Earplugs!
Earplugs!
i know alot of wind noise comes from the bottom of your helmet, try wearing a collar shirt one day then on the same day dont wear a shirt - it seems like more wind noise will happen with no shirt on while the collar kind-of blocks it from comming in.. just a theory.

I agree on earplugs.
I think any helmet that has decent ventilation, will have increased wind noise.
I prefer improved ventilation over decreased wind noise.
Riding postion, and windscreen shape has great effect on wind noise.
When I am in full tuck position mywindscreen (stock) diverts the air directly into the upper air vents.
Windblast also on the shoulders and neck area very loud when tucked down.
It's impossible for me to contort my body to minimize wind noise.
