      Free shipping within U.S. I had ordered other stuff which totally valued over $500. I took advantage of one of my cousin's visit to India and asked him carry all of it with him. Got Xmas discounts on much of the stuff, which was the icing on the cake

          • 4500bucks for a BELL...cheap eh !!
            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 ! :)

                    No, it doesn't. I'm planning to change the visor to a black tinted one.

                    • Best Helmet for Monsoons!

                      Hello All,
                      I would like to know which is the best helmet around for use in monsoons.I am asking this cause I wear prescription glasses and this leads to a lot of problems while riding with a helmet in the rain especially at night.This is what happens- when there is moderate to heavy showers the helmet visor gets fogged if completely closed and if opened even partially the specs get wet later fogged so that it becomes almost impossible to see clearly.It becomes dangerous riding in the dark so much so that couple of times I have narrowly missed falling into roadside ditches.
                      Awaiting your valuable inputs on this query.

                        Bell makes some of the most amazing fitting helmets... it has a lot to prove... in fact Bell is now returning back to Bike helmet business after a long time... in the nineties it had sold the Bell name and all its rights for the motorcycle side of business to Bieffe and the name almost disappeared from the Bike world. Now, the original Bell company has bought back the rights and is now designing and making helmets again... their sizing is a little different... if you normally wear a 'M' size, then you will find that their 'S' size is proper fit... you need to be very sure of your size... so my advice is this... if you are not sure of your size and you need need to try your helmets then please go with a helmet that you can try physically on before buying... remember that a good fit is not just desirable but also absolutely essential for the helmet to do its job....

                          You get some kind of spray which you can use and it prevents to some extent the fogging up of the visor and also the rain water does not stick to the visor as it usually would.
                          I dont know its exact name but try looking around and maybe you can find it in some car or bike accessories place.

                          Also if the fogging up is due to your breath then you can get a guard like thing that is fitted on most helkmets like cross, ls2 etc which will direct your breath downward and away from the visor.
                          Also another cheaper alternative would be to tie a handkerchief on your face and nose.

                          Good luck.

                          • Any recommendations for a helmet in budget of around 7k and also where to buy it? I stay in Jayanagar, Bangalore. It shouldn't be flashy, just plain black will do, but it should be good as I am investing more than average on it.

                              • Hi Guys,

                                I have Cross Matt black helmet. Its serving me well an is with me since more thn 3 years now. although I got its replacement, but i still like my cross one. The only problem with it is now since with age the matt paint has come off..
                                I have got many articles on normal paint jobs on helmets but where can i ( if possible ) find matt finish paints...

                                Any pointers in delhi will be great.

                                Thanks in advance
