    Thanks VJ, for that info. I didn't check online. Anyways, I would say the build quality is very good than Vega and most others out there. My choice was split between an LS2 Burn 'something' which had this pump at the jaw which could be used to expand the padding, much like an inflated balloon and this TIH one.

    Went looking for Piston head, but it was out of stock. TIH cost me 3250, where the LS2 is priced at 3400 with only one visor, either clear or tinted.

    TIH has this inner tinted visor which could be pulled up when it's needed. Pull up the clear and use the tinted one or pull up the tinted and use the clear one OR use both. No hassles with changing the visor.

    TIH also has reflectors at the back, white in colour. This also has a visor lock which will lock the visor from being pulled up by wind. With air vents at mouth and temple it's good, I guess. Yet, am writing this without riding wearing it.

      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.

        Yes, rightly put. I love all my helmets.

        I love the not-at-all-used-currently-Steelbird helmet so much that I wear it when I'm cutting really big sized onions. Initially, my roomie used to laugh on me, but a recent incident of him cutting those "big" onions made him cry so much that he now wears his Vega (the spare one) alongside me.
        [P.S - Idea taken from an FB pic]

        He he.. Crazy bachelorhood!
        Got a $5 head? Get a $5 helmet.
        Because everyone who passes, isn't a martyr!

            Yup! Amen to that.
            I remember that fb pic. Lol.

            BTW, I took it out for a ride. And it's amazing. No whistle noise. I can't compare it with an LS2 though. I have never used one.

            • Guys, I just read a news in a Malayalam daily's online edition about a guy getting hurt by an exploding helmet. Apparently he kept the helmet with his bike for about 2 hours and while on the way back the helmet broke on its own breaking that man's nose. He also has bleeding from his ears. The helmet is said to have ISI marking on it. The pic is given but cannot identify it and it's not feom any known brand I guess.

                Strange, might be some locally made 300rs helmet that they sell by the road side. Still, exploding ? Lol...!!! Wonder how..

                  Eh! Helmet exploding? What did they swap the helmet filled with gun poweder for someone else and it accidentally was bought my someone else. Helmet exoding, lol, I think this got to be a case study. Ridiculous!

                      Haha. Yep! This one got cracked with force and his nose got broke and the paper said blood was oozing from his nose and ears! It got cracked open at two sides it seems. That's one hell of an explosion, right?

                        ROFL! Paper said there was an explosion Seriously, unless the cheek pads were filled with gun powder. Did you say ears? By now he should have been dead if such an explosion occurred in the first place and caused his ear to bleed. This could definitely be fake, at least.

                        Seriously my "brain aches" thinking about how a helmet can explode.

                          Just people trying to get themselves noticed with anticts, probably the helmet was a defective peace and broke and the guy added some mirchi to his story and the papers gleefully printed it to sell more copies of theirs with this cock and bull story...!!

                          • Looking for a good helmet priced around 3-3.5k. Tried out the ls2 ones . Is the one that has inflatable cheek pads good? also do any brands offer both clear and smoked visors with the helmet?
                            Any one from pune here knows when the planet dsg shop will open , its under some restoration work

                                Its same as I called up DELL on their Toll-Free number.
                                I said my LCD is getting hot and I don't feel like using it anymore. Can I have a Replacement ?

                                Boy replied : No Sir. We can't until it does not stop working.

                                _____________

                                I called up again in evening.

                                Me : Sometimes I see 1-2 mosquitoes from inside my LCD, WTH should I do ?
                                Girl ( on other side ): Sir, you mean to say you think the seal from back is broken ?
                                Me : Maybe. I just play game, I don't know anything about it. And it irritates me when I play game.
                                Girl : Sir please note down the reference number and send your proper address to the email ID I'm giving & we will replace in next 5 days.

                                Problem ?
