Default Helmet question...

I have a scorpion exo 500 Warhawk. This is my first bike and helmet, and I was wondering, is it normal that even with all the vents closed a lot of air leaks in? Are there helmets out there near the price range of the scorpion ($140) that have a tighter seal?

There should be air coming in and out of the helmet. Even with the vents closed, there still has to be circulation.

ok well I guess the question is how much is normal...when I get above 100mph I cant hear anything except the wind inside the helmet and I have to blink quite a bit to keep my eyes moist. If thats normal then I guess its ok. LIke I said this is all new to me just trying to guage my gear.
