Helmets

Re: Helmets

Pune public, can you let me know the place where I can buy MT or SOL Helmets.

I already contacted stepin adventure but they have only 1 piece of medium size and that wont fit me.

Any other dealers please.

Cheers,
Sanjay

You can buy MT Helmets at Moto 101, Dhole Patil Rd. or MotoCentral, Nana Peth (9822449903). I guess ProBiker on MG Road keeps SOL Helmets, but not so sure about that. Just confirm before you visit.

Re: Helmets

Thanks [MENTION=65364]kdevdatta[/MENTION], I already brought mt blade racing livery from moto101, he was hell bent on selling me the MT against SOL. I do know both helmets are good, I was choosing SOL just because of its graphics against MT

Anyways, I just came back from moto101 and while coming I was riding at 90-100kmph, only a slight wind noise which was very acceptable. So far, I like the helmet very much partly because I paid a 5600rs and partly because it has less wind noise a boon for us riders

I am going to put up a detailed review once I have clocked some kms.

Cheers,
Sanjay

Re: Helmets

My THH TS-43 (M size) has arrived and it seems it's a size bigger or my head is a size smaller. Helmet is dead 1.5 kg. Putting helmet on head and taking off is very difficult so can't imagine how the S size will be. Head is fitting snug but the problem is with the cheek pads. Cheek pads needs to beefed up. Is there a way to increase the thickness of cheek pads? or to push them little inside by putting something behind them?

I checked online and no one is keeping S size helmets.

That is why it is always suggested to physically try the helmet and then buy it. I doubt that THH helmet has cheek pads available in various sizes.

You say its a snug fit, I suppose that is what is required in a helmet.

Cheek pads are removable, you can remove them add a layer of cushion and then fit those pads back, might work!

Re: Helmets

Hi guys. I am about to buy a helmet. Checked out some helmets at Probiker in Pune. Among Ls2 MT Sol and Kranos i decided to go for Ls2 phobia.
He has quoted Rs. 4200 for the same. It is new 352 model with change in vent design. Also has sharp 4 rating along with ece.
Is the 4.2k price correct?

Having so much debate on fake ls2 in market, you still want to go for it?

The reason i am not worried about it being fake is that Pro biker is a reputed seller in Pune. But i can be wrong.
Also helmet comes with 1 year warranty.

Finally bought the helmet. Below are some pics.

Again, asking for advice when people already made up what to buy. No point helping here, I guess

Hi
If you are referring to my post then i would like to say that i had 15 mins to make the decision and wanted to confirm if the price quoted is valid. I was in the shop when i posted the query and was hoping for some replies.

Re: Helmets

A reply in 15 minutes? Not everyone is on the site 24x7. Anyways now that you have bought phobia which sells at 2700 at most places, all I could say that, I hope you don't have to test it's genuinity the other way.

What if he actually bought a genuine piece? is it still sold for 2700?

Pro Biker is a known name in Pune, from what I can have read on this forum.

Have you read the fake LS2 thread?? If not, then do go through what the authorised dealer has to say to specific queries. And yes it still sells for 2700 here

Yes but purchasing a imported helmet with DOT certification with price tag of 2.7k would clearly show the quality.
Whereas purchasing from a authorized dealer with high price tag is not a big deal.

Please clarify which DOT helmet (not stickered) comes in 2700? The one here is ECE stickered, you being from Noida, must know how sticker works, right?
And again let them confirm how much Phobia costs from Laxmi, they will get their answers.
