Default My New Lid

I bought an AGV XR-2 a few weeks ago, but I just received the Mirror Sheild today.
Overall I like the helmet, but I still wished it were a little more quiet. Maybe it's just me but I've said this about all my past 5 helmets.
The one main thing I really like about this helmet is when I get up into tripple digits my head doesn't bobble around. AGV did a nice job with the aero-dynamics on this one with the wind tunnel.

Here are a few pics.

The back half of the helmet looks goofy to me. Congrats man.

Dig it. Highly recommend wearing ear plus when you ride. On the highway wind noise in an average helmet approaches 90 db's which is damaging to hearing over extended periods.
I also find riding with plugs relaxing and helps me concentrate and enjoy the ride more.
