My Least Favorite Helmet - What I don't Like About My Simpson Ghost Bandit 2 Year Follow Up Video

Before we start, I'm 5'7" with tall bars. I also have a Road Warrior fairing, I believe your experience with this helmet will depend on your size and ride.
The wind noise is only highly noticeable because the lack of cooling, the helmet has minor ventilation with a lot of noise. Which is just odd, noise has been a constant complaint about this helmet.
The buffering depends on your size and fairing. The extra cushion keeps vibrations to a minimum, but I found the padding a bit tight around my ears.
It might be the shape of this helmet, but my Speed Bandit is also a medium, just like most of my helmets. I can ride with my other helmets for hours, the Ghost Bandit is a different story. 40 mins seems to be my limit of pain threshold. After 40 mins with the Ghost Bandit, I need a brake.
My vision is a minor issue, but it becomes a problem when I can't fully turn my head because of the long chin. Due to my taller bars, I seem to run into my arms while looking over my shoulder.
The gold visor is a bit dark for night riding, and the helmet strap is a minor pain to deal with. The only functional vent seems to have zero function and I don't use the drop down visor.
The helmet looks cool, and the padding is high quality. The visor positioning works great, along with the visor lock. Compared to the Lane Splitter, I found the Lane Splitter more comfortable and quitter. It's also cheaper and you could pick one up for $160 during sales.
Thanks for watching again vatos, ride safe homies.
