    Shifter has secondary visor which is very useful in the summers and riding during the day. Plus if you have troublesome traffic police then it's better to take ISI certified helmet.
    Or make an ISI sticker by yourself and go for Kranos. [emoji6]

        Afaik it's the best in that price range.
        LS2 & MT starts from 4.5k.

        And that sticker part am serious about that. My dad had an studs helmet 5 years ago. The ISI logo in it was just white reflective sticker.

        As soon as I get my helmet am gonna add KTM & ISI sticker to it. [emoji23][emoji23]

            Update : after placing the order I didn't receive any confirmation email post which i called on their customer helpline number.
            After following for 2 days finally they came up with "no stocks available and hence order is cancelled "
            They said they will be getting the stocks in another 2-3 weeks.
            Back to ground zero 🙁
            I am desperately looking for a helmet with M size.

                    Hi chans02,
                    I have checked the above link, it's showing a shopping cart link on the top right corner. Try after creating a user account using the link next to it.

                    Link for account creation: Studds Accessories Ltd.

                      Hey [MENTION=80682]Nidin[/MENTION]
                      After trying all available options i have approached the forum and even after account creation there is no place on the site where you can place the order.
                      I think I will end up buying MT axiss S size if they get the matt black stock here in pune dealership.
                      Currently matt black S size is out of stock 🙁

                        Anyone using a Studds Downtown full face helmet here?
                        I've ordered one to replace both my old city helmets...Studds Marshall and Ninja 2G.
                        Reason for replacement? Just bored of using them. Though they're perfect inside and outside.

                        Wanted to know:
                        1. Is the chin portion easy to remove?
                        2. Does the internal visor have a knob on the outside or is it a pull down type like the Shifter?

                        P.S. Before anyone asks, this helmet will mostly be used on my Fiero.
                        I have a Studds Shifter for R15 and LS2 FF352 for R3.

                          It has a knob on the left side behind the visor mounting point.

                            An kind suggestion. Go for an bright coloured helmet. It ll make your presence good on roads. Guy with Orange helmet is easy to notice than full black.

                              Thanks shyam for suggestion.
                              In night riding the utmost important piece required is a reflective material. I wish to go with some customization(whic can be altered anytim)which is only possible on matt black. And for sure i am gonna make use of some reflective material in it.
                              Again i am looking for tarmac one full black jacket and matt black helmet will compliment it. [emoji16]

                                Not only in nights. Even in day time it's good to have a bright coloured helmet. Visibility matters. I keep my parking lights on all the time & headlight ON while in highways for this purpose.
                                An car driver looks for another car while changing the lanes and not bikes. And if you were driving in blind spot area it's real difficult. There are 2 blind spot areas in car IMO.

                                1. Is diagonally behind the car near rear boot/door an meter away from car.

                                - (slight off topic)usually drivers in our country adjust ORVM inwards facing cars body Cz most of them thinks that ORVM is for that purpose. In bumper to bumper traffic it's ok but in open roads ORVM's should be faced outwards. Some drivers use an small convex glass in mirrors for this purpose. But without using them it can be perfectly adjusted. Google "how to adjust car mirrors for blind spot"
                                - Even for bikes mirror adjustments are important. It's not possible to have complete field of vision you either lose what's on your back or side. Best bet (in India where we ride on left) is you have to adjust left mirrors for what's on back & right mirrors for what's on (sides) blind spot.

                                2. A-pillar of car. No remedies other than playing peek-a-boo inside car.

                                But in both case of you are visible by brighter gear & headlights on (more important) it's easy to notice.

                                Even I love full black riding gear which looks cool on road & no need to wash often.

                                You could buy an full black gear for local rides to parties for show off.

                                Matt black helmets won't show sexy streamlines of helmet. It looks like vega ₹800 helmet. But that's just my opinion. Go for what you love bro.
