Would like something light, quiet, with good airflow. Any suggestions. I have a Evo Shark I love but its heavy and my HD modular is noisy as all get out.

Shoei Neotech for me.
It meets (exceeds) your criteria, and you didn't include price as a consideration.

Dear God yes.   500 miles today in my new Neotech, and I love the thing.  Great airflow, quiet, and an integrated sun shield.

Wouldn't trade my Schberth C-3 for any of um. It's really quiet, but cost too much.

"The Ball&Chain" and I are very happy with our Shark Evoline3s.

We really like the ability to wear them open at speed.

X2.  Pricey but probably the best helmet on the market.  I added on the integrated headset so I can bluetooth to my Garmin and iPhone.

Yeah I like the EVO3 but its hot unless you open it. The Neotec looks good  but it is expensive!

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 like my Nolan N104 but I discovered on my first highway trip with it that it does get a little noisy with the top vent open. Many helmets fit different so be sure to try them on before shelling out the money for one.

Another 600 miles today.  I actually took my earplugs out for a stint, and was pleasantly surprised with how quiet it was. 


The C3 is a great helmet if you have a round head.

BMW 6 or Schubert. Cheap for great protection.

Of course like the old commercial says if you have a $100 head buy a $100 dollar helmet.

Don't by crap to protect your head. Would you buy a cheap gun for self defense or a "budget" parachute

A couple pics of the Schuberth and the Scala Cardo Headset.  Fits great (I must have a round head), tinted built in visor is great, it is extremely light, rated as the quietest helmet on the market, good air flow and the headset is the icing on the cake.

Schuberth C3 Pro would be my first pick.  Problem it wouldn’t fit my head.  If there’s pressure on the forehead your head will not fit.
 
I went with the Shoei Neotec Modular.  I think it very quiet and comfortable.  It replaced a HJC Max, which can’t compare with the Shoei Neotec.

When it comes to the Modular helmets you get what you pay for.

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.
