my gothic posession.
had seen this helmet on the AGV shelf at Bachoo Motors for 23k a few years back(now its priced at 18k) even before I turned ride-legal and at that moment i knew that someday I shall get this helmet for myself.
Today my helmet arrived at the P.O albeit I am not and wont be in a condition to ride after a crash, for the next 6 months atleast (6 broken ribs).
Its a K3 Gothic Black (s) Valentino Rossi replica helmet,ordered it off ebay for 10.2k (og cost) and 3.4k (duties). Shipping cost was waived off for christmas and it arrived in a months time with no problems faced at customs luckily, though it remained there for 14 days before arriving at the local post-office.
Fits perfectly so one can use the AGV sizing-chart for online purchases, it worked for me.No riding experience of it, so cant comment on the vents, though double d-ring,anti-scratch/fog/UV visor,removable/washable padding apart from neck-roll are a standard.
cant wait to put it to use(aaargh!!
) but until then, PICTURES!!

Guys bought a cross helmet few weeks back refer post http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/universa...tml#post564206. Cant feel a big difference between vents closed and open. Since this is my first helmet with vents want to know if the vents are for namesake or cant feel the difference as the climate is cool nowadays. Should i take my helmet to the dealer?I bought the Ninja 250R !!.....And then i woke up :(

@retweak: he sure did. But i too hv a slight issue regarding wearing it straight up. I am gonna b bck in India soon but will wait for a while to see if sumthing new is launched. By the way get well soon and back on the saddle....
@pranit: worth every penny bro. Bought it online taking a leap of faith on the online sizing charts, but it is perfect and didnt burn a hole in the pocket either. Hope you get yours soon.....Last edited by Irish; 01-25-2011, 08:24 AM.Lots to do still...

march 2nd eh ? coming close .. the fit will get better with about 6 months of usage i get , like SNUG , since thats the perfect word for a helmet fit . K3 series have different designs , do check out the official AGV site ( www.agv.it) some brilliant designs have come out , but i want the rossi ducati first edition helmet , it looks psychedelic.
