@SB: Abbe chindi-chor vo kala hamlet tera sir nahi bachayga jab tu girega. Use a good one always like DK n Satyen said. That MPV or watever looks really NAJUK!!!

Sweet design, sweeter price. I paid 2.1k for it a couple of months back & I thought I got a good deal !

Actually i got a really good deal cause it was the last piece and its out of production.

an agv lid for 2.5k is bull,defnitely is fake ,starting is 7.5k in india

Hey Anirudh, the pics of the helmet jadhav had posted was of an 'Indian' MPA AGV, which usually retails for between 2 - 2.5 k. Its from their Pacific range, you can see the box with the word 'Pacific' in the background in the 3rd pic. I too have a helmet from the same range which I picked up for 2.1 k. The 'actual international' AGV's cost upwards of 7.5 as we all know.

yeah thats right.

Whats better for city driving, a normal full face or on of those that flip up?
Do the flip ups give less protection?

If the flip-up is loose, it may flip-up when it falls, thereby offering no protection to your jaw. I find flip-ups easy for city use&keep mine tight always. For highways I would always suggest a full face.

Go for the Vega High-End... Cost around 3k with graphics n 2600 plain black, matte n gloss.
Most of the Mumbai guys use it, Even am gettin a graphics wala one on friday.
The fit is amazing + removable & washable padding.

mpa agv or vega boolean or studds 3g ?

For city riding I would say flip-up is very convenient. Choose between the Vega Boolean&Studds 2G/3G. Boolean has the exquisite feature of internal visor (sunglasses). I had the Boolean, but gave it away due to its compact design. It used to hurt my forehead. Studds is broader on the inside, so went for the Ninja 2G. Padding is also better for Studds IMO.
For touring, if you are not into high speeds, any of these lids will do till 100-110. After that the buzzing&whistling becomes kind of unbearable. Due to this reason, I went for the Vega high end for touring.
I have posted reviews of the Studds Ninja 2G&Vega high end with pics in this thread. Here are the Vega high end pics: http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/universa...tml#post194868

Hope they help you in deciding!

Nope, the padding is not removable. Big downside.
Good stickering is done by Mohan Sticker Shop in Taj TriStar lane, Secunderabad. He knows me, KP, Satish&many other xBhpians. Contact no. +91-9966903377.
