Helmets

[Dreamwalker987]

its the ff 384 ls2,i doubt whether a s size is available,all ls2 i have seen so far comes in l size

according to Laxmi Automobiles authorized distributors of LS2. ls2 helmet comes to India in "L" size only ...

Okay!
I'll let you know which all S size helmet he have

But my main concern is Price.

I asked about LS2 FF358 to the guy working in AH. Helmet he said 3.2k.
To which I said it was mentioned for some 2.6k on xBhp.
(It wasn't actually I was just checking)

And he said "Yaa if its 2.6k then its near 2.6k" with a fake smile and weird face of loss.

Now how to get the actual price ?

:@
Anyone here who knows A.H. Helmet personally ?

the laxmi automobile owner said the cheap ones are made up of fiber glass and the originals ones have tri-composite shell...fake sells around 2350Rs..and the one he said are originals the range starts form 2950/-....only buy the helmet when DOT is embossed inside the lacquer.

only option left for my girlfriend is to buy airpump model...L size helmet on S size head...i am confused what to do now??

Not an expert, but IMO getting a wrong size helmet even of better quality will be a waste. Also pump in helmet is for fine-tuning the snug fit of Helmet and not an alternative for wrong size, and here you are planning to cover 2 size up. So No-No

Studds and Vega do have some good helmets and they do come in sizes. Try those instead of getting wrong size.

better to buy a helmet of right size rather than go for looks,also ls2 fake ones come in abs material and not fibreglass,the original ff 350 is made of fibreglass.the tri composite shell comes in selected models only,i know all this coz the guy from whom i bought my ls2 gave me indepth knowledge about ls2 products by showing various pdf`s file on his laptop,i have seen the fake ls2 in person,cant divulge the person`s name for negative image,its your own personal choice from where to buy a helmet,i wouldn`t mind paying a few extra bucks and buy from authorised distributor,and you are right about DOT ls2,as long as its embossed inside the lacqeur its a genuine one.i have seen a vega helmet selling for rs250 on the roadside by a local vendor who mainly sit on highways,one cannot make out the difference at all,when i confronted him i will complain,he said"joh karna he kar lena"

Yes don't forget to post the review too. And people who are looking for helmet for their better half of GF, never ever purchase a helmet without them trying it out. Two reasons, not all high tech merchandise is gonna fit them and no one brand fits all. Literally wasted 2k for the same reason.

Just bought a LS2 Phobia from A.H. Helmets shop.

Lucky to got the owner at shop that time.






Got it for 2800rs after telling I'm an xBhp member.
Size : L

What we were talking here was a bit cheap prices.
The actual prices are more. :/
Atleast in Mumbai.

There was a Model with neck protector for Winter and to protect Neck from Wind too. But XL size only.

And being slim that was looking a bit big on me.

(I saw those adjustable Brake & Clutch levers there too. Are they reliable ?
The Price was 1100 for both.
Available in 3-4 colors.)

The color you've bought is almost what most of them have out there, including one of my friend. But as a customary, do post your ride reviews without fail.

Did you check with Megha Enterprises
Megha Enterprises :: www.shopsinbangalore.com

+1 Vijay, I bought my LS2s visor Yesterday from Megha yesterday. My model is called 'Evil Twin', its atleast 8 months old. So you might be able to find it over there.
Had to shell out 500Rs for it though.
Its directly opposite to the very famous MTR hotel.

You can find N number of shops in that street most of them stock LS2.

looking for a stockist that stocks spares/visors for previous LS2 Phobia. I bought it in Bangalore but couldn't find the visor now, as all are stocking new ones(Any suggestions in Bangalore would be highly useful

if the helmet is shipped to USA it will have the DOT certification.in India we have ISI.
many countries have defined their own sets of standards that are used to judge the effectiveness of a motorcycle helmet in an accident, and define the minimal acceptable standard.
Among them are:
DOT (USA),
ISI (India),
ECE(Europe),
Snell M 2005,
etc.
embossed inside the lacquer means printed/painted on helmet under lacquer(clear coat). it must not be a sticker.

You see the DOT, Snell sticker at the back, which means it is approved the crash test standards, which simply means your chances of surviving a crash on DOT and SNELL approved helmet is much more significant than a normal helmet without these ratings.

DoT means Department of Transportation of America enforced the law for safety standards, and their own standard tests which include basic tolerance for a helmet
SNELL to is the same, which does the same independently!
