Depends from state to state.
Mainly, Dealer to Dealer.

The cheapest I've heard is 2600-2700 nowadays.
Then bargaining or something else might save some more.

Make sure you don't go for a too tight a fit and not too loose a fit. Make sure it is a certified one as opposed to cheap ones.

Make the investment a best one.

I had seen its black model with some speed-o-meter type graphics on it.

The price was 2300 and he himself said 2100 after discount.

The looks was decent enough to attract but then adding some more bucks and getting a LS2 was more attractive to me.

Re: Helmets

Guys as many people using vega or those who have used it tell, vega helmet's quality is that of a plastic mug.
Even I have been a victim.of vega show and no go.

I'd suggest Studds Scorpion or the Studds RHYNO, they cost in and around 1900 and are really good helmets. And if you can up your budget a little more you can get LS2. My suggestion would be LS2 first, then Studds then Vega. Not to undermine Vega as such, but personally I always haven't been a big fan of Vega especially when it comes to build quality.

I remember the time I enquired here for Vega Cara, people said they don't know about it.

But seriously guys.
That model is attractive.
And for the price it seems decent to buy too.
But yea have to check for the durability too if buyer can in front of seller.
I wasn't able to do.

Attractive isn't gonna work all the time. I used Vega GP 500 for close to a year, bought it for 400 bucks and it did its job well. But the quality isn't that good compared to Studds, even on my Ninja is a kick ass helmet and now both are resting peacefully in their graves.

But I agree, if you're a little stern on what you what you can almost always either buy or walkout from the store.

Re: Helmets

I am not sure if that was Cara or something..but when I went to buy a helmet, I saw a Vega lid priced at 2400. It was definitely attractive but one look at the quality of the padding, and I was convinced that LS2 at 2500 is WAAAAY better than Vega at 2400.

My Vega Formula 1 GPs padding was at it's worse. Gave up after three to four months of usage, but I used for well over year. And I can still feel how it stinked and how loose the front padding (the ones near your mouth was) give it a little pressure and it would almost peel.

I still remember using ANABOND and sticking it but that too gave up after I washed the helmet and upon drying you can see it peeling back once again. That's when I decided to spend some more and get something protective ( at least than a bucket)
