**Drooling** Had saved some for a 4-6k helmet but damn it, now I don't want anything else!

Rossi's replica helmets were always out of budget (I am student) but this has inspired me to work hard and put aside some fund for this every month. Who cares if you have a Samsung Galaxy, right?

Damn. The AH helmets guys tells me that the new shipment of SOL helmets would arrive on 3rd/4th of May. It'd be a full month since I bought my bike. 600+ Kms without a helmet. I just hope I have a head when the helmet does arrive.
@sunnysideup : Hemant(owner) also told me the helmet would arrive at chennai tomorrow from tha US. True? and that it'd take 3-4 days for you to ship it to Mumbai? True?

why don't you try s.m studios in mulund for SOL and LS2 address and contact number is few pages back

actually i havent got the chance to use any other helmet in the similar price range,so couldnt compare it with others

after using the helmet for over 3000kms i can say that i am totally in love with the helmet.few points i would like to mention about the helmet:-

-fit n finish of helmet is awesome(especially the quality of paint)
-very snug fit(this is the way i like it)
-light weight
-very very less wind-noise(tested the helmet upto 200kmph)
-stable at high-speeds
&
-killer graphics(atleast i feel so)

attaching few pics of the helmet-










hope this helps

LS2 FF 351-7 diamond helmet

Friends,

got myself a LS2 FF 351 today. I was using a studds ninja "concept" helmet for last few months. I bought it with my new ride (GS150R). Being tourer / half face helmet, it was causing a lot of problems to me - lots of drag above 80 kmph, and additional dust and wind noise problem.

So it was time to upgrade to a real helmet. Thanks to the forum, I searched and found all kinds of helmet manufacturer and came to know that helmets can be upto 1000 USD .

Set my limit to 3.5 K. opted for good full face / flip open helmets.

Shops : Searched for good helmet shops but they are very few here @ kolkata that I know of. landed @ shops near Khanna cinema. Xbhpians from kolkata should recognize.

tried : Studds - rhino, LS2 - 2/3 variety. agv / kbc / sol were all out of my reach.

chose : LS2 FF 351-7 diamond.

cons : good snug fit, exactly @ my budget of 3K (that's what he quoted and did not move against my hard bargain), good noise reduction (still to test for speed abode 90).

overall very satisfied with the product.

next up - pictures and some high speed testing reports may be by weekend.

please confirm the price was ok or not.

Are you sure these^ are "CONS"
I got my diamond almost 2 years back at 3300INR, the new ones would not cost you more than 2800INR. Noise reduction is good still 120-130kmph, after that you would need another better helmet (have tested it at 190kmph)

Yah that is fine for me. Normally I cruise around 90. Attaching some pics.

I hope you arent serious. You seem to know the importance of buying a good helmet & are waiting for the new SOL lids and yet you are riding around without a helmet? For your own good, I would request you to either buy another helmet and then ride or refrain from riding all together till you get your hands on a SOL helmet.

@ Harsha - Great looking lid.
