Re: Helmets

well. i do have the clip but being the helmet is new the padding is tight and when attached to clip the padding is moved a bit and the helmet becomes more tight..i hope you have understood what i mean to say. hence the tape. will try the clip once thehelmet settles downin size a bit. till then will go with this setup .

Hey Amit, Great Lid and awesome idea to retrofit a Bluetooth in it but, just out of curiosity, why did you buy a helmet of 4000 and spent another 5000 for the Bluetooth kit when you could have got the SMK Bluetooth Helmet with Bluetooth for 8000?

Re: Helmets

would anyone know where in delhi (or NCR)can we get a good variety of helmets to choose from.. im looking for only imported brands like arai, agv,soumy or shoie etc.
the dealers i speak to always say if u give advance we can get it for u..but how can i book it without even having a look at the real thing

One more shop started on Mehrauli - Gurgaon road beside Arjangarh Metro station. Name of the shop is "Go Rev Up" and they keep all branded stuff in motorcycle riding accessories. Shop owner is Prathyush.

Address is - Go Rev Up, near Arjangarh Metro Station gate no. 2, Mehrauli Gurgaon Road, Opposite Metro Pillar 187E.

From Mehrauli of Gurgaon, it falls on the right side and can be seen easily from the red light.

Hey Guys,
I have just upgraded to MT Thunder 3.0. It is a wonderful Lid in Matte but, I was told by a rider friend that one can have a plastic film pasted on the outer shell to protect it from fading or from scratches. Is this suggestion credible?

Is it even possible to wrap a helmet completely in just 1 single piece without cutting??

That are the kinda doubts I have too and I am skeptical about it. One silly mistake can be dangerous when it comes to safety gears and harness.

Re: Helmets

Hi. I bought a LS2 FF302 hyperion from Paytm yesterday. The ece certification is stickered and not embossed. How to know if the helmet is original.
Quality wise it seems pretty good but I'm upgrading from a basic Steelbird so don't have anything to compare with.

It is always the sticker no engraved.

to ascertain a genuine ece helmet of LS2,check for a white label on the chin strap of the hemet,there will a numerical code on the white label ,the code should start with number 05

Re: Helmets

Any suggestions for a light weight (<1450gms incl communicator) adventure(the one with peak and visor) helmet??
Currently am using a Caberg V2X Carbon and Schuberth SR2. Both are super awesome and ultra safe helmets.
But wanna pickup an adventure helmet for long distance touring!

Yup.. the news is true. Pictures are making rounds showing heaps of the 'cap-helmets' piled on the roadside after seizing. I beg to differ about half faced helmet getting seized, as few of my friends said that their helmets were not seized. Generally they don't check everyone, just the ones who look like wearing hats.
