Ok ,i got to test out the new lid on sunday and am fairly impressed.The wind noise is not too bad,not as good as some helmets i've had and better than some others.The finish and fit was good for my cranium and you certainly get looks from it(or maybe thats the busa?).2 things that were a bit annoying were the vent cover that slides on the front tended to rattle a bit,specially if your head was down a bit and the other thing is the helmet chin part sits about an inch out from your chin which creates a draft on your nose and face,so i guess in winter your visor would not fog easially,but it can be a bit f#*king cold on your face and the vents at the back work well,i could feel the cold air on the back off my skull,shame you cant close themD"> .Overall i'de give it about a 7 out of 10,think it would be a good summer helmet.These few annoyances could be rectified,so yeah,for $340 i'de give it the thumbs up.
