Shoei Raid 2 Helmet

Don't buy a Raid 2 unless you are already deaf! When I unpacked the helmet I found that the dealer had put a pack of ear plugs in the box, and I was soon to find out why. I was surprised at the noise level at 40 mph, and by the time I reached 70 mph it was like having a thunderstorm around my head. This helmet may be suitable for scooter riders or people who only ride in town, but if you are a rider who travels long distances at speed, then this helmet is not the helmet for you. I have been pleased with Shoei helmets in the past, but this one is poor.
