Member Contributer bryan217 Posted May 19, 2010 Member Contributer Share Posted May 19, 2010 Nick (Electrodynamic) just bought a Suomy last week....he loves it, and said the noise was alot less than his Arai, and it feels like it weighs 1/3 less too. He hasn't brought it over for me to look at yet. :laughing6-hehe: Maybe the Arai was the wrong model/shape for his head, or the wrong size. I don't how a Suomy could be quieter than an Arai. Lighter, definitely, but quieter, no way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect the most of the Suomys have oval shaped interiors. Beck 95 VFR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only bought it because it was supposed to fit like the round Shoei RF and Icon Mainframe shells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
