    Could someone point me to good helmet painter/rework in Bangalore. I have a white open face Vega Helmet with some numerical graphics, that I wish to get re-worked with military camouflage design.

    Thanks.
    You could locate a 3M film shop that does some film wraps and get those done on the helmet, u can have these removed or changed later down the line incase u want to a change of look. easily removable from what i hear. heres a link of a place in Pune, though i am sure that u may find similar stuff in Bangalore if u searched.

          I have a flip up in Aaron, but the padding is non-removable. I think ACE's padding too is non-removable, if it's the same, then you should get a better one, which fits snugly. A loosy, dangly helmet is a big no no.

          Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl 'Will you marry me?'
          The girl said, 'NO!'


          And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.

                In Flips ups you have Studds Ninja, in full face you have Studds Scorpion and Studds Rhyno or in some models in Cross.

                      • Hi,

                        This is my first post at xbhp. I needed some information about the model FF 370 LS2 helmet(Modular front flip type). I just purchased the same for Rs 4300 from Megha Helmets Bangalore(Opp MTR). He quoted Rs 4500 initially. Wondering if I was taken for a ride.
                        I had read in some other forum someone getting a FF 386 for Rs 4700 at the same shop. If anyone has any information on this model please share the same. The normal models at his store were quoted at Rs 3250.

                        • Hey guys,

                          posting after a very long time. My GP one helmet needs to retire, one accident and helmet alone spill later. I loved the helmet but the visor was useless. Now Looking for a new helmet. I like the LS2 FF350 series. I would go for one the clear visor but would love to have a mercury tinted one as well.

                          The guy here in bangalore quoted 2.6K for the LS2 Helmet and 500 Rs for an extra visor. Any pointers whether this is the right price?

                          cheers!
                          sai

                          EDIT: Oh yeah, Also how do I check the genuineness of the helmet. The shop is Megha enterprises, Bangalore.

                            Sir, I bought my helmet from the same place a week back. An LS2 Phobia FF350. 2600 bucks is the right price. You can negotiate a bit for the visor though. My LS2 has a mercury tinted visor and I bought it for 2.7k, hence a 100 rupees less for the same helmet is a very good price.
                            Got a $5 head? Get a $5 helmet.

                              2.6K is absolutely a very good price for the helmet. Considering there are a lot of rip-offs even upto 3.5k for LS2. I guess, it's justified. And mind you it depends on models too, some basic models are low, some modular are a tad costlier in the 3k range.

                              Yes, as I previously posted, there are some price differences in the range and models of helmets.

                                Hi,

                                Need a helmet in the 2.5k range, I'm from Pune. Used a Vega Boolean for a year, when I bitter quarrel with a drunkard in Hinjewadi took my helmet away.
                                Anyway, is it possible to get hold of an LS2 FF350 or FF351 in the mentioned price range? It would be great if someone could point me to a dealer too. Hope I'm not asking for much, thanks!
