But again flip ups are not recommended since the movable part tends to harm your face during a crash. I was using Boolean and last year during a crash the movable cover cut my lips below the nose. So if you can afford go for Daijya....

Thanks Sid, actually its such that one of my freind told me , during a fall the visor can break into you and hurt your face. So I was thinking a double visor would be safer.

It's a good initiative first of, most would gladly help. But make sure your post survey link just once and let interested members fill in the survey, in that way it's easy, effective and nuisance free. If you happen to ask everybody to PM, most of them won't be able to fill in your form.

Just post one link and forget about it, rest is upto members hands.

P.S. If you don't get the results you intend to even after posting, kindly please do not repeat the same thing asking for members to fill in your survey, just for the sake of thread integrity. Thanks

Cheers!

I cannot comment about the visors from low- end Indian helmets but the ones that are used on most imported helmets are made of polycarbonate which is unbreakable. The ratchet systems of certified helmets are designed to snap or pop off in case of an impact.

Double visors just have an internal visor which covers your eyes acting as sunglasses. So if you want o go for dual visor, you can get Daijya(Rs. 4750), Nuvo(Rs.6000) or SOL(Rs4000). These are the full face helmets with dual visor.

I think basically the shells are the same in SOL series, it's just a little features here and there that makes the difference. But if you're looking for SOL, my favorite would be the SOL68S Dragon, kick ass helmet.

Love for matt colour is ok but if u buy a helmet with reflective visor its strongly suggested to keep a clear visor for night rides ..B.P roadies is a good shop you will find varried options for helmet there..my LS2(FF 358 celtic blue) came with just a ECE sticker(never tried peeling also :P) but it never seemed fake..

1. if u buy a helmet with reflective visor its strongly suggested to keep a clear visor for night rides


2.my LS2(FF 358 celtic blue) came with just a ECE sticker(never tried peeling also :P) but it never seemed fake..

Can you please elaborate the above points?
HOw much did it cost at B.P.Roadies? and what is a ECE sticker?

[B7ACKTHORN]

...a ECE sticker?

An ECE sticker is a safety standard which makes sure the helmet you buy is of international standards, unlike local egg shells (literally, don't start off a war please ) we buy out there. These standards set forth for the safety of us, riders.
