      Hi buddy,

      I have LS2 FF322 voltage. The helmet overall is good, but the wind noise above speeds of 80-90 kmph is alot. One of my friends has SOL, and says that he doesn't have any major wind noise. I have no personal experience with MT so can't comment on that.

      I would prefer you to go for either MT or SOL (basically because of less wind noise).

          Thanks . I went to a shop in koperkhairne Sai traders yesterday he suggested me LS2 and even told me it is difficult to get accessories of MT and SOL so if I go and buy any helmet of MT and SOL just ask the shopper will he be able to provide any accessories in future for these helmets.

                      Go to a store and try on some helmets, it'll help you make a better choice on which one to buy. You'll get to know the size that fits you and then you can go ahead with buying online, but theres always a chance of helmets being fake/ duplicates, i would prefer buying from an authorized retailer.

                        Hi All
                        Sharing this for the benefit of anyone in the market for a helmet. Recently checked out the MT, KYT, LS2 and SOL brand of helmets in Pune. For my head size, comfort, etc. finalized the MT Blade helmet. Also somehow only the MT helmet had both DOT and ECE certifications.

                        Really liked the SOL helmets as well, but felt the MT was better built, seemed more aerodynamic and that it was slightly cheaper as well. MT blade was 5650 and the SOL helmet was 6300.

                        Picked up the helmet from Pro-bikers, in camp, Pune.

                        Regards

                          How is the quality of the helmet? Since how long are you using it? Any flaws like internal visor getting loose etc?

                              Hi...I got my SOL lid online...
                              You have to contact SOL India on fb first...
                              They will tell you to browse www.solhelmets.com and select the helmet ...
                              Mr Tushar was very helpful and shipped it immediately(on just showing him proof of payment) once I transferred money to his account..
                              The store is in Mumbai and I had it delivered to my place in Gujarat...
                              Check out my helmet pics several pages before if you are interested in the same model as mine...
