Helmets

[umeshkumawatsa]

Guys help me decide which is the best helmet among these.
Vega boolean-1.6k
Index-2k(looks awesome but no removable padding also, tinted visor)
studds ninja 3g-1.3k (but only black colour and no designs also)

I initially wanted to buy boolean, but the shopkeeper guy says its not a good helmet, it might break even if it drops from your hand etc etc.

Any other helmets available within 2k range ??
I want one which has a good design, and not too heavy.
movable chin guard, inner visor and removable paddings are secondary but preferred.

p.s. please reply fast, i want to buy it tomorrow itself

Well in my opinion don't use flip up helmets as they can open in a crash .

Well in 2k range u can get cross or gp one.

thanks for the info guys. while browsing through this thread i came across a mpa flash.
i'll check if its available with tinted visor. if its available i may buy that, the design looks exactly same as agv too and it was 1.2k

Which shop told u like this? he must be not a dealer for vega thats why he must be telling like this. this helmet is approved by DOT standards.any time i also suggest to go for fix helmet but flip ups r convenient for city ride

well 99% it will not open in case of accident!
its not like studds which uses plastic clamp's, it uses meatl clamps which will not break in case of accident which we hve seen in studds ninja.
and also it is not spring assisted so in case it opens it will not just go 2 its top position!
i m using one which i purchased in jan and i m happy with the product,
i wear specs so modular helmet is what which is best for me1
DON'T WORRY ENJOY UR PURCHASE!

finally got a helmet uploading the pics

Actually, there is AH helmets a little ahead from aa. Take the right after AA helmets and the left at the next signals. you will find it on the left side. good place and helpful guys.

Also there is the performance racing store which mainly deals with joe rockets and AGV helmets. some great lids here. a little pricey , but you pay for the quality. have just booked the joe rocket stain series blue helmet from here.

thx bro... got a good lid from AA helmet and the guy was really helpfull....

In major crash possibilities may be there but if u check it is having brass lock on its jaw which make it safe compare to others

I'm not sure of the name, it was at JC road and siddhaiah road intersection.(bangalore)

What are the chances of running into a fake vega boolean ??
Because the side panels guarding the flip up feature looked a little flimsy in the helmet he showed me. he even tapped it and he was like "cant you make out by the sound that the quality is bad"
the rest of the helmet looked pretty strong though.

hmmm... surprising they say that , unless ofcourse you initially asked for a helmet higher up the price range , ... then yes , he may have said that , but otherwise , the boolean isn't bad at all , my bro's got onefor around 1.3k from balaji helmets bangalore and it's been pretty good so far , once wen the clamp broke , balaji replaced it for free as it was under warranty .

Thanks nipun..
and yes i too wear specs..

PS- which color did you owned..??

i own a Matt black.
i didn't liked the shiny black and the decals version(white and blue)
so i got Matt black which matches my bike color too.
and also the visor and tinted visor are optically corrected to zero power so even if i have 3 transparent surfaces in front of my eyes(main visor+tinted one+ specs) i don't get any distorted images!
