Re: Helmets Under 3000 Rupees (Indian) for every biker.

You're right.. almost.. it's touching the tank... Is that a wrong position..?
Tapped from my HTC.

The helmet should touch the tank just for the support , that too while doing long stretches, or else just tucking behind the visor is enough. And if even touching the helmet moves it over your head, sorry to say, your helmet is not of correct size.

Ls2 Indian brand or import. Also where to buy and price. How to know the perfect size by measuring.

Ls2 helmets good or bad ??

Mt has good helmets means? mt a brand? also vega, studds, aaron, steelbird or any brand that provides dot certification under 3000 rupees helmet. I just can't trust ISI standards so preferring a dot standard full face helmet with dual visor

1) Have you tried searching the forum or google first before you shoot questions? Its not difficult to use few minutes in doing that first.
2) What is the reason that you dont trust ISI standard? Studds Rhyno and Shifter is one of the best value for money helmets if some is tight on budget.

Buddy, its easy to ask questions and get all the answers on the plate all served up. If after all the homework, you dont get the answers, then you can come back and put your queries here.

You simply cannot Indian brands with Isi certification are bad you have many good helmets by studds Vega as mentioned by others. Other than Vega axor not sure if anything else comes with dot certification. If you are tight on budget studds shifter Vega axor are a good buy. As suggested by other members have a read through of all discussion I was looking for went through all of it and now have a good idea of things

This forum contains 1300 pages, so searching is a bit difficult for me.

I don't trust ISI cause standards are sold/brought in my country and not maintained by companies. Our law never checks manufacturing quality or manufactured quality of a product.


Same reason why everybody prefers a Japanese bike than a TVS one.

Re: Helmets

how are shark helmets
?
saw some decent helmets
im drawn towards the scott redding's graphic scheme
it looks killer in that arma energy logo

and how are airoh helmets ?

I read, you ride a Street Triple. Can you tell me the budget figures so I can actually suggest what helmet you should order ?

There are a few shops here in Mumbai where you can buy authentic gear without worrying about fakes. First is the PlanetDSG store that has opened up in andheri. They'll have the jackets that are cheap to the expensive Alpinestars etc. also have a very good range of helmets.
Then Moto101 is a new store opened up at Bandra, they also have a good range of stuff and run by very nice people who are bikers themselves. They stock the MT helmet range as well as HJCs and good range of gloves and helmets.
Then coming to South Mumbai, there is Performance Racing Store at Tardeo which has very good stuff, but most of it is very expensive side (most of their helmets start at 15k onwards) and just opp that is Bachoo Motors which is my personal fav. Bachoo has a very good range of affordable branded safety gear, you should try that.
All these have their own dedicated FB pages, which you should check out first. Also see JV Promoto at Bandra East.
Cheers

Aadil, I guess, you have ordered a set of ear plugs from our store last week or so.

Ok, then let me help you with basic search regarding LS2 fake or genuine (Let me google that for you)
Studds helmets (https://www.google.co.in/search?q=st...ial&channel=sb)

And now coming to ISI standards...Just answer a simple question : Do you eat/ wear/ travel only in Japanese made things? If not then you should now hand-pick only Japanese items for these things as you dont trust Indian Standards.
What is the proof that the DOT/ECE helmet you will get will not be a stickered one?
Its a matter of personal choice when it comes to choosing, so stop judging that one is good and other is bad or vice-versa.

P.S : I am a TVS owner, and after 50k kms on odo and torturing its still going good than others who have bought Japs (no offense to owners, just giving an example).

Though Prateek has made the point I would like to put in my 5 cents outright rejection of ISI or indian make is totally wrong.I have been riding a Bajaj bike for past 14 years and wearing the same ISI certified helmet Safe.So your outright rejection is misplaced in my personal opinion.With regard to being new even though I am a member of the forum for more than a year I still pretty new and if I need something I need to search read and research.My kind advice/suggestion to you is research analyse before you conclude.

Its not that I hate Indian make/made, reason for not trusting is personal and logical at the same time, its true that a dot helmet might be a fake one I buy, but do remember that the Indian manufactured duke 390 got rim breaking issue but the same which is manufactured here and exported in Europe didn't reason is they thoroughly test a product before handing it to a customer whereas here quality checks are not done properly. Who checks whether an isi standard helmet is actually made according to the standard? We don't have an authority to do that, even the higher authority police doesn't know of dot standard, harassing superbikers now and then:banghead:

Re: Helmets

Well for the of argument I can quote loads of examples but would be OT.I would simply conclude saying all that is Indian aint bad and similarly all that is international does not need to be good.Finally boils down to personal choice requirement budget comfort and all other related factors period

Re: Helmets

@Jagzxbhp : Ok now that you taken the Duke issue, let me give you some facts. CBR250R introductory lots had problems, oh yes, its a Honda, Japanese.
2014 R1 lot had issues, and company recalled some of them for rectification, oh yes, its a Yamaha , a superbike, Japanese.
You want more such things, but then I would be going OT which honestly I dont want.

We have given you the name of the Helmets, with links too, now if you are defending your theory of ISI being bad, go through those, get some research done and then decide.
And even then if you want to be spoon-fed, I hope members here will be more than happy to help you.
PERIOD. Done with your case. Ride safe on your Indian Bajaj

P.S : Mods, sorry for being rude, but I guess the guy wanted everything without even doing his homework.

Re: Helmets

True to that :thumbup: . BTW saw the vega axor. Seems good to me . will buy it so that Indian and foreign standards don't fight again as it has both isi and dot . thanks for the suggestion brothers. It fits my budget .
