There​ is an air vent above the helmet , does it create problem in rain ? There is also a heat extractor at back, how is that ? Finally , how is the fogging issue in the helmet ?

        A good VFM helmet, spares are easily available. Visor comes with pinlock and is great. Padding is good quality. Air vent doesn't create any rain problems. No fogging since pinlock works great ! Go for it.

                Price? And could you please compare this with standard 4-5k rupees wala helmets like LS2/MT etc.


                Also if anybody knows any source from where I can get a new inner liner padding for LS2 helmet please do share. Saw on amazon but it's not available currently.

                  currently using MT BLADE and HJC CL17
                  I've used ls2 too.
                  Wind noise is slightly less in BLADE as compared to CL17.
                  Padding of blade is more comfortable.
                  CL17 is the only snell approved helmet under 10k thats the only reason I've bought it.
                  I use CL17 for fast sunday rides and MT BLADE for daily use.

                    Can anyone suggest me a lightweight helmet? Currently using a LS2. Is there anything available in market lighter than that. I believe the LS2 weight around 1.5kgs. Price range is max upto 6-7K.

                        You can try SMK Helmets they are comparatively cheaper ECE Certified and offer quite good bang for the buck. Plus they come with PINLOCK (an antifog insert) with is 100% fog proof.

                        The girl said, 'NO!'


                        And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.

                            Update on my helmet search @siddharthmsc

                            Sorry for late update, I ended up buying MT Mugello (size M) from ProBiker as that was best fit of the lot for me from LS2, SMK, THH and SOL.

                            Costed me 4250 INR. Dual certified DOT+ECE, no pinlock visor by default but can get fixed anytime in 1450 INR. I didn't fit it right away as I wanted to see the default behavior. I did a 300 KMs ride afterwards, it fogs plenty though, little more than my Steelbird Oscar.

                            Fits real snug, cheeks hurt a little after some time, I hope the padding gets shaped accordingly soon. My neck also started to hurt after total of 4 hours of riding so guess will have to adjust to the weight of this bugger.

                            There was another MT model with the name Stinger at 5000 INR which fit me exactly like Mugello, I could've chosen that but as per the shop guy, it didn't offer anything else over Mugello except a more 'aerodynamic' design.
                            So far so good.

                            Regards.

                              Wear the helmet on a wet surface it fits fast like how gloves break in
                              Also what's the sharp rating of mugello and striker ?
