Helmets

[malliah]

@malliah--On-line or shop purchase?

i have seen a few lids by shark ,gmax that have dual visor and look good quality .but they are not easily available in india .

studds also has a dual visor helmet thats around 3600 .studds scorpion iirc.

@sheelpriye: Fine with both. Prefer buying at a store as can check the fit. But I have tried all the popular brands and the M size seems to fit me just fine.
@Puneet: have seen the Shark ones, they seem to be good. I would prefer a modular one at this time cos of the convinience they offer while touring.

Anurag is wearing a cool Shoei modular, it is a plain one too. The cost should be somewhere between 15-18K(I guess)
DSG stocks Shoei's too.

Would advise you to pay a visit to Bombay/Pune and check out PRS(Arai/Joe ROcket/HJC/KBC/SparX)

DSG(Shoei/Marushin/AGV/Suomy/Nolan/Daijya)

Bachoo(agv/R Jays)

I too went over to Bombay(PRS) to pick my stuff.

Cross helmets discussion

all cross helmet users please share your experience and discuss about price and safety standard of these helmets.

Cross is simply put worth the every penny spent on it.

Comfort fit, no air wobbling with that, good air flow due to the vents, and safety wise just too good!!
I spent 3.7k for that and don't regret at all for that. The visor is also good. You can ride at night even with the visor down. It won't affect the visibility much.

My New Cross Helmet

all cross helmet users please share your experience and discuss about price and safety standard of these helmets.

This is my new Cross Helmet (Is it called the SHADOW ??)



Bought: Yesterday
Where: Pioneer Helmets, Chennai
Price: Quoted 3500, bought for 2950/- (is the pricing too much?)

Review: I'm loving it
It doesnt have the D'ring thingy. but the feel of the lining and the comfort is wonderful, the air-vents work like a charm and make this whistling sound when I turn my head left or right. It weighs 1450+- 50-gms.
Its slightly heavier than my previous Vega Offroader Motocross Helmet, but lighter than the LS2 by some 100+-150gms.

I too went over to Bombay(PRS) to pick my stuff.

My current shortlist is a Scorpion EXO 900. Has got some good reviews and I currently use a Scorpion EXO 1000 currently.

I have had no complaints and the air fit system is superb. Wanted to try out another brand but cant seem to find any modular with dual visor.
