Re: Helmets
If you can manage till Bangalore, Helmet Paradise here has stock for HJC S size. But that's again a gamble as it's been two months since our last visit - better give'em a call before hand. If your visit includes a Sunday, we can help you with the location and buying process, evenings will do too. For most of these helmets, the inner paddings are changeable so it is advisable to check the fit then and there and you might get the perfect fit.Originally posted by sanjana k View PostBENEATH THE REMAINS.........

Re: Helmets
Good Day People!
This is Baibhav from Bhubaneswar.
I'm a biking enthusiasts and I'm planing to take a Duke 200 or a 390.
I currently have a Swish 125 and I'm using an LS2 FF358 Helmet.
Is it necessary for a Helmet upgrade ?
If yes I will choose between HJC and SOL! (Budget:₹10K-16K)
Looking forward for your valuable opinion.
Thank You.Last edited by BaibhavMishra; 11-30-2013, 11:11 AM.

Re: Helmets
It will largely depend on your riding style. However, it is advisable to upgrade for a better one and keep the LS2 for city rides. Reason being the most simplest of logic - With great power comes great responsibility, a movie tag which is widespread and stands true. And between the shortlisted ones, I would prefer HJC but SOL ain't bad either, choice is yours, mate! You just cannot ride the Duke super-slow in highways.Originally posted by BaibhavMishra View PostGood Day People!

The other day, an xBhpian friend who is by default an extremely slow rider was explaining on how he reached ~120 kmph before he saw the speedo & realize the same - Highways do that to you, not your fault. So it is always better to be in good gears at those speeds. BTW, he bought an SOL last day, this is FYI.BENEATH THE REMAINS.........

Very precious information.
Living at Bhubaneswar, I don't have the luxury of good helmet showrooms. So I planning of going to any metro city and purchasing one. I'm also giving preference with HJC over SOL.
Can you please mention out some particular models of HJC that would suit my budget ?
And yes I would be hitting the highway more often.
Thank You.

Re: Helmets
What is your budget? You might be knowing this that HJC retails at a higher price than SOL. The HJC CL and CS series model starts from around ~7000k and up. For a hassle-free online buy, you can contact Let's Gear up, Bangalore.

Re: Helmets
FG 15 sounds better because of fiber materials used in construction rather than just polycarbonate.Originally posted by snehithpereira View PostWith the budget that you have mentioned in the previous post, i would highly recommend the:
