I use mercury coated , no problem in day time though, cant adapt it in night driving , and since my clamp has broken my visor is stuck in a good position, i can just bent my head to see thru the visor when the fellow drivers coming in opp direction jus dont care to lower their high beams..
but the anti-glare goggles by fast track are better than using the mercury coated ones for night driving.


Blore guys..please suggest some shop to get the helmet spares like clamps for the visor.. i dont want to be in the GTG with a loose visor/ maybe without a visor.

My previous HJC CS-12, which nobody has been able to hook the visor back on, and the new AGV XR-2 i got a few weeks back.
Have another old beatup AFX lying around which i don't use, and one HJC CS-12 Echo lying with a friend in the US since ages.

The AGV is a sweet deal and I got the same,

AGV X-R2 Race Helmet
(Two shell sizes for improved fit, SSL Carbon Kevlar fiber stratification and core-system technology, X-Vent System with controlled airflow uses vents and extractors to supply fresh cooling airflow inside helmet, Removable & Washable honeycombed DuPont CoolMax lining for maximum absorption of perspiration and improved air circulation, Double D-ring chin strap, 100% UV protected Anti-Scratch & Anti-Fog racing Shield with Tear-Off Mounts needs no tools for removal, Snell M2000 and DOT certified, Fit can be customized by changing the Cheek Pads and Liner)

KBC, HJC & Scorpion are just as good as each other, a lotta bang for the buck helmets.
Mukesh & Stuart stock KBC in bombay, slightly more expensive than maybe what you would pay for your helmet inclusive shipping but then you can try it on before paying up.

While at KBC, lookup the gun shot / gun slinger helmet in the VR 2 series, and the ex 400 dog fight helmet in Scorpion, just love those graphics!!
