Reading about Daijya helmets is a revelation... in fact, the most important factor in a Helmet is the shell... and people are goofing up with that...

I think, xBHP should take notice on this fact that they are cheap replicas... also, check with DSG who is one of the sponsors.

Sunny!!! MG!!! Listening?

Does KBC/Sparx helmets sold in bangalore ?

[Aryan]

I got a reply to the mail I had sent. Here's what they have to say regarding the KBC lids that I had enquired about. Just to make things clear, I had enquired about the availability of either of these three lids:







And here is the reply:

Hi Aryan,

We dont have an online option but we will have one soon.Do you want the Imatra in blue or the Mugello ? Also, specify what size do you want? We do have a dealer called Kaulsons Racing Products (KRP) ,you can check if they have it or if not mail me back to check if we have it for you. We can take a bank deposit into ICICI and ship it to you so there should be no problem if we have it.

Regards ,

Thats a great helmet, presuminh you got it off denniskirk.com too.
I've used it for a couple of rides already, just make sure you set the vents to open everytime you ride, the vents really make a difference.
And preserve the tear offs they 'll send you for the track days if you intend to do any.

With the way helmet prices are in India I've ended up ordering on the internet,
AGV XR2 Race Helmet (with Clear Visor and AGV Breath Deflector)

Thanks everyone (esp. Manson) for your suggestions and help!

Nice..How much are you getting it for, and from where? Kindly share the details.

Can SomeOne tell me how do i put AGV's Visor ..???

[manson]

LP, what model is this for?
Try looking for a video, google is yopur best friend for any viedoes you may ever need, or even pictorial representations.
If all of this fails, just go to the store you picked up the helmet from, and have them fix it for you.

There goes my KBC Mangun.. Rs.12,500/- is way too much for me to spend on a lid. Have to look at some alternatives now (AGV, et al)

Is anyone using the Vega Boolean right now? How is the safety and fit. I read a small review on the BikeIndia site, and it seems better that other cheapos in the market. And , well, that's the best I can lay my hands on in my city. So please suggest soon...my current ERGO looks like it has been ravished by a big grizzly bear! Also, I don't prefer ordering online, as the fit will be compromised in that case.

Hey.. i used vega boolean for few months, the one that u see in my display pic... lost it a month back.. the helmet is good, the visors dont glare much and view is wide enough.. but the fitting isnt that good... paddings inside arent that great...
