Unexpected benefit of a quiet helmet - Harley sound!

I have a Shoei RF1200 I wear and love it. It is pretty damn quiet, and I have my bluetooth wired into it so I can listen to tunes.
To those that don't understand how we could ride in a helmet, you have to just understand that some of us like myself, are exactly the opposite. I cannot understand not wearing a helmet. I completely respect your right to not wear one and have no problem with the fact that you don't though.

There used to be a HUGE thread on just about every helmet out there.. you're looking for a half-helmet, i can't really help you.. i have an HD one, but it's old, and looks like a huge mushroom and i never wear it anymore.. However.. i did switch to a 3/4 Rockhard American Classic. It's very stylish, low-profile, extremely comfortable, and it's very quiet, too.

This past "Black Friday", Motorcycle-Superstore had an outrageous sale on helmets, and I picked up a full-faced one for Winter riding (not that i did much of that with my bike being in 50 pieces, and a ton of snow on the ground).. but I ended up getting this one for $38, and a blacked out visor for like another $12.. Again, Very very comfortable, has vents built in for fresh air, not as quiet as my Rockhard, but still pretty quiet, and isn't as "huge" on my head as you'd think..

I live in a helmet state and appreciate the review on the Schuberth helmet. If you don't live in a helmet state, why would you even bother to comment on this thread? I really don't think the OP intended the review for people that don't wear helmets.
I wear a half helmet in the summer and a Schuberth in the winter. In the summer when I hit a free state, the helmet comes off. In the winter the Schuberth stays on, it's warm, quiet, great no fog in the rain and bluetooths to my IPod.

I forgot to mention: While the Schuberth helmet is very good at attenuating wind noise and high only engine exhaust frequencies, it still allows perfect conversation (hearing and speaking to others). Neat trick.
I wore the helmet in the store for 20 minutes before buying, to make sure the fit was good and no sore spots, and kept a series of conversatiosn going with store staff with zero issues.
