Saw SOL helmet's pics on xBhp as well as on Team-bhp. I must say graphics are pure eye candy! i am almost sold for SOL

[vineetg84]

Yeah, even I think so!

But the price..... Someone bought it for 2600/- here in Delhi!

I'm not sure if its still available at that price.

Just rs2600?,it must have been the ff350 model

Here's a picture of my SOL SL-68S II.



Got mine from Chennai for 5k, including a tinted visor. The air flow cross-ventilation system is nice. That coupled with coolmax interiors make things comfortable. Wind noise till 90kmph is negligible. Visors are the best I've ever come across. Mine is size L. Only downside that I have faced till now is, after wearing it continuously for 4/5 hours, the upper portion of the ear starts to pain as there is no padding there. And I'm not a fan of the D-ring closure strap locks. I'm going to use this helmet only for touring purpose.

Overall, quite happy with the product. Plus, the cool graphics complement the mechanical appeal of my bike.

Do post the rear view of the LED section too, many people here ask to show the rear portion of the helmet with the LED on.

Nice buy by the way.

Go for SOL, cheap and best, you won't regret and best bang for the buck.

Cheers!

This model does not have the LEDs.

You're right. I was a confused between the SOL SL-68S II and SOL SL-68S.

Cheers!

Yeah. The metalman does not feature LEDs at the back and thankfully so. It'd have been even heavier. And the SOL helmets are slightly heavier than most high end helmets.

I have the orange-silver SL 68S-II and frankly the graphics are awesome. Compliments my duke well.

@A_n_i : dude why didn't you go for the orange silver considering that you ride a duke as well?
And was the tinted visor given as a goodie along with the regular one or you had an option to choose between the two for may be an additional amount for the tinted?
My lid cost me Rs 5200. Regular visor of course.

I opted for the silver/black one as orange would have looked odd with my other riding gears which are mainly black/white/grey. Besides, I have a custom stickered vega matt black motocross lid which matches the bike.

I have both the visors, regular and tinted. IIRC, price of a visor is 600/-

Not bad at all. Indeed for an entry level bike, the helmet is more than enough. As always, it's better to wear any helmet than nothing. That being said, the helmet sure is cool looking and should serve its purpose well.

You can upgrade if you feel you need to match your bike's color or your personality, then it's time for an update. If not, then this helmet is more than enough.

Cheers!

MC1 and gliders come under motocross type helmets, they won't sustain high speed wind blast, tested both, they cant cope above 80 speed
