Helmets

Re: Helmets

Did around 200km on the KYT RC7 Samurai. So far, so bad.

Wind noise as early as 55kmph. Exponentially increases with speed. Unbearable at triple digit speeds.
Very little padding. It's as if they put a layer of cloth/form so that your head won't come into contact with the shell.
The buckle for the D ring is almost near the lip. Way too high for my liking.
No chin curtain. A fly came in and sat on my nose (thankfully not the eyes) when I was at good speeds.
The sizing is a bit odd. I haven't measured the circumference of my head. I wear M Sized shirts and head is not out of proportion with the body. The L size helmet is a tight fit.


The only good thing is that it looks good. Was getting stares everywhere.

I purchased the same from Amazon but still haven't tried riding with it yet! I did notice open/close type of air vents in the top. Did you try closing them and check for wind noise?

Mine was a size L and it fit me perfectly when I put it on. Also I felt the padding was good enough.

Soumendra Jena...pm him or find him on fb. People here in Delhi have ordered helmets from him. And has got good reveiws.

I believe he imports most items to order(?) , hence 15 days or more delivery time, pricing seems OK compared to some others.

I had ridden only with the vents closed.

Re: Helmets

I stayed away from KYT because of little or no padding and got myself a THH which is much better than my old studds

Can you post padding pictures of your THH helmet?

I had ridden only with the vents closed.

Will try my RC7 Provent and post here soon.

padding is good better than my studds and the KYT helmets,Wind noise exist also whistling like sound when the visor is open(sometimes but its there),tested it on sunday ride not so good at triple digit speeds a little wobble is there.
For my use its good because I dont go out on rides frequently. Also the pads are removable

Helmets

Has anyone bought any stuff from www.sbkstore.in . I am interested in buying riding gears from them but they have such a huge collection that they have left me a little skeptical. It actually looks too good to be true.
If anyone has made a purchase from them, please share your experience. I remember someone ordering a helmet from them but i can't recall his name or i don't even remember where he had posted it. Was he chinmayankar or someone. I guess he had a ninja300.

I've bought via sbkstore.in
They are reliable. Got my Dianese V Guard knee guards from them. Customer service is good, they reply very soon to mails with queries, and the product arrived in perfect condition, properly packed, with a invoice and all

Tighten the D ring a little more and check if it still shakes .
