Helmets

[RanjithMN]

Main thing between this vega and cross is the weight factor, it helps a lot during long tours. Then the shell design, i liked this one than cross which is mostly plain(not the graphics). The visors are easier to get for vega and are also priced sanely at 400 bucks. I tried all when i went to buy and found the fitting perfect with vega.

i have never found CROSS heavy...if the VEGA is lighter,thts sweet!and i want to try it out!
btw there is a HUGE bulk of CROSS visors@450rs and also the visor mounting panel in AQ !

@ cochin xbhpians - if any of you are going to AQ could you find out if they have visors for GP One helmets in stock? I need to get a visor for the helmet I use in cochin & the last time I went there they said it would come in some time

I need a good helmet in and around 2k Can anyone suggest one? and also where i can get it from hyderabad.

[threat2myself1]

I didnt mean that AQ doesnt have adequate stock....They didnt have the stock which i ve shortlisted....AGV lisd are quite expensive which are way out of my budget. lijok bought it from AQ for 6k whereas my budget is only 3k. Also, MPA AGV and CROSS and LS2 and even vega booligan weighed much more than this vega..

SID, There is no good place to buy any other stuffs than helmet in trivandrum. Even yesterday, jayamohan bro drove to AQ to buy his cramsters. helmets are avilable at amba auto, but are much oevrpriced.Ghost riders also sell them but they take stock from AQ only.


dude, dont compare booligan with this, the make quality is far far better. I have used booligan extensively . My friend's booligan's front flipping part's spring broke off, then the inner glass came out, the padding just went off without doing anything and i had to buy another set!!!...

No doubt, AQ is the largest dealer over here and hence selling at the most competitive rates. comparison..i ve made in the previous quote

its lighter than boolean??
and cross weight is well distributed..i din feel a thing in my last ride to munnar!!
ranjiths cross parts are available in AQ. not mine though!

Neil, I've done a jugad as per Santa's suggestion. Got AGV's clips and visor on my GPOne. It leaves about .5 cm gap at the lip and doesn't close completely. You can possibly chop off some lining there but I didn't do it. That's no issue as he visor is superb now and the noise levels similar to what the shitty GPOne visor has. May be you wanna try it.

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!!!

I have just sent a mail to Vega clarify the doubts i have. Lets get the reply from Vega India itself.I really love to understand why there is no Safety or Quality certification for those helmets.

sorry but did i offend you? I am a big fan of Rossi and world over his fans use the no 46 as a sign of respect, admiration and love for him and i guess iam no different.



thanks Bro !!yeah i will do an extensive search and hope to find some good stuff.

no dude ,,even i have done the same thing ,only mine is on a full black helmet ,which i stickered to look just like the rossi range agv stealth series which costs more then 30k .
i even put the MONSTER(rossi sponsers) logos in bright green

Aww okay! have no plan to visit Bangalore any time soon..got any idea where to buy new Vega in kerala? (cochin or tvm) ?


Also hows LS2? heard its pretty good...guys any inputs about LS2?

[RanjithMN]

I have seen a lot of Vega's Boolean and MX helmets in Cochin but not the kind Varun has.
LS2 Helmets are very good."Spares" in Cochin stocks few.

The LS2 is pretty good. Gauravbalu has one. He is quite happy with it. His helmet has a rather nice design. Search through this forum to find his posts on his lid
