I have the C3 Pro and depending on the bike I ride, depends on how quiet it is.  When I ride my Road Glide, the C3 is LOUD!  A VROD not so loud, my Ninja it is quiet.

Switched to a Nolan N104 a couple of years ago and really like it.

Thanks for the input guys!

I've got RPHA Max by HJC and love it. It's the same helmet Harley calls the FXRG for quite a bit less. Go up Revzilla.com, they have a good video review of a few top line ones. Like what was said earlier about protecting your head and the comfort factor. They say a helmet is good for about five years before you should replace it. That of course is with no damage, then you should replace it. So if your helmet cost say $500, that's $100 dollars a year for comfortable protection. To me it's worth it. Back to my helmet, it's very comfortable. The only thing I wished it did was allow me to raise the face shield without having to lower the visor first.

I have an RPHA Max as well, great helmet. Like others have said, different brands fit different head shapes better than others, find a retailer that sells several different brands and try them on.

Any try the Nolan 44?  I am considering this after a 2200 mile 5 day ride and it rained most of it.  i usually run a bell pitboss and love it but when it rains it would be nice to reconfigure the helmet to support the conditions.  Any feedback would be great.

I tried one on and its a narrow fit instead of a round fit. I liked it, but we went with the Gmax 67 which has visor and face shield and you can buy the chin bar if you want to seal it up for cooler weather riding. I have yet to find a helmet I liked while riding in the rain; just sayin.

Ditto! Excellent airflow, I can feel my hair moving with the vents all open and it never get sweaty. The Neotech is not much heavier than a half helmet and a lot safer, well worth the money.

I'd have to agree. Great venting and super comfortable too. I love mine.

I have a long oval head. Currently using a Schuberth C2 but it's getting pretty worn. The new Schuberth C3s are a more neutral fit and won't work for me. Any recommendations for a modular helmet to fit my head shape?

[MrSurly]

My impression is that the Schuberth is for round heads; the Nolan is for long-oval heads.

The Goldilocks of modulars is the Shoei Neotech.

That's good to know. My wife has a long-oval head and mine is round lol

Anyone try a LaZer Monaco Modular?  Supposed to be very light (carbon fiber) and comfortable.  Revzilla has them for $499.  Looking for something myself and these get pretty good ratings.

I have a intermediate oval head and only wear Schuberth helmets. C3 Pro and SR1(my daily helmet). I have never tried a Shoei
