Helmets

[Samshalu]

Not necesorrly only in cochin, its available in many places, have seen a lot (trust me, a LOT) of them around Trichur,Pattambi, Kunnamkulam area. So im guessing its readily available in other parts of kerala too. Do search around in a few helmet shops. Youll find it for sure.

Planning to sell my SparX S07 helmet(The Master). Done around 10 rides/6 months with this(not my daily use helmet). Bought it for 8.5K. Size is (M).
Reason for selling is while wearing spectacles is not comfortable inside this helmet because this it has snug fitment. Anyone interested PM for the price.

4550 + 550 for extra visor
You can check it here - Full Face - SOL Helmet India

Funny thing is SL68S is costlier than SL68S2. I presume that the latter is more advanced .But wondering why is it priced less. Do you know what are the differences between SL68S and SL68S2?

Also is the price 4550 inclusive of all taxes? Where did you purchase it from?

[harsh_66328]

I searched their website but could not find this particular SL-68 S2 model. Infact there is not SL68S2 listed on the website.

Also is the price 4550 inclusive of all taxes? Where did you purchase it from?

You click 'next' button and go to the second page. The helmet is mentioned there. The cost is including everything except the shipping charges which depend on where you live. I had ordered it online.

Actually when you order online, you will be charged shipping charges separately and also be advised that any state levies like Octroi if charged by the state authorities would be to the buyers account. Of course in some cases, Octroi might be missed.

Please note that the site clearly mentions that the local taxes and levies (like Octroi) will be extra as applicable to the state/territory that you live in. Chennai has no VAT on helmets, so it is the cheapest place to buy helmets!

You're absolutely right! The SL68SII is cheaper because is does not have the LEDS.

They are good but don't go for flip ups, rather go for full face ones. What is your budget btw?

If you are lucky enough you can get LS2 at 2600-2700. Or another option can be studds scorpion or vega shadow (little heavy)

LS2 will easily come under 2.5k. Got my LS2 Dragon's Den 2 days back for 2.9k (helmet + extra visor)

Seriously, i havent had a single situation were a cop pulls someone over and check or isi mark on the helmet. Here all they see if he has something on his head, the frying pan model helmet will also do. They are not concerned of if its isi marked or anything at all. For all i know you can wear a cracked helmet and they would be least concerned.

Even in Karnataka no cop checks ISI mark. But am going for a 3000+kms one way ride in a month covering all the way to North East. So just worried if any particular state cops pulls me over!

Even here in Delhi NCR no one from xbhp has been stopped for ISI stickers, some of here has copied the ISI stickers on Vega and got it printed and glued to the side of LS2
