  • Guys, here in Chennai, AGV's are avilable for 2.5k with bill and warranty. Though it sounds very tempting for me, I ve heard from my friends that those aren't true AGV's but are MPV's. I really don't understand. Should I go ahead and buy them?

    • yes those aren't the real "AGV" as MPA is the distributor for AGV in India ... But MPA-AGV's are a real good brand in their own right ...
      People ask me , why are you cribbing about the BHP ? to them I say "MORE is never ENOUGH" xbhp.com

        MPA has tied up with AGV to provide co branded MPA AGV helmets and these have been available in the market for quite a while. The quality is good and you get them in good designs as well. That said 2.5k is pretty steep as prices have come down to 2k if not less.

                      i am sorry i didn't understand by what meant by "direct lift off"
                      the price i found on the website of ls2 is 180 $ for piston head, but i am not sure.
                      btw- the price of helmet you have given on link is 9k

                        i mean its the completely same design.. ya 9 k . but you easily get 15%-20% off coupons of ebay . also in shops it would be lesser.
                        ive seen people buying ls2 piston head for 3.5-3.8. the shopkeeper has cheated afaik

                          The same pistonhead was bought by spiderweb(rohit) and was soon sold to my frnd here at tvm, He said it costed him abv 4k but 6k is bit too much. You could have bargained a little....anyhow, its one hell of a killer designer one and pls dont regret your decision coz of these comments...

                          • Hd been to A.H Helmets last Sunday....was plannin to visit the shop since quite some time. Needed to buy a helmet for daily use. One thing I should mention out here is the shop is well stocked & the owner, Mr Hemant was really helpful & patient. I normally require a large sized helmet n could hardly get into most of the lids he showed within my budget . But still he was kind enuf to let me try out every possible option. Finally, I chose an MPA-AGV in solid black. He changed the padding so that it could fit ma head. He quoted around Rs. 2100 for the lid but once I mentioned my xBhp affiliation, he brought down the price to Rs. 1850 . Didn't have the heart to bargain further so I agreed upon the price...The fit n finish of the helmet are quite gud n its not too heavy as well. Weighs as much as my Vega Shadow.

                            P.S.- Hemant Bhai gave me a tip that in case any of us are intrestd in buying Knee guards, he is going to hold a SALE in the third week of Dec . Plus he is gonna get some new stock as well...

                            Some pics of my lids...

                                Hmm… even I think I could have bargained L, but like you said the design sure is a killer. And the helmet feels good. Anyways I will stick to it now. Here are some pics that I took from the net . Thought it would be good to share J
