Well, I purchased one of the new Shoei RF-1200 helmets this past month. I'm wanting the Photocromatic windshield they have coming out for it this Spring.

There seems to bit of buffeting noise somewhere above my eye area the best I can tell? My
RF-1100 does not make this noise. I'm not sure if it's the vent above the shield or if the shield needs to be adjusted to make tighter seal? It does feel a bit lighter I think?

Does the buffeting noise go away if you lean forward or tilt your head down?
Remember, it's more of a sport bike design and head position.
I'm probably going from my rf1100 to a gtair for this reason, as well as the drop down visor that I've grown pretty fond of in my HJC I seem to wear more and more.

If I drop my head behind the windshield the noise goes away as expected.
