Re: Helmets

Is there a website for LS2 helmets listed with the Indian prices?
Just like we have for Studds?

No, haven't seen one so far. That's why the price is highly fluctuating from place to place.

Re: Helmets

Hi Frnds,

I was looking for a good Helmet and got suggestions about getting a HJC Helmet from 2-3 experts.

I had finalised it,but got to see the helmets from Airoh on Bachoo Motors website.
There are lot of options available from Airoh and many colour options too, which
will go nicely with my bike's colour.

How good is the Airoh Brand for helmets?

Should i go for HJC or Airoh?

AIROH and HJC are both good helmets. AIROH is a tad costlier due to the Italian tag attached to it, but a very good helmet indeed, lightweight and fit and feel is excellent. HJC and AIROH in my opinion, when it comes to basic helmets, they both fair together, nothing to praise, nothing to depreciate. But I'd suggest you look at HJC from PRS at it retails at about 7.5k whereas AIROH starts at close to 8k and above.

I'd personally suggest you to try AIROH for fit if you're buying it in person, becuase I usually wear a L sized helmet, and my AIROH L was way too tight on my cheeks, whereas my other helmet was spot on fit. Don't buy AIROH helmets online *if you're not sure how the fit would be*

HJC doesn't have sizing discrepancies like AIROH does, and really cool helmet. I love the colors offered by HJC.

My opinion if you ask me, go for HJC.

Cheers!

I will personally visit the store for trying on Helmets.
Will compare both the helmets there, with the very little experience i have on Helmets......

I was looking for a white helmet as i have a white bike (security is main concern then looks).

HJC have this HJC Helmet - CS-14 G SKULL MC10 mentioned in their website. But, didn't like the graphics on it much.

Any reviews on this?

Personally I am fan of white and red colors, and I'd suggest you to choose what *you'd* like and how you feel in what colors. Go for the ones you love either HJC or AIROH depending on fit, comfort, and price.

Re: Helmets

Been planning to get a LS2.
Tried to search online, and online prices are 4k+ . :/
Did browse over this thread and got some vague idea about prices..
Anyways, before hitting the helmet store, thought of asking my Xbhp mates.

I have a thing for matte paint, planning to get something matte'ish in LS2 and my budget is 3.5k, would stretch if the product is awesome..

I did like Phobia (grey) & i did see a guy wearing it Matte finished.
But black would be very much preferable, doesn't matter even if its completely black / with graphics (matte ofcourse).

Any suggestions?

If you are ready to go for ls2 at 3-3.5k . I would try and encourage you guys to check out Tih helmets, they costs the same and the build quality of the helmet is way superior than the ls2. Has proper protective rating too.

LS2 -- and as I've said this before has always been kind a mickey-minnie type priced stuff. On a fine day, you can get it at a really cheap and the right price and some day the seller just quotes crazy prices. LS2 as a helmet is sold at different prices at most of the prices. I know LS2 have sold for 2.5k slowing climibing the ladder to 3k 3.5k and even 4k. But 2.5 to 3.5K should a figure you expect from most shops. If you can bargain well, you can definitely bring to 3k max depending on the prices quoted by the guy.

P.S. Do not buy any helmets from eBay, especially LS2. The prices quoted are exorbitant and if, in case get a wrong fit, or the helmet is damaged, the aftermath process is pretty much cumbersome process and a drain on your pockets, my personal suggestion.

Try the fit personally and if everything works out, then go for it.
