head and the SMK brand shape and size.
                          Tried with baclava also, but didnt help much.

                          Thinking of returning it and trying some other brand.

                            Ad I said, it is about the helmet shape, not the brand shape. Same brand will have many helmets in different shapes.

                              Hmm, but I didn't like other helmets in the same brand. So have to change brand all together.

                                Hello guys, my wife has brought a new yellow vespa lx125. I was searching for a good plain yellow full face helmet under 6k. Any suggestions?
