        No it is not normal, fit might be the issue could be one size big, or the visro seems to be at fault.

            You want to buy a helmet from a company whose country vetoed Azhar's black listing in UN as a terrorist? Further you want to buy a helmet manufactured in a country which continues to occupy Indian territories and supports indirectly and directly the terrorists operating in India from North East to J&K?

              The primary reason for wearing a helmet is the protection it offers. Don't get a lid that you can't rely upon in the event of a crash as one cannot predict such an event. Always be prepared for the worst with the best protection you can afford.

              Besides, you can always upgrade your helmet's looks with decals, vinyls, stickers, led strips and what not.

              Cheers and regards.
              Safe riding!

                Wouldn't recommend this, looks have to the secondary to protection always. It's always better to go with recognised brands with a good reputation like MT, HJC, Steelbird etc.

                  Hey guys. I've returned the Shiro Sh 890 due to high wind noise. Looking for a new helmet. My head shape is intermediate oval. What's do I go for? I don't need a dual visor. What I need is good wind protection, and I do wear ear plugs. Is smk stellar a good fit for my head shape? The brands don't mention the head shapes right?

                        It's very light weight as compared to my sol helmet which was 1.6kg without gopro.
                        This one is 1.3kg.
                        It does have wind noise but if you wear ear plugs you won't feel anything.
                        Unfortunately since getting this helmet i have not been able to go to any long rides to test the comfort of the helmet.

                          To all Smk twister users. Is there a way to conceal the Bluetooth opening on the helmet ? It's causing wind noise creep in at 50kmph. I'm yet to get the Bluetooth device but until then this is annoying and disturbing. Can anyone help me, please ?

                            I've never encountered such an issue, but I would recommend using tape to seal off the Bluetooth cutout or use playdough to seal the small circular hole inside.

                            How old is your helmet? Get it replaced if possible because such a thing should not be happening in the first place.

                            Cheers and regards.

                                A curious observation: was reading first few pages of Helmets forum... and then skipped to last page. Between 2008 and 2019... the nature of discussion has switched from helmet shells and fits... to bluetooth, and air-purifiers!

                                Looks like we want our drawing room to travel with us on the bike trip. Just a reflection.... maybe we need to remind ourselves... Safety... safety... safety.... and then the soreness of a long ride.
