Report on the "Windjammer"
http://www.webbikeworld.com/r2/windjammer/helmet-wind-blocker.htm wind noise reducer. As I have posted in the past, I have a nice case of tinitus (ringing in the ears) that I do not want to make any worse. After a recent 3,500 mile trip which made my tinitus a little worse I found out about and have now road tested this helmet attachment called the Windjammer. The short of it is that it does in fact cut down on wind noise. If you consider wind noise an issue then I would recommend this product. Next time you are out cruising over 60 mph, take your hands and put them up under your helmet beneath your ears. If you notice a definite decrease in wind noise (I did) then this product will work on your helmet. It takes the edge off the buffeting wind noise. Now I use this with my ear plugs and feel more assured my ears are protected. You do not want tinitus. This thing is very easy to install. It has a semi adhesive rim that fits snugly around base of helmet and can be removed and reattached any time. It doesn't slip. You can decrease or increase the size of the neck hole to fit your comfort level. As you can see in the pics I made mine fit so the neck hole is on the smaller side giving me a more air tight fit. It is harder to get the helmet on but after a few times I am used to it and it's no problem. The down side is that you do not get as much air flow in the helmet thereby making it a bit warmer in there, and you do not hear the engine nearly as well as before. Both of those negative points are well worth it to me if it protects my ears.
I also tried the "Quiet Rider" helmet closure that is sort of similar to the Windjammer, however I did not like it nearly as well as Windjammer. It was a pain to install, (on my helmet) and doesn't work as well.
