Helmets

[Praj zm]

Did you really go through this thread buddy?

The answer to your query is just three pages back from here.

But still let me answer your questions. SOL is upwards for 5k, nothing less than 5k in SOL. For your budget you can look at Cross, LS2 or Studds Scorpion or Studds RHYNO, both are excellent VFM helmets and have all that you ask for.

LS2 Pistonhead and LS2 Phobia are the hot sellers here in this community followed by Cross and SOL. LS2 Pistonhead and LS2 Phobia both should come close to 3k max. Some seller sell it at a premium close to 3.5 to 3.9, in that case you can bargain a little hard.

But for more info, you can always go back this thread.

Least Wind Noise

Hi All,

looking for a new helmet. Could anyone please tell me which one has the least wind noise in the <4k options that are available to us, have tried a couple of cross and ls2 ones, didnt see much difference in wind noise when compared to ninja rhyno and vega boolean that I used previously. Please suggest.

You obviously asked and answered your question. At that price, don't expect MotoGP performance out of any helmets, and any helmets, even GP helmets do have wind noise associated with it. Wear the one which you comfortable with the wind noise.

Just to clarify, SOL starts at 4k with the SL48s.

Thats too bad, LS2 I would say is very irritating at triple digits, are SOL helmets any better?

SOL is not super good, but yes I guess. I've work the metal man series, and rode it 80 KMPH, I can hear some whistling on the top of my head, and yes I guess wind noise is not much or less than LS2. At least from the LS2 I've worn, the Phobia.

As I previously said, almost all helmets do have some noise component to it, you can't wipe them out altogether.

guys i bought ls2 phobia yesterday from balaji helmets jc road for rs2675/-
even my brother bought the same ff351 but different graphics
the posts in this thread helped me a lot
thanks guys for providing me info about the store address and the lid
i loved the ls2 when i first wore it
i came to know how important a good helmet was only after reading posts here in this thread previous i had a different thought that why should anyone spend so much money on a helmet like more than thousand bucks.
he told the same thing posted by others that cross,ls2,sparx,sol are manufactured in the same place ie in chaina
i argued that vega is manufacturing ls2 in different name as many guys said here but he said no anyways i stopped arguing and balaji helmets guys doesnt know about xbhp.
i also bought a sweet pair of gloves for 700rs from cross,
i love the gloves ill post he pics of the gloves in the evening

they didnt give me a bill
is it important to have bill
i should have taken it is it
thanks b7ackthorn for quick response and padfootmoon

[krish2778]

Congrats,
now please make sure that you get the bill, if you find some manbufacturing damages with the padding or paint flaking off soon, you can get it replaced, without bill, you cannot prove you bought the helmet from that retailer.
