Suomy helmets?

[Chiz]

Does anybody know what the Suomy spec1R is like. They've got them on offer at my local bike shop and i'm very tempted. They look nice, ACU gold, fit well. What are they like for wind noise etc?
Thanks,

From MCN review:

I got my Spec 1R in the states as I wanted the US only Anthony Gobert Replica, I was well chuffed to see it on sale for 299 dollars. so after blowing my holiday budget on the second day what did I think of my purchase? well the fit is different from my older gunwind Suomy, it feels more secure, but less cushioned, as if it was meant purely for the racer/sports market (which as the range topper for a year or two, probably was the brief). The fastner also boasts the popper to hold the excess strap which always flaps in the wind, which is much better than that awful jawbreaker of the Gunwind. which means higher speed work is far more comfortable, despite the lower quantity of padding. The finish on the lid is also much better than the previous model, the paint has shown no sign of fading yet (after 18 months) and the vinyl around the bottom of the visor hasn't cracked on the first occaision it came in contact with my glove as I lift the visor.

Strengths
The quality of the finish and the though put in with the strap holding popper being moved

Weaknesses
the plastic vent cover is too flimsy and has cracked
