    Thanks I will look at it. From where can I purchase this?

        Looking for recommendations between Bell Qualifier or MT Revenge.. (₹9000 Range).
        Have tried MT Revenge twice for a short ride and there was very little to complain wrt noise till around speed of 90.It felt rock solid.

            Hello All,

            Was looking for a helmet in the budget of around 6k. Please suggest some good ones
            Also, how is MT thunder 3SV? I was considering that but heard it has a lot of wind noise ?
            Edit: Would be used for City and Touring (70-30%) and I also wear spectacles.

            Thanks,
            Varun

                Get Scorpion EXO390 if you have such budget. MT isn't worth it there.

                Little wind noise is present in most helmets. Thunder 3SV and SMK force are good options there.

                I am using Shiro SH890 and a lot of friends are using the 881 and 821. Chin support is good, but there is no internal visor, it comes with free Pinlock30 antifog sheet on sh881 and sh890. They are lightweight helmets but best suited to city duties.
                Goodluck.

                  thank you, what would you suggest for a long term use, like i ll be using it as long as the visor available or until the cushions torn a part. i am using a normal studds helmet now(rs2500) ,generally ride at 80km (occasional city and short tours) but i would like to extend it to 120 km with a good helmet. In that case for a budget of up to 6k which is the better choice? safety and reliability are first and second priority.

                  I use internal Visor occasionally, other wise i would have jumped to shiro, but if i can wear glass inside then it may be a good choice.
                  scorpion is new to me, never heard before, in my gang every one use smk, i dont like much, but most of them are 2 to 3 years old still intact.
                  i was thinking about MT, but not sure about after service . so what would you suggest.

                  Your valuable suggestions are welcome, i don't have much experience with helmets

                  thank you

                    get a SMK, they are long term with "the best" spares availability.

                          Is there a difference between MT Thunder 3 and MT mugello helmets apart from the internal visor?
                          Been looking for a helmet without the internal visor. Please do suggest some.
                          Also , any reason why MT Mugello helmet is not listed in their official website?

                                Guys, I bought a Thh T-76 helmet here in Kochi. After 2 dwys, the bottom beading came o out and paint peeling off. Really disappointed. Helmet dealer applied fevikwik and gave me back. I don't know, what to do. Paint peeling off is the distressing part. Click image for larger version
