    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 ! :)

            • these are not the 'AGV' helmets we all are thinking of...but yes these are original and 'ISI' marked...have been in the market for quite long...marketed by 'MPA'...

                Yea.. thats what I was thinking.
                No one would have thought of an 'original' AGV at this price I hope.

                          i have been considering to buy an ls2 dragon for quite a while now .. just waitig for the green signal from dad

                          here are the pics of my mpa just for reference :
                          [ATTACH]34199[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]34200[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]34201[/ATTACH]

                          the reasons why i want dragon are :

                          1) size L of dragon fits me perfectly. Phobia and a few others are not comfy because i wear glasses .. I guess ppl manage but im not able to.

                          2) complete VFM .. I can get it for like 2.7k here in bangalore ..

                          3) looks nice .. It doesnt look all that great from the back but its got a traditional japanese dragon on the side which appeals to me ..

                          now im beginning to think of reasons why i dont want to get one ..

                          1) let me be honest .. It has become VERY common its only because the helmet is really good or it wont have become so popular but its too common..

                          2) i have a white and red mpa flash as of now .. the red and white dragon looks the best ( because i have a red 220 dtsi ) ... although the dragon looks nothing like my mpa , i want a different colour scheme ...

                          3) it has a dragon and not just random graphics .. Im bored of random patterns because of my existing mpa ..

                          4) the black and red dragon in matte finish looks second best according to me .. But my hands sweat like crazy .. genetic issue ... runs in the family so a matte finish will look terrible within one day of me handling it ( i just touched my friends matte black ls2 and it made him cry )

                          4) i kinda dont mind getting the black and red glossy dragon but then again , its not my favorite ..


                          So here is an absolutely confused but very particular chap ( note the confusion here as well ) who wants to go in for a good but affordable ( not more than 3k ) helmet ...
                          please help me out ..
                          Are there any other good helmets which i can get in that price range ?
                          I know about vega shadow but i dont like it much ..

                          Ill mostly go in for the black and red glossy dragon but just in case .. is there anything that fits the following criteria ??

                          1) comfy for use with spectacles/shades
                          2) not above Rs. 3k ( can stretch to max 3.5k )
                          3) removable and machine washable interiors
                          4) some colour scheme that will suit my red 220
                          5) available in bangalore

                          thanks and sorry for the long post
                          I posted this a few weeks back guys .. Some help here please ?
                          I am going to buy by next week and i want to zero in on one ...

                            you seem to be having a liking for almost every helmet but when you have to make a decision of buying it you tend to dislike it...i wonder if anyone would suggest anything to you ! lol..

                            by the way you could check out CROSS helmets too...they are in that price range back here in mumbai...dont have any idea about your place...

                                Theres a helmet from cross with price tag of <2k. Am interested in purchasing it. If even you are ready to get it then we can go together. Maybe we can get some discount on purchasing two helmets.


                                P.S:- Am planning to get it at the ending of this month.
                                NOT BEEN THERE NOT DONE THAT
