      Full face any day if you value your face.
      Ride more, browse less.

        Seriously bro?! You mean to say that you have gone through approximately 1300 pages with approximately 13000 posts in this thread, and you didn't find colossal debates on modular vs. full-face!



        Anyways, bigger & better brands may have modular models but full face is a generic preference due to its design. Simply put, you don't want to take chances with a modular. Having said that, sophisticated modular helmets are preferred by tourers for it's edge in convenience of flippin' open quickly for tolls, photography, conversations etc. along the way - In other words, you don't have to remove the lid completely for certain tasks. Choice is yours mate.

                        Hi... I am looking for a full face helmet between 2.5K - 4K. I have looked at MT axxis series on SPG website and liked its looks but I am unaware of other options within this budget except LS2 (which i don't want to consider).
                        My requirements from the helmets are, Reliability, Quality, Snug fit and less wind noise at speeds of 100-120 kmp/h.
                        Also the address of Authorised/Reliable helmet shops in Delhi..??

                              Please Help me find perfect helmet.

                              1) good helmet for FZ-FI. I want to know what kind of helmets look good on Naked Bikes!

                              2) I am a small person, my head size is 55cm ( as per the helmets standard ), sad that i dont see any good helmets in that size? do we have 'Small' size helmets? Please help.

                              Thanks!

                              Live like you mean it, then get a bike!
