Helmets

[sai_ace]

I don't have a ride but bought a good helmet ! Safety first, Bike next !
Pranay and Bobbykick are gonna get me for this cos its the third in the family~!!(don't worry guys, mine is a plain visor).
Got myself a rainbow visor initially but had to return it because night-time visibility was hopeless. I bought size 61-62 because I ride with a cap and the fit is good except for around the cheeks(as expected).

I stuck to my budget of Rs.1500/- and got it for the same~!!!(Pranay, don't kill me)
Guess how ???

dude ...where did you get this helmet???

Haha. Now I will really second guess everything I buy. But really dude.. I think this might be the best LOOKING helmet you will get for Rs 1500. Or maybe even the best... And good'ol me. I paid twice as much. That too after being duped and then going back.

Here are my two helmets. The first one saved me in a crash I had recently. Since thats gone I got a new Daijya yesterday from DSG. I dont really care about the controversies over it. Lemme know what you guys think of it!

Awesome lid. But I thought DSG had stopped importing Daijya.

Awesome lid. But I thought DSG had stopped importing Daijya.

What? Is it true?

[chetanpulsar]

What? Is it true?

Nope.... They are very much importing/selling Daijya.... a pal got a Daijya helmet recently for 5k.... awesome thing !!! Will post the pics soon.

@ prajwalkashyap, sai_ace, chilled fire :

Here's the secret, I was just casually lookin around helmet shops one by one with no intention of buying.(because, I don't have a bike~!) Then I would spot slightly old or scratched helmets and start bargaining knowing that dealers would be glad to get those pieces off the shelf ASAP. I would make offers so low that some were ready to throw me out~!
In one shop I spotted an AGV original which had lost sheen, he quoted 1600/- for it but I had to leave it cos it looked rather dull and was pretty heavy.
Finally, I spotted a GPR I liked with missing top air vents, dealer quoted 1900/-, I said 1500/- spot cash even though I had just 300 bucks in my pocket~! Then, made a deposit and picked up the lid the next day. I have covered the vents with M-seal now but one can hardly make out. Would be glad to show you guys at the upcoming G2G.

Any Bangy guys wanna buy GPRs, AGVs, AMs, Cross or Vega I would be happy to help you out in getting bang for your buck. Just PM me.

anyways i mailed DSG 3-4 days back enquiring about daijya helmets and they said they will try to locate a dealer around my place and and i asked them for catalog cause i know there are no dealers of dsg or daijya here...but still waiting for their reply

My Newer-than-new Helmet

I was slowly riding down to office, when I passed Orion motors. So ...Thought of checking their showroom, and check out some riding gear. Went in, saw a spanking Daijya staring at me....now, at this point, I was telling myself, no way, Pranay, you just spent on a helmet 3 weeks back and who in the right mind would buy two helmets in a month?
....
....
....
....
5 minutes later I walked out with this....







P.S:- I'm broke for the rest of this month

@pranay: Looks good, how much did you shell out for this?

[Praful]

Pranay, cool lid man..

One question, who makes Daijya helmets orginally? Are they actually a reputed/respected brand anywhere else in the world?

Thanks guys. Shelled out 5.5K for this. The normal Daijya price, ----> I hope .

@praful: Yes dude, if you go through the last 5 pages in this thread, you will see the whole history of Daijya and also some interesting stories on who actually makes these. BTW also check your inbox. Have PMed about iRC in Bangy.
