Helmets

[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:

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.

Proud to be part of XbhP

There's a shop in karol bagh by the name Choppra Helmets he's got them, and for Cross I would suggest the first shop on the right side of the main road. Just tell him that you need a cross helmet..he will then take you upstairs where they've got a showroom kind of a setup

There is no proper solution to the fog problem.
1. Keep the visor slightly open from time to time.
2. Try not to exhale too much suddenly as that fogs up the visor.
3. Wear a balaclava which helps in filtering some part of the hot air you will be exhaling.

In my experience, my tinted visored helmet fared very poorly in extreme foggy conditions. I think clear lens is a better option.

If it gets foggy you let some air in so the visor remains clear. The AGV visors are good and you need to keep it very clean. All this would make it a little better for you to see when opposite lights flood your eyes. There is no actual 100% remedy to fight the glare.

To see if the visor is doing its job well or not, try to see whether there is any difference if you life it up.

BTW, you would need a Breath Deflector to better the situation. If you wear spectacles, a Balalclava can worsen the situation by fogging the spectacle glasses.

whats balalclava ?
and any solution to clean visor for better results ?
[can i use colin or somthing to clean the visor ?]

[HydBiker]

^^^
search for Balalclava in this thread. You'll find a lot of info & even photos.

U can use collin or even better car windsheild cleaner along with a soft tissue paper. If the tissue paper is not very soft like most hotels use, it will scratch the visor. Collin is still a bit abbrasive and effects the antiscratch coating on teh visor in the long run. Well, most of us are using the same anyway.

Guys i need your help and opinion on this :

My WLT helmet's tinted visor has got scratched badly, thanks to me because i turned careless for a month because of my exams and the poor thing was kept here n there by my mom

Planning to get a new visor, tinted for sure and planning to get a silver visor now instead of the rainbow one i had.

What are my options and how much would it cost to get a new visor.

@ Delhi xBhpian's
Would i get the spare visor at Chopra's Karol bagh??
