      Please suggest me good helmet meeting ECE standards under 4k.
      Graphics is not concerned.
      Can anybody tell me about LS2 FF386 modular?
      When I asked Bachoo motors for LS2 they said they dont keep chinese helmets.
      They gave me alternative of vega axor range for LS2, whereas axor meets only DOT standards.
      I am confused.
      Please help me.

        VJ - would you care to elaborate why? As in apples to apples comparison?

        thats a strange comment for him to make considering that RJays helmets are made by MHR, the same company that makes LS2.....

                    With all due respect sir, glad to hear from you. Perhaps not an apples to apples basis but HJC AGV and SOL I've had the opportunity to wear all these lids and inspect them closely. And I've found the latter two comparatively good. Not to diss SOL, a very good helmet to reckon with, but the devil is in the details. I would suggest SOL for folks that are budget oriented, but not everyone.

                    But anyone who has upped their budget, why not them get a premium helmet, genuine one of course.
                    And not to beat a dead horse, but you very well know most of the top end brands, including certain items from your own stable are perhaps conceived in China in some way or the other. Just because Dainese is outsourced to Chinese doesn't make them Chinese brand. And the Apple Ipad/iPhone you have is a very good example of that right. LS2 is headquarted in Spain, but perhaps Bachoo might be misinformed. The common notion is LS2 is Chinese, but the fact that almost everything we have is Chinese is nullified.

                    But differentiating and inspecting before purchasing a product is one way where a consumer can discern a product for what its worth.

                    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.

                        You can try Priya Helmet house and Sunshine Helmets, both in Teen petrol pump area in Thane.
                        Both shops have a good reputation for stocking original helmets and its accessories.

                          LS2, SOL, Cross are all very good entry level helmets, the former being the favorite budget helmet, followed by SOL with very good funk graphics and good helmets. Cross is on par in their low level helmets, but good on their high end helmets.

                          LS2 Phobia is the cheapest approved helmet (subject to RRP) and used by many here, it's a good choice.

                          Cheers!

                            Steelbird is a good helmet too, but Studds Ninja 3G is an excellent helmet and now their new launch Studds Downtown is based on the same platform from what I happen to examine, but with just a slightly modded design.

                            Steelbird or Studds, both are good, but I'd suggest Studds Ninja.

                                Good choice made brother.
                                In our city sporting a half face helmet will be such a worse.
                                I am going to buy LS2 386 modular.
                                You must look for it.
                                Nice features, ECE standard and also fits for your pocket.
                                I think priya motors from thane sells original LS2.
