and how can u say "better stop using helmets"

I don't think index have washable padding

[RanjithMN]

Thats probably because the owner of AutoQueen, Cochin is a major distributor for south indian helmet shops

yep thts there ...but generally i guess its cheaper in Kerala.

Guys, you will have to bear some cheap stuff in this post. Please cooperate.

Finally purchased my 1st Helmet for 1100 INR, It's from some Indian company known as 'AIRBAG'. Posting some pictures:

I didnot had much money to buy an AGV. You are correct that such things doesnot provide required protection. But, it is better having something than having nothing.

Sorry guys, i think i have insulted the respective XBHP community and voided safety rules by purchasing that, But please try to understand i am going through some serious Financial problems.

Don't be apologetic or anything about the helmet or your financial problems. You have not insulted the community. Its good that you bought a helmet. I have seen lots of guys with xbhp stickers on their bikes and without a helmet on.
Though for 1.1k you could have got a decent studds helmet too.
Ride safe. More than the helmet, its your riding intelligence which will matter

You dont have to apologize,but like MIK said,for 1.1K you could have bought a better helmet...STUDDS was an option.
