Helmets

[a.jayamohan]

^ Marushin is way above standards(in quality and monetary dept. ) of Daijya..currently PlanetDSG is not stocking Daijya(s) anymore. But, if lucky its still available at some of stores(1 in mumbai and 1 in Delhi).

I will appreciate if you can give the email id of that shops and addresses.

Hmmmmm, nice nice, u guys sure that DAIJYA aren't available here?? i'd like to take a look at them,...

have'nt u seen a daijya in real? if you have'nt, then come over to my house

[Motorcyclist]

Well i had posted something a few days back. Hope someone replies..

Buddy, a tinted visor is not advisable especially if you ride at night. (unless your headlamp is like a searchlight)...if it gets scratched up, it is even worse.

take care and ride safe...

My mercury visor got a few scratches!!! im kinda depressed it's hardly been 2 weeks since i got mine so,...

I think its due to pebbles on highways!

bro how deep are your scratches ? if they are not very deep , maybe you can use to plastic polish to get rid of it ... i did this on my old helmet to get rid of scratches that occur due to dust and particles hitting the visor while riding ... but , I dunno if it will work with a tinted visor . mine was clear , so i'm not that sure ...

Can you please tell me the name of the plastic polish product&if possible price&a pic please? I would like to use it on my bike's visor.

LS2 helmets in Mumbai were being quoted at 2400-2600 range on Grant Road. When I first saw the brand I was not sure but after some research it looks good. 4800 looks like a direct conversion of euros. Which store in hyd is quoting these prices. i am here for a couple of days, I will go and check them

I was checking for LS2 online couple of days back, some of them are being sold at huge discounts of 70%. 22 Euros. man I wish we can get those deals here

By the way is it better to buy a helmet in Hyderabad or Mumbai or Pune /Bangalore. I am from Hyd and therefor Sankranti , living in Mumbai (searched grant road and abndra) and will be there in Pune/Bangalore next week. Which is the city to get best helemts with respect to fit, brands and price

The shop mentioned above was selling a matt black LS2 lid for Rs.3.8K. I tried it on&it felt awesome-super light, compact&comfy. Do you think the price is too high?

No idea about Pune, but Performance Racing Store sells them in Mumbai. I think the solid one costs Rs.5.5K-well justified, considering the international price is also about 110$.

Thanks @Sarvajit. That's correct it costs ~$110. I know, I will have a more choice @performance in Mumbai. Just was trying to figure out if I could get one in Pune itself and skip the Mumbai visit. The review for S-07 are quite good. If I go to Mumbai, I will have more choice like KBC and more.

Helmet Sizes

Hi All,

As suggested by a few members I am looking to buy a AGV-MPA / Gp-One helmet.

I have checked many shops in Mumbai for the helmets but donot seem to get my size. I require a M/S size (As my head size in a bit over 56 cms).

In all shops I am getting either a L or XL and hence the helmets are loose.

The shopkeepers are saying that these compaies only manufacture one size, which is not true as I have seen online and they manufacture from XXS to XXL. The shopkeepers are saying that for a snug fit they can change the inner lining and put t thicker one, which will not give adequate protection.

Can anyone let me know a shop in Mumbai where I could get S and M size helmets.

Regards,

HI shopkeeper is very right on his part because its not possible to alter shell only inserts padding can be altered, in india u can take good example of studds helmet they write size on the visors if u check two different size same helmet from outer it will be similar but they will be different from inside. because in manufacturing one model mold its too expensive because not only model same visor should also altered. & one polycarbonate visor model cost around 10lac to 12lac instead of investing so much in same model company develop different models in different size example studds bravo is for small head & studds premium is for bigger head only few success full model make mold size different for example in india only vega boolean helmets have two different molds no other mold have that only there is change in padding. but before purchasing helmet go for maximum snug fit helmets & dont share ur helmet for keeping proper fit longer period & its not hygienic
