Has anyone noticed a gradual degradation of their helmet's quietness as they
get older?  When I first moved up to my Bell Star II from a Nava 2, I thought
it was very quiet.  After a couple of years I found myself wearing ear plugs
for highway trips and wishing I had a quieter helmet.  I guess the soft foam,
especially the cheek pads and the neck roll, compress some or just get saggy
with all the sweat and use, etc.
