Thanks for that info.
What we need to be able to do is go into the helmet shop on our bikes and sit in a wind tunnel and test each one, or at least they should have "test helmets" we can go for a propper spin in.
Do you reacall at all the difference in buffeting from your old lid to your is-17. I dont notice any buffeting as such now - just constant blast which is ok and I wouldnt want to exchange a constant blast for a lesser blast but with buffeting.
I assume that the included dark visor is also road leagle, yet still darker than the IS 17 drop down one, I canot see any reason why the 17 drop down one is so pissy, as I really want this feature but for me its the first thing that would get altered with some car window film I think.
I wonder if the RPHA with a drop down would be the perfect lid, but I think they would not be able to get to same air vent flow inside.
AAAAAAH I want the cool air in my lid as a lot of my riding is in nice hot weather and because of that I want the drop down, I have lived with swapping visors for 12 years having to undo 4 screws so im sure I can live with the new quick release ones.
