My latest Daijya Carbon Fibre Helmet.

Color: Black
Price: Rs. 12,990
Satety Standard: ECE 22.05

Sorry if this post of mine is uncalled for. For 13k I remember nisarg (tulinisarg) got an agv helmet from abroad (riders discount) with shipping and duties included. And that was a DOT/Snell approved lid.

Where did you source this lid from?

I got myself a new KBC Helmet - VR LAGUNA II (Green).

Nice. I wanted to buy a KBC earlier but PRS had no stock of the ones i was lusting after. For reference, here they are:

@Sunnyside_up - I had a talk with you few weeks back. Would you tell if the new stock which is to arrive in feb include some new designs too or will it be only the currents ones? and any updates on the riding gear (jackets,gloves etc)??

One comment that I have regarding the GMax that I own is the chin strap locking arrangement is manual (D ring). Don't know if SOL is providing with the auto locking (quick release) types.

SOL helmets come with D ring. I was so satisfied with SOL SF01 model and after looking at SL68s graphics bought another.

My latest Daijya Carbon Fibre Helmet.

Ownership experience: Happy that I got this helmet.

Congrats on your buy.

Cons:
- The latest Daijya Helmets got "quick release" mechanism, I prefer the "Double D Rings" (so replaced it with the Double D Rings from my old Daijya Helmet)

Why is that you have considered "quick release" as Cons. isn't it a better comfort than the D rings.

Ladies Helmet Full Face with lift + Helmet lock for 2 helmets

Hi Guys,

Need to get a full face helmet with lift mechanism for my wife(a la Ninja). She would not go for full face to start with so one with a lift mech is what well make her used to wearing helmets.

I have looked at Ninja (i have one) and boolean from Vega (India) but none of them come in size S. Can any one suggest a good alternative to these in size S ?

Also, do suggest a sturdy helmet lock which can secure 2 full face helmets. The usual ones do not have enough room for the Ninja.

Thanks,

[Sunnyside_up!]

I have been using the GMax GM68 for few months now. Ordered it from U.S. A very good product for the price you pay and as we can see now SOL is bringing similar product to India at an even cheaper price: 4700 INR (I bought for over 120 $ plus international shipping charges).

Varun - SOL is the parent manufacturing company. The helmets are sold under the GMax label only in North America under a proprietary licensing agreement, and sold as SOL everywhere else in the world. So the helmets are more than just similar - they're the same, except for the branding. I think you have a 68s Max graphic?

Harsh - I'm not sure of the dates, but suggest you keep in touch with the support centre at Spartan ProGear.

Yuv- Many consider the double D-rings superior in terms of safety as it's impossible to come loose in a crash - thereby reducing the chances of your helmet coming off your head. Of course, its also a preference thing - almost all DOT ( read US ) helmets will come with D-rings while many ECE (read European) helmets use the ratchet quick release.

Personally I found the D rings a royal nuisance initially but after getting used to them, love them!

@Sunnyside_up: Yes your are right . I just visited the SOL website and cleared my doubts. They are made at Anyng Industrial Co. Ltd. of Taiwan and sold as GMax only in North America and as SOL else where.

Yes, mine is GM68 MAX graphic.

Ls2 ff384

Hi Guys, my two month old LS2 Dream:



Bought it from Helmet Paradise for 2.5k.

Love the simple Graphics and the Dream Racer art on it.

Forgive the Nokia 5233 for the poor images.

Although I found that LS2 ones do fit on mine.

I have a LS2 phobia, the inside of the helmet gets fogged inspite of the breath deflector

[Ri$hi]

I need to get the visor changed of my LS2 helmet, as it has developed a couple of scratches due to a recent crash, any idea where can I find the visor for LS2 in chennai?
