    I have MT Axxis Geo 4 helmet. On a recent ride it got spots and bugs on its visors and shell. Which cloth should I use to clean it and spray (if any).

      Wipe it of with a wet towel or tissue first.
      Then spray some Colin and use a soft cloth.

      People do spend money on this also and buy 3M Cloth.
      That costs around 300-400.

      I'm using Colin and my handkerchiefs from 2+ year and its working. :P

        The Limited Evo graphic is also available in the AXXIS. And unless I'm mistaken, he paid Rs.4150/-.

                Is it
                worthless
                or
                good
                or
                can be used in city rides
                or
                Not recommended
                or
                highly recommended (for bikers with less budget)

                Please feel free to answer
                [ATTACH]183923[/ATTACH]

                Disclaimer- I have not purchased this so far but just curious to know general outlook on THH helmets.

                Thanks guys!!

                As far as my experience stay away from THH helmets, only the graphics on the helmet is good, my strap gave just after 2days, visor lock went kaput after 1week. Go for Mt helmets they're way better

                  Dunno man, my THH helmet is going strong. Saved me from 2 crashes. In budget category I found THH and KYT as the best bet, but again that's my perception. MT helmets are far better.but again they are costlier too.

                    Saved you for 2 crashes and still going strong ?
                    If the helmet have taken a hit in both the crashes, it might not be able to in the third one. A helmets structural integrity is compromised in a fall, which in turn protects the skull from the impact.

                    Ride safe and have fun.

                      I have got a mt blade and very happy with it.. But its rather heavy and cumbersome to get into and carry around while doing short stints in the city and going to office.. Looking for a cheap light weight lid, to ride around town.. I hear the only good local ones are studds shifter and axxor... Any comments on both? And anybother recommendations? Local shop in Mumbai selling me the axxor for 2400 is that a fair price?

                            Hi folks.. I've zeroed on to 2 helmets MT Blade & MT Matrix. I can't make up my mind on which to buy.
                            Here is the confusions... prefer the Blade cause of the internal visor.. Very much useful for me as I can't use sunglasses cause I have power glasses
                            Prefer Matrix cause it's lighter....

                            Please give your suggestions and comparison on these two helmets..

                            I am looking for something light in weight and has low wind noise...

                            Currently am using SOL Dual Sport which is quiet heavy when compare to both the above listed MT

                              Hi, even I would go with Blade as it has 2 visors and also I guess price is less than Matrix.
                              Matrix is supposedly light weight, if a heavy helmet is not a concern, I would opt for dual visor.
                              Honestly, changing visors for day and night is not something we would do regularly. hence...my suggestion for dual visor.
                              If you commute daily to office, on a bike,

                              Be a BIKER in your bike

                                I have tried on both the matrix and the blade.. Honestly, for the price, I did not find the weight to be much less in effect. Cannot comment about wind resistance as I have not tried it on ride. But with the price point and dual visor, and the fact that weight reduction was not too great, the blade was a clear winner for me.

                                It offers good wind resistance, and is fairly quiet. Wind noise could be an issue on 85+ speeds. But apart from that, its a good helmet.

                                Cheers!
