Noise Reduction Features Provide Benefits Despite mixed reviews, the K6 incorporates several design elements that contribute to noise reduction: Thick, plush padding around the neck and ears Removable wind curtain that seals the gap around the chin area Wind-tunnel optimized shape Snug neck roll that creates a seal around the riders neck These features make the K6 quieter than most lids, especially less expensive ones. I regularly listen to music and noted that sound quality really deteriorated at high speeds (70mph+) in another lid, but not so with this one. Design Limitations Create Challenges The K6s noise performance does have some notable limitations: Some riders report noise entering through the top even when closed The neck roll, while substantial, may allow noise to enter from below for some riders At high speeds, some users experience lift and turbulence that increases noise Individual size variations can create gaps that allow noise to penetrate One rider specifically noted, an odd noise coming up from the neck roll that would go away if I blocked that space with my hand, despite the K6 having a larger neck roll than many competing lids
