i find my LONGWAY's padding has soften alot and now air can travel into the ear area making the wind sound rather loud.. any1 else has this?>

 

Can't tell the difference.... I'm having problems with the visor though.

 

I noticed that the interior gets stained by water easily(and done very easily due to the foam seal around the helmet. And when left alone, the anti-fog coating becomes somewhat crystalized and flaky. Now i can see 2 distinct layers on my visor. Seems like its extremely lousy and crappy.....

I'm using an XL agv. Which you may mean that i need a XXL or XXXL Arai for me to fit in is it? XL Agv is just nice and confort for me.

 

Presently, AGV longway is definitely not good for rainy days. Reason? The visor fogged like nobody business. Anti fogged is lousy. During non-rain day, it work fine and comfort. Need a new visor btw, any place to buy?

Fogging is the least of the issue. The foam seal around the visor is the worst thing i have ever come across. C'mon, foam? it practially absorbs water and then transfers it through the visor to drip down internally. Who in the right mind makes a seal with foam?

Yeah lah, i agree. Well, depending on weather lor or riding trip. If going long distance (likely to heavy rain) trip, i use my shark ff helmet (Under water brand leh). For Singapore, I use my longway lor.

 

Under heavy heavy rain, water tend to sip thru the foam. But in term of safety, Anti fogging is very important. With the visor so fogged, cannot see can post a danger to all and itself.
