Thoughts On The Schuberth R2

[WingManGT]

Hello, my birthday is slowly creeping up on me so I'm thinking of swapping my Icon Airmada Miscreant for the new Schuberth R2. I really like the idea of quieter helmet, as well as OEM intercom integration. Does anyone have this lid and how are the noise levels?


p.s. for anyone that haven't seen it yet

I have an S2 and despite the claims they make very quiet crash helmets, it was one of the noisiest crash helmets I have owned in a long time (and I also have an open face lid which is quieter). It also fell apart within a few hundred miles. It did get repaired and I get I could have had a one off which happens. It is still bloomin noisy though. The lining is lovely and the ratchet system for the visor is solid but I'll probs not buy another. (The S2 has an internal sun visor which may be a reason for it being so noisy, but it is def a lid that requires earplugs in.)
