          • @soumen.sam: Great DIY, good work there. Try to make it waterproof and you have one amazing bluetooth helmet there. Maybe you can even write a guide.

                About the Boolean, is it possible to wear glasses and then wear the helmet on top of it? I'm asking cuz in a regular full face helmet I have to take off my glasses wear the helmet, then wear my glasses, this quite annoying.



                Also, so other members suggested a LS2, is this what they were talking about or are there other, better LS2s?

When I searched in google I got multiple results so I posted the link and asked whether that was the LS2 he was talking about???

But its Fixed type, not a Modular Helmet like Boolean. And it cost around 4k to 5k Rs. Where Boolean cost around 1700Rs. I just said LS2, 3, 4 any way.

                        LS2 is one of the most preferred premium segment helmet in India/XBP, but so far I couldn’t understand why people creazy about it. Even with its MRP if you add a little more money people can get most awesome international Helmets. Any way its people’s choice.
                        LS2 helmets are priced around 3k-4k, that is why they are preferred.

                          LS2's aren't models of VEGA buddy !
                          LS2 is a company itself which produces models like Dragon , Phobia , Cartoon , Diamond and many more !
                          LS 2 helmets are the imported versions which are produced and manufactured in China and are exported and sold throughout Europe therefore they are ECE certified.

                          Because its the best in this segment with some mindblowing graphics/designs.
                          some of their design's are even better than higher segment helmets.
                          the fit and finish is also great.

                            Offroad helmets have one big issue, go above 60km/hr and you will get lift on your helmet.

                            other than the usual ISI/ standard helmet stuff, u need to make sure the helmet fits you head correctly. Thats why i dont believe in ordering stuff online.

                            There was a good video about choosing the helmet size, cant find it now.
                            once you wear the helmet, hold it with your hands and try to move your head. If it moves your skin, then its the right size. If your head moves or you can put your fingers in the side of the helmet they are big for you.

                            Always go with the lowest size that fits you. Also remember that the padding will shrink a bit with use.

                              @ lessgravity, thanks for the advise I'll be sure to check the helmets in this way before buying one .
