No vega blue eye is not copy of v vega. this helmet is actually ECE quality but it take some time to get certified before that vega launch this model in market u will find same model with E.C.E certified after some months, this helmet is too light weight v vega cant manufacture such light weight helmets if u check from back side u can see vega off road n this model looks same even the vents r same.its there own R&D the model vega have copied is only boolean that is copy of caberg helmet rest all model r there own design.

I don't think so, this blue does look exactly similar to one model in v vega helmets.
I have even bigger doubts about credibility of this helmet. How can a renowned brand like vega release a helmet even before a helmet is certified. It could well be manufactured to meet the ece standards, but does that mean it can be released without a legitimate body certifying it ?

And lastly, why can't v vega manufacture light weight helmets ?

Tell one good company name which manufacture helmets below 8000/- outside china or thai? china is a country where u get best products of world n worst product of world even brands like KBC, KTM, Alpinstar etc r made in china.

Agreed, in addition to it, even scorpion, and other top most elite class helmets are made in China:-) now how kool is that. only we indians are ripped off for these helmets. Most of the imported helmets sold here are from China.Only the R&D and testing facility sits in the respective country.

just check the picks properly of v vega n this both r totally different. many companies like wrangler trim model was introduce without isi mark after 2 years they got certification steelbird cranium model same issue was there cranium helmet got isi mark after 4 years. the procedure for getting standards to model is very long if company wan to launch model then its nothing wrong. in this company feel difficult to sale the product without standards. a brand AGV first was coming without standard now they got certified when the merge with MPA. if company have confidence on there product then they launch before it is certified and one they get approved the put standards on it

Ya in this case we can say r goverment policies r very bad. in India taxation is so high due to it cost of product goes high
VAT-12.5%
C.S.T-4%
Octroi-4.25%
Excise depends upon turn over
company have to give many things to workers as per labor union act. working efficiency of us is very less compare to them.daily expense like petrol light r so high that we wont able to manufacture good helmets in economical rats.

This is for all Xbhp members. always try to purchase product where u stay at lest in same city because in that case u get better service because only purchasing is not thing after that u need service also then there will be always issue for it eg. u purchase helmet & after some days u find any genuine manufacturing defect then again u have to ship that in other state in imported helmet visor r main issue because every imported helmets visor r not available easily.i know there is price fluctuation from city to city that is only due to taxation problem of different state. u use ur all gear roundly for 3 to 4 years in that case u always find difficult to get it serve locally. i have seen many members cross check rates of helmets from different states instead u should cross check whiten the city.then i have to say there is 5rs different in petrol price in Delhi n Maharashtra u can take ideas of rates quality feedback from r friends but try to bargain with local dealer as much u can but go for the purchase near to u.

I am sorry if i am any where wrong or if i hurt ed some one i really apologies for it, this was the thing always coming in my mind when i was reading all forums on xbhp.Plz be free to correct me if i am somewhere wrong.

guys where can get agv helmets in hyderabad??

[tanay]

Speaking of helmets, feast your eyes on this one.

I don't own it, in fact, had I got that kind of $$, I would have a 250R or perhaps an old litre.

For the brave-hearted, here's the link:
ARAI RX-7 RC Racing Carbon (Size: XS.S.M.L.XL) : eBay Motors (item 260556507121 end time Apr-20-10 22:52:12 PDT)
