Helmets

[BikerB0y]

Thank you Sunnyside_up! for all the time you spent in making this post! I did research about various helmets offered these days and spent good money to tank-up my ride to experience numerous helmets at Chennai and B’lore. I rode thrice to B’lore only to check some helmets. All these 25 years I bought nothing I don’t like or that sit idle in shelf.

As you said, it is the MONEY that spent on the helmet made me to post a stupid question. LS2 and cross shielded my HeaD for the last two years during various rides [3k was the maximum money that I paid for a helmet]; the latest crash forced me for another lid. My ride is with RE Service Center waiting for the spares to show-up and in the mean time I am gearing up for my next trip during November.

I for sure smile whenever I see my apple with the sticker on the case that says “designed by Apple, California. Made in China”. I knew most of the products are made in China for good number of reasons, I admire their skills and workmanship especially “to replicate” but for some reason I did skipped my purchase the other day “May be I am not all set to spend 5k on a lid”. Your post helped me to make up my decision and I feel HAPPY to shell that 5k on a lid!

Nice reading your post and thanks again!!

Daijya is a brand I guess owned by PlanetDSG themselves for the most part. I've searched about it myself and couldn't get any valid production proof. They just mass produce them in China with this name as the other helmets.

Cheers!

Just the usual marketing gimmick with an unusual name.

Guys, I lost my Ninja. Want a new lid immediately. Can somebody suggest me a good one, in the range of 2-2.5k (even 3k if it matters). In Delhi.


BTW, I found this below image from this thread's history. I like it. Its Vega I suppose. Rahul Menon had this I know. How much for this?

[prateek2210]

Its too heavy and getting visor is a problem for this model. You can get LS2 or Cross from Chopras in 2500-3000 range

Re: Helmets

Hi Guys

I am planning to get basic ride gear for my GF as we are planning to go for a inter state ride coming Friday. So, just planning to get a Helmet and a comfy jacket for her.
Budget is a little constraint here. For jacket & helmet around 3K each. At max i can strech my budget to around 7K for both.

Please provide your suggestions for a nice helmet that would be comfortable for her in long journey.

guys need urgent help.. is there any chance of finding the same ls2 helmet anywhere in india??

[djay99]

Bought a KBC VR Laguna II ECE R 22.05 certified helmet. This is oficially imported by PRS Mumbai. Paid Rs 8000 to Helmet Paradise.

Product Description:
Helmet Paradise guys were convincing me to buy LS2 telling me that LS2, Sparx, KBC are of same quality. Looks like they have good margin in LS2.
