While the incoming noise through the shell and undercarriage of your helmet is definitely a secondary factor of importance (after safety) when looking for a helmet, for many riders road noise can ruin a long ride or weekend cruise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Safety should always be your primary concern. If you haven\u2019t already, read our article on helmet safety standards and testing procedures<\/a>. An interesting fact from the US Federal Highway Administration shows that road noise can reach up to 80 decibels. This may not sound like much but imagine enough mosquitoes swarming around your ear to reach that noise. Quite a lot of noise now isn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Road noise can actually be amplified by the wind passing through and over your helmet pushing up the noise to 115 decibels. Road noise can be significantly affected by your choice of helmet, improving your ride, and saving your hearing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The latter should actually be of more importance, choosing the quiets helmet is a by-product of saving your hearing. As riders, we should all be wearing ear protection as a first defense to combating loss of hearing. Something simple like these MotoSafe Motorcycle Earplugs<\/a> is perfect as a first step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to the premium modular flip-up helmets, the Shoe Neotec 2 is a great contender for the top spot<\/strong>. If you prefer the modular helmet style take some time to look into the Neotec 2<\/p>

Shoei claims that the Neotec 2 is a much more comfortable and quieter model offering advanced aerodynamic features<\/p>

The Neotec 2 offers a snug fit while not hitting too hard on any pressure points. The helmet offers a safe and secure fit that\u2019s comfortable in any riding position with little to no irritation when shaking your head in all directions.<\/p>

The inner liner fits firmly across your face offering a pleasurable interior fit. The snug-fitting also adds to the noise-canceling features of the helmet. Doing it\u2019s best to cancel out any unwanted noises and vibrations.<\/p>

Good to note is how low the whistling of the wind is when riding at higher speeds. So much so that it\u2019s worth mentioning that the Neotec 2 is a far quieter helmet than the Vemar Sharki I<\/strong> in case you were considering that as an option.<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
