Prior to getting my CB1100, I used to buy helmets from clearance tables with no clue how to pick a proper fitting helmet. So wind noise was normal for me. After my accident a year ago, I knew I should replace the HJC I was wearing. I went to the dealer where I bought my 2 CB1100s to checkout their stock. At the dealer, I was taught everything you guys are talking about. The dealer encouraged me to try on variety of helmet brands and models. When I put on a Shoei GT-Air, I knew it was the helmet made for my head, uniformly very snug around the circumference of my head that broke-in perfectly = a lot less noise and very comfortable.
My advice to people like me, it may be worth trying on and buying a helmet where they have people to help you pick a helmet that fits you correctly.
BTW, with the discount the dealer gave me, the Shoei was close to the price I seen online.
