My first Helmet was a Suomy...Ventura. I bought a size to small but it was still a good lid...Quieter than my Scorpion but the Visor Fogged up worse. So its a give and take.

My first Suomy was a Ventura too. Shield never fogged on me. But it did fly open at speed if you turned your head. That annoyed me. But it was a very comfortable lid.

You had a Diff Visor so maybe thats why??? Mine was just clear...Same Style Suomy as Mine except I had Black and Silver not Blue....Def a Good Lid.

Suomy is one company I've stayed away from. Not that their products are inferior or anything,I just don't typically like their graphics and for the money,why not a Shark or high-end Arai? You typically can't walk in to a shop and pick up a visor. I've also heard that the shield change is fucking murder and it flips open at speed.

Def...Every compaany has some Funky Graphics...Soem like them others dont.

Thats what I love about them...the graphics. The shield change on the Spec 1R's are tough...time consuming. But on the Vandal it's cake. And the shields lock...on the Vandal...and the Spec 1R's I believe.
