Helmets

Re: Helmets

I am using Shiro SH890 and a lot of friends are using the 881 and 821. Chin support is good, but there is no internal visor, it comes with free Pinlock30 antifog sheet on sh881 and sh890. They are lightweight helmets but best suited to city duties.


thank you, what would you suggest for a long term use, like i ll be using it as long as the visor available or until the cushions torn a part. i am using a normal studds helmet now(rs2500) ,generally ride at 80km (occasional city and short tours) but i would like to extend it to 120 km with a good helmet. In that case for a budget of up to 6k which is the better choice? safety and reliability are first and second priority.

I use internal Visor occasionally, other wise i would have jumped to shiro, but if i can wear glass inside then it may be a good choice.
scorpion is new to me, never heard before, in my gang every one use smk, i dont like much, but most of them are 2 to 3 years old still intact.
i was thinking about MT, but not sure about after service . so what would you suggest.

Your valuable suggestions are welcome, i don't have much experience with helmets

thank you

Re: Helmets

Looking for recommendations between Bell Qualifier or MT Revenge.. (₹9000 Range).
Have tried MT Revenge twice for a short ride and there was very little to complain wrt noise till around speed of 90.It felt rock solid.

Get Scorpion EXO390 if you have such budget. MT isn't worth it there.

Hello All,

Was looking for a helmet in the budget of around 6k. Please suggest some good ones
Also, how is MT thunder 3SV? I was considering that but heard it has a lot of wind noise ?
Edit: Would be used for City and Touring (70-30%) and I also wear spectacles.

Thanks,

Little wind noise is present in most helmets. Thunder 3SV and SMK force are good options there.

Any one tried shiro helmets, does-it provide enough chin support , is it comes with internal visor

Spartan pro gear

Thanks I will look at it. From where can I purchase this?

Re: Helmets

Why don't you take a look at the MT snake carbon fiber helmet. As you can understand, being a CF helmet it's super light and super rigid though will be a bit of a pocket pinch.

Thanks I will look at it. From where can I purchase this?

Re: Helmets

Hey guys
I am looking for an adv /off road helmet in 4-6k budget. Should be DOT /ECE certified. Did a thorough online hunting, but none of them have stock of one. Any shop in Bangalore (East/ NE) who keep some options?

Re: Helmets

Can we fit intercom in it? Does it have inner sun visor? Can the visor be changed? Like with fog rain protection?

You can fit intercom yes.
Inner sun visor - No
what is fog rain protection ?

it comes with a free pinlock 30 sheet, it is the best antifog sheet available for helmets.

Re: Helmets

Get SMK Stellar, beautiful lid for that price and comes with free Pinlock 30 sheet installed. Goodluck.

Re: Helmets

Can someone suggest me a decent helmet under 4k. I'm looking at Smk twister or any other alternative in axor?

Re: Helmets

Why not SMK or Axor? Can you please explain? I'm looking to upgrade my Vega off-road helmet. I'm confused by the number of options. My budget is 4k

Don't know about the others but SMK stellar is good. Although it does not offer an internal sun visor, it comes with a pinlock 30 anti-fog visor. Extremely useful in rainy weather at crawling speeds. I have been using mine for a year now. The build quality is good but not comparable to a LS2 or MT.
