    We have a friend at my place whom we call if we lose a key or forget combination for a number lock. He can open all those combination locks and others very easily. His room mates do not keep the keys with them and lets him keep the keys.

Get a new one. And from here on, make sure you carry it along with you or use a cable lock to lock (don't use helmet lock, it's very easy to remove along with the lock = more damages) the helmet in bike if you happen to be out for a long time.Cheers!

      yes bro, i know, just that i am more of a copy book style person, so i will take all the efforts from my side to investigate and search for my lost helmet. after that anyways i am going to buy a new one. can you share more light on how helmet lock can be removed easily..??

But for thieves it's just a matter of time. Yep, helmet bags are very useful, spend some 2k on them and it's always dangling about one's arse! Can be too flimsy to use about daily, but if it's just office to home, and vice versa, that'd be a nice proposition to work out with. Cheers! VJ
      never heard of the brand TYSON, where is it available..?? helmet bags rarely works,..... and home to office and back is never a worry as helmet is kept safely at my desk in office. the problem happens when you have to attend some function and you go well dressed, at that time you simply can not carry your helmet with you.

        TYSON was a local brand made in US, super kick ass locks, they don't have a website, and most people don't even know it. Unfortunately it was lost when we were shifting our house.

        Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl 'Will you marry me?'
        The girl said, 'NO!'


        And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.

              Why don't you just extend a thousand bucks more and get yourself a good certified one as opposed to cheap ones. You have Studds Ninja, Studds RHYNO, Studds Scorpion, Cross etc in your price point.

                  SOL,Daija, TIH, KBC,Sparx are a few options. If possible try it out directly in person rather than online shopping. it must be snug fit.

                      Basically both are the same. But ls2 is lighter and more preffered. So make a choice.

                        • I enquired with AH Helments in Mumbai for SOL SL68s II for which he quoted the price as 5,200 INR while the Website: http://spartanprogear.com/ shows the prices to be 4,575 INR. This is a vast difference and when I further enquired, the guy said it's because state wise Tax and Cess changes but even if that is the case I don't think that this much difference should be there.

                            If you order it from the website, it'l cost you almost the same. i.e 4575 + 700(shipping) = 5275. Even I have have the same helmet and stay in mumbai. I had ordered it online but was lucky as a friend was coming to Mumbai, so the shipping charges was cancelled. If you have any friend staying in Chennai or Banglore and is coming to mumbai, you can ask him to get it for you. Or simply buy it from A.H.

                              Harsh - shipping rates have come down since you bought your helmet. It is now Rs.500 for insured courier.

                              Doon - the rates on the website show the prices without taxes or vat. It is mentioned on the site. In Chennai there is no tax on helmets, so it costs only Rs.4575/-. In the case of Mumbai, there is VAT, Octroi and CST, which amounts to about 14 -15% more. If you know your size, you can save a bit by ordering online.
