HJC helmets fit me the best. However, I wish their modulars including the RPHA-Max would have a different tinted sun visor mechanism. I thing that front-to-back longitudinal cutout for the opening/closing slide needs to contribute to the in-helmet wind noise.
Last week I bought a Neotec to replace my IS-Max because a small piece of plastic broke inside the HJC that created a very annoying whistle. Haven't had a chance to ride but 20 in-town miles with the Neotec so not much experience with it yet but I expect the smaller sun visor system together with the fluffier neck roll and the chin guard result in a quieter ride.
My $0.02 and YMMV
Edited to add that another plus with the Neotec is that the sun visor does not touch my nose and my glasses fit comfortably behind it unlike in my HJC.
