    @Dhairya ji : Why changing the AGV? It looks good.

    Cross helmet are not available here in Delhi,NCR. Though Vega Shadow tops the list for me
    Just wanted a change! No other reason. Also I think there are lighter helmets now.

    Vega Shadow - I read here only that it has pressure points and it hurts sometimes.

    Rejected Beon -looks like a local Chinese brand.

    What about LS2 - where can I get it and how is the performance

          Keeping clean doesn't help man. Isn't there another way?! Maybe some kind of poilish or oil, that wouldn't spoil the visor?

          The pleasure is when your rear wheel slides, and you bring it back; and when the front wheel lifts, you take your time bringing it back.

            Better still, dip some cotton in vodka and apply on the visor. Alcohol is non abrasive and repels water on surfaces.

            Yeah right, oil ??? It's gonna get dirty in less than a mile.

            Instead buy "RainX" (not sure of the spelling). I use it in my cars and it repels water very well and doesnt allow any droplets to stay on the glass. Available at most shops that sell imported car care products. Its basically a small bottle with windshield washing/cleaning fluid. You can get it from EVO, cambridge layout. (the shop details are on the ninja thread and in ur visitor msg's).

              Yeah right... Vodka is anything better and easier than arranging for a potato

              RainX - Over priced, hard to find product. Potatoes are cheaper!

                  Have used Vega Shadow for a ride...It hurts only if its not of proper size. The pads at first will show some problems, read - adjusting , but with time that goes away.
                  Regarding LS2, Manan is using the white-red dragon. He might be of some help.

                  LS2 starts form 3400 and Shadow also falls in the same range.
                  Chopras, Mahalaxmi (Karol Bagh) have LS2
                  P.S : I dont like Mahalaxmi at all

                    I needed a helmet badly and went to a store in Coimbatore. They had 3 yellow MPA AGV's for 2.6k.
                    he also showed me a special AGV catalogue. I was shocked seeing all of them available "on order".
                    Just felt like sharing this info.


                    I have narrowed down on the LS2 Dragon-White & Red
                    Please suggest
                    1. Is it cheaper in Chennai or Bangalore
                    2. Whats the best price I can give in these 2 cities.
                    3. Which is lighter in weight Cross/LS2 ??
                    4. Is the inner padding of LS2 removable/washable?
                    5. I keep hearing about this D-ring thing a lot nowadays. Whats that pls ?

                    yes its cheaper in bangalore.you may get it at balaji helmet palace, lalbagh road.
                    he quoted me for 2800/-
                    LS2 is lighter then cross
                    inner padding of LS@ is removeble & washeble

                      Tibby, ur asking for too much dude
                      Buy a nice Microfibre cloth and hide it somewhere in ur R15 and use that to wipe the Visor

                          Was wondering if there is some water-repellant treatment available for the visor, coz when it rains water droplets stick on to it, rendering vision difficult. Any suggestions?

                          PS: I'm using a Vega Formula HP, with the stock, transparent anti-scratch visor.
                          Did think about this : Clear Vue Rain Repellent | Thought it is kind of overpriced. Probably heading there over this weekend to pick up Turtle Wax and stuff. We can go there together if you are interested

                          • @rdna:how much does that cost ? I mean is it worth it ? coz our time riding in the rain is not all that high ... maybe we could manage with our own lil solutions ... just a thought ...

                            P.S: I use a 3M fog demister for the inside of the visor , to prevent it fogging up , incase ur lids don't have a breath deflector or an air vent ( mine doesn't )... it works okay ...
                            People ask me , why are you cribbing about the BHP ? to them I say "MORE is never ENOUGH" xbhp.com

                              Coplay, Check with JOSH Coimbatore member. Last week i picked a LS2 Dragon White for him from bangy for 3k. It is not easy to get it for 2.8k. Although, it is possible.

                                I'm on the verge of upgrading my helmet this month and am looking for ones with a anti scratch visor. Other requirements would be Weight, Comfort fit and Howling . What is the price range I can expect?

                                I was planning for CROSS, LS2 or AGV, but doubt if they offer antiscratch visors. My budget for now would be around 3k.


                                Thanks!

                                P.S. I've read that it is reccomended to change the helmet once a year. Is it true for Helmets like Shoei and Arai??
                                Umm.. guys?
