if your budget is below 1k fox/ktm are okay...Originally posted by pratheekkunder View PostGuys:i am going to buy knee pads today. Can anyone suggest me which one should i go for?
but i still would suggest and recommend AXO anyday,anyone,anywhere...
1.many use the Fox Raptor here but it doesnt have velcro straps...the hook straps may not hold on in the event of a fall...plus the pads slip down your knee if they are not secured tight...
2.Cramster also are good but the rivets provided not too strong...(a few touch downs at a corner at lavasa and the rivet of my left pad came off)..comfortable otherwise...
if at all you go for any external kneepads prefer the AXO or the Scoyco(not sure)...
the axo also have removable/washable inner padding...if at all the rivets come off(shouldn't! ask abhayshanu...they saved him at the last ride to kasara,igatpuri) they can be replaced by any other screw...
a xbhpian shouldnt pay more than Rs.1200(black) and Rs.1400(Red) for both elbow+knee at AH Helmets...Last edited by nin; 11-27-2010, 03:20 PM.A very good and safe biker not only because he can pop up either of the wheels,scrape his knees on a corner or go fast and make it look stylish but because he very well knows his limits and capabilities and has the patience to learn about others and ride safe ! :)

...you told me you got them for Rs.750 from AH...what did you have to do extra for the cheap deal ? come on...pratheek is a fellow xbhpian...so a brother...you could get that for him at the same price..

^^ so rohit what are you planning to buy finally ?
instead of a dual visor like the boolean...you could also opt for a good helmet with a dark visor and wear good plain glares...
EDIT: sorry i forgot you have glasses..Last edited by nin; 11-27-2010, 04:22 PM.A very good and safe biker not only because he can pop up either of the wheels,scrape his knees on a corner or go fast and make it look stylish but because he very well knows his limits and capabilities and has the patience to learn about others and ride safe ! :)

EDIT : Did you mean glares ?? ... Dude I got spectacles and not interested in lenses ..... I want Dual Visor type only ... Any suggestions ?
i guess boolean and motocross type vega are the only dual visor helmets(the inner one isnt a visor actually) with the ISI mark..you could have a look at RJAYS too...
did rossi forget his cap at AH HELMETS when he had been there ??Originally posted by RISHIS View PostCan you guys just ask about Rossi Cap over there, is it available..?
good job your doing rishi by returning it to him...mera 'HI' bolna usko !

If the nail polish remover does not have Acetone in it, then it will not dissolve Fevi quick. When buying, you must ask specifically for Acetone based ones. The bottle will have it mentioned on the back.Originally posted by nin View Postthe nail paint remover that i used didnt get off the fevi kwik
either the fevi kwik i used was of good quality or the nail paint remover of bad quality !
