    Could anyone suggest me a better helmet out of LS2 and Vega. The salesman said the Vega is imported from Brazil and the LS2 is imported from Korea.
    I am looking the helmet for my Blue R15.
    The available LS2 models are in matte finish and that too not in blue shades.
    Vega looks pretty good, but it doesn't seems to be imported from Brazil. The Graphics can be matched with R15 blue.
    Final price offered for LS2: Rs.3500/-
    Final price offered for Vega: Rs.3500/-

    Please suggest me your opinions, out of LS2 and Vega, which is stylish and safer.

    Go for the vega . My bro has exactly the same one what you have posted just that its in red and black combo. It looks goods and its comfortable. he is been using it since a year and it still in good shape .

    LS2 Also looks good. but cant comment on its quality , have never seen it .
    Converting Halogen / HID headlamp setups to FULL LED.

    Please fill in this survey so we can help you move to FULL LED Headlamps

      Navnish, how is the visor fastening mechanism....vega seem to have a screw type one but most of the one i have seen have sort of latch mechanism which can be accessed only opening the visor (hope my words are not confusing )

        the vega visor is like the GPR or cross helmets . Its not screws type. its just got a slot in which it needs to be clipped on

            • @ Coffin On Wheels, varun_r15 and navnish. Thanks for your opinions.

              Even I felt the same. Vega is just attractive. As I am commuting my R15, vega's blue eye seems to be an eye catcher on the road.

                MAN!!!! go a couple of pages back and u can see my post regarding the same doubt, even the same pics of the helmets!! even the guy at the shop quoted me the same price and was not willing to go down further. A fellow xbhpian from trivandrum bought the same as u have posted for 3500 from here. I thought ,in coimbatore , auto products and accesories will be cheaper!!same story there too!!:O.. I was so much carried away by that vega as it was very light wieght compared to any other and also perfectly fitting. The design is also fantabulous. Some chennai xbhpian told these were available for around 2.5k there . Im planning to take it from chennai through my friend who ll be mostly coming next month. Also vega's visor will be available easily and cheaper than the rest.

                    that's a great one

                    obvious question.what's cost and from where u get it.
                    Keep your bike in good repair: motorcycle boots are not comfortable for walking.

                            Vega will be the best deal if R15 is the bike..

                              Super cool man.

                              I see you bought a tinted visor too. I'm sure the visor itself costs more than my helmet ~!

                              Ride safe.

                              • Got the GP-One but the quality is pathetic compared to the GP-One i had,

                                don't know what to with this lid and it is a bit large too(which a balaclava can cure but we are approaching summers)
