Re: Helmets

Check the AXR helmets series. Starting from 3150/- as far as i remember

Not really a fan of Axors, are there any other alternatives in that Segment? How about THH or SMK?

SMK starts at 4350/- If you can stretch the budget, then I'll say just blindly opt for the SMK as long as u r not a fan of double DRing retention system. THH also has its GP series helmet at that price point, but I'll rather suggest SMK because it is a VFM product. Else below 4k, Studds Shifter is a very good proposition.
I've used both SMK Twister and Studds Shifter and thus, can say both are very good at their respective price points

Re: Helmets

Can you provide its link on amazon or flipkart. Actually I was looking for this one
https://www.amazon.in/gp/aw/d/B00OJZ...TF8&th=1&psc=1 as it has dual visors. Thanks

Amazon Link:

Flipkart Link:

EDIT: IMHO, Studds Shifter is much better than Vega and Steelbird helmets. Comes with dual visor as well.

If you search in this thread, many times it’s mentioned to avoid motocross helmets.

Ohh.....why?

In case of fall full face helmet would protect your head better than motocross helmets, don’t go just for looks, look for better safety standards.

But motocross are also full face. Don't they?

Quoting one of the post here:

If you see the picture in motocross the impacts are on mostly gravel or loose soil and low speed impacts. But in tarmac it's not the same. And more over in the pic it's good quality helmet and still this injury. Don't think any one would want such road rash on heor face like this and with the cheap knockoff stuff under brand name vega will give not even this protection.

Does vega has any certification apart from ISI? I guess no (other members can correct me if i am wrong)

Re: Helmets

So the one from Studds is good. Please give me 2-3 option from Studds which you think are good for a bike like dominar. Thanks

Studds shifter but only if it fits snugly on ur head and doesn't move easily. As Dominar is a fast bike and if the helmet is not snug it would move at triple digit speed and give u neck pain. For this same reason I stopped using my Studds rhyno on highway rides and now using SMK twister.

Studds Rhyno(using personally), shifter and scorpion are good helmets but mostly available in 580mm or 600mm though the site shows 570mm but it is hard to find.

My head size is 560mm and my 580mm is fairly snug on my khopda but it satrts shaking at high speed so i am only using it inside the city. And fro this reason only i bought smk twister in s size which ia 550mm. Smk is snug and doesn't moves at high speeds but does gets noisy at high speed.

Re: Helmets

Hey guys just got my new studds scorpion helmet from Amazon....
It's L size helmet... As from the pics you can see that it's got ISI rating...
But shockingly it's got DOT (FMVSS no. 218 certified) certification.... I don't know about it's authenticity... Can someone enlighten me...
Otherwise my SMK twister had got only ECE rating...
