Helmets

[Hyperion]

My friend bought the same MPA AGV for 2200 with rainbow visor!!

From where?

Do you leave your helmet on the bike dude???
I never do it. I usually like to find some shop which keeps helmets for an hours or so, He charges of course. If no such shops I dont go to such places

Actually, I usually don't!! Just see my luck. The one time I did and this is what happened.

In boolean you can replace both the visors easily. Just take to the same helemt shop, you bought it from, he'll heappily do that for you.

Really!?? Let's hope this guy can do it right. Thanks! Gimme a few more minutes will post the pics.

Guys! I need help with my Boolean. My bike got towed last Saturday. Luckily she was unscathed. But my Boolean was also on the bike. It was hung on my bike's saree guard. But due to all the lifting and tossing around of the bike to get it onto the van, my visor is left with some real nasty scratches. They are thankfully not in the field of vision. But I don't know how to replace it. Heck can I even replace it considering how it is mounted? I'm kinda wary of opening those side panels lest they become loose.

Will post pics by this evening.

Were you given a user manual with the helmet? It states how to dismantle the entire helmet!
Anyways, coming to the visor, you need to remove the side panels first. It is very easy, place a screwdriver between the visor&side panel&push softly outwards. When it comes out, you will yourself know how to go ahead!

Buddy, this is exactly the answer I was looking for. I prefer doing such things myself. BUT thing is i don't have any manual as such. Bought it from a local vendor. The bugger didnt give me any manual. So then I doubt he will replace it for me. Will have to ask some other dealer to get the visor for me.

Dude, if possible can you scan the manual's pages and email them to me? or atleast post the pics here?

Thanks a ton dude!

Sure, will do that-you'll have to wait till tomorrow evening for that, as I'm going for a ride tomorrow morning&should be back by afternoon.Its not at all tough, I've dismantled the entire helmet once or twice just for the heck of it!

Regarding AM helmets and ISI issue i'd like to mention that i'm using an AM since the past 3 years and its been through a few crashes. The padding is worn out but the shell has lasted pretty well! Its a good buy for the price!

Kwokfist,

Ideally you should have binned your helmet if it has seen a direct impact. Riding with a helmet that has taken a few crashes is like riding without one.

@ Bandhav: As mentioned by Maverick, my helmet is an Original AGV, it's Imported by MPA, but not made by them, as they have the other MPA AGV range. I paid about 7k for it. I only use it for my weekend rides, & not for my daily commute, for my daily useage I have the Cross one.

CHEERS,
G D

From where?

A.A. Helmets, Malad, Mumbai...he's an official supplier of Vega and Mpa here.

Guys... Some AS*(% nicked my vega lid from multiplex parking, so gotta buy a new one. My budget is 2.5-3k. Plz suggest a Good Helmet.
Thx in Advance.

[Sarvajit]

@saif71184: I would suggest you the 2.5K Vega lid. It matches up to most of the 'phoren' helmets.

@46wannabe: Sorry I could not post the pics tonight. Please PM me your email id&I will do it tonight. You can get yourself a visor in the meanwhile!

[46wannabe]

^^Ain't no sweat brother. Check your PMs. Ya, I still haven't managed to get the visor. Been busy with work. Let's see, will try this evening.


@Saif: Damn ya! Bloody miscreants!! Go for the Vega. Otherwise find out if the DSG stores in Mumbai are willing to sell the rest of their Daijyas at a lower rate.

YES people. The Daijyas are still around in the market. The MotoShop in Mumbai Central has the old stock left with them. Technically its not an old stock. Old in terms of not being the Marushin range. Which in my opinion is exhorbitantly priced. And to think I once thought the Daijyas were expensive!

[jayprashanth]

Saif,

If you can invest in 2.5-3 k for a helmet, you very well can buy yourself one of the flexible, rubber coated wire locks that sells for 100-150 bucks. It is very effective, removable immediately and doesn't leave scratch marks on your bike/helmet.

[Sarvajit]

@Puneet1: I would say go to a radium sticker shop&get some choice stickering done!

@46wannabe: Please PM me your email id. I deleted that PM by mistake!
