Helmets

Size? Asking price?

Its a size M, and I have PMed you the price.

@Neal: Do you keep that helmet always tied to the "helmet lock" when not in use (considering it is your helmet)? Because, if you do, then I seriously feel it won't really be good for the lid! Also, I personally find Daijya helmets way too heavy for use; even heavier than the GP One that I use!

Nah I carry it wth me all the time. I did that just for the pics, as I thought it would look cool.. yeah its a lil bit heavy, but I'am used to it by now.

Here's my good helmet. Its a Suomy Extreme Spec-1R.



Looks good with the bike although others say it looks gay :|



Helmet with the iridium visor and my ex gloves, Alpinestars MX2 or soemthing



Currently brought the helmet back to India, now looking to buy another good helmet.

Please suggest an open-face helmet for light city-commute...is vega eclipse better than boolean or ninja 3g?

[harshit.d]

Hi All, please suggest a helmet in the range of 3K (Max).

I want a full face with riser feature by which it can be made as a half face as well. Like the studds ninja, vega boolean, etc.

Finally bought my favorite vega after lots of dillema and discussions over here , from balaji helmets bangalore. got it for 3.1k coz i m not that good at bargaining. The deal was over in 10 mins as i wanted this specific one and hence didnt bargain much.

Amazing Lid Varun. Red looks gooood... Would've preferred a glossy finish to the matte though.. What the sticker type thing on the visor, is it a tear-off?? also for a dark visor how is its performance at night...

The glossy finish one had some changes in the graphics, so went for this , as it looked better.
Yeah, that sticker on the visor is a tear off..just to avoid scratches now...
I havent tried it at night yet. its actually not the black tinted visor, its the mirror finish one, the guys using these kinda visors told this one gives better vision at night, thats why went for it.

need your help

Guys!!
i need your help. Iam looking to pick up a helmet for my girl. I have no experience with the ladies helmet, hence iam posting it here to know a few specific things.

my requirements:
1) open face (since she will never wear a full face one ,no matter how much
i try to convince her. i only know how much emotional blackmail i had to
do to extract a yes from her for atleast an open face one) so its very
important that it has to be comfortable to wear.

2) it should be light weight with removable and washable inner lining

3) it should have vibrant colours (pink would do)

is there any helmet in the market which fullfills these requirements?
i once saw some steelbird-bieffe half faced helmets in italian flag colours in bike india mag but unfortunately dont know the model name or the features.

if you guys know something about it please enlighten me.and a few words about the expected price as well so that i dont get cheated big time. her birthday is coming and i want to gift her the helmet. need your help please...

for around 3.5k CROSS has modular types.and for 3k you can get normal full face from CROSS/AGV.

Saw the range of riding gears stocked at Orion Yamaha, opposite Forum mall.

The Imported AGV's cost 8.5k upwards. Tried MPA and the Indian AGV. Personally liked the MPA ones as the latter was heavier than the MPA.

Any feedback on the MPA helmets? The one i saw had removable inner padding and cost less than 3k. Cross was almost on the same lines of the Imported AGV's so they are out of reach.

This is available for 2.8k without bargain in chn. One more thing is, you cannot see any certification for this helmet. As per the shop keepers here in chennai, these helmets are imported from Thailand and then distributed here and hence there is no ISI/ECE/DOT/SNELL certification.

So i cancelled my plans of buying this lid and came back home empty handed.

i saw this in the vega's ad in some reputed magazines like auto india, etc...Also the built quality looked good and sturdy compared to other helmets in this range..
one of my friends have bought this for the price you ve mentioned in chennai, but here in tvm they are quoting 1k extra!!!
