    Thanks for the suggestion, this would be my second helmet for the relaxed rides my everyday helmet is a full face one.
    Trust me buddy, i know the merits and really well thanks to a accident i had in 2008

      • Guys, I need the MPA-AGV helmet. Do they make it still? Even if its a no, are there dealers who have the old ones on their shelfs?

        • I've been using a Sparx torino for about 5-6 months now and absolutely love it. Looks great, I've just the perfect amount of air so that I don't feel like suffocating nor doe I feel very airy inside the helmet.

          I was contemplating on getting a secondary lid for the occasional pillion. Almost went and got myself a Steelbird SB13, but they didn't have one in white so came back home and found this after a little searching : LINK

          I have a white bike so the silver helmet would be fine by me, and at 14.23$ + 6.95$ shipping, it is a flippin' awesome deal. I can get it to India via friends or cousins.

          The only thing that I'm apprehensive about is that there doesn't seem to be any website of cyber helmets. I'm on a couple of superbike forums as well and I didn't see anyone having a cyber helmet. Shall I go forward?

          The other option would be either to get an Indian made ISI mark helmet or the more costly : LinK But I've already got one sparx, and this will be more that 50$ which is 2.5 times the cost of the other imported helmet I'm considering.

          Any advice guys?
          A good long ride can clear your mind, restore your faith, and use up a lot of fuel.

          • Are the any LS2 Helmet model which has vents for air circulation ,either above the visor or on the sides of the helmet. During summers these kind of helmets would be really useful.

                      dont know about it in chennai...and there is no online store for it...though they are available back here in mumbai...
                      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 ! :)

                        I want the Rossi edition so badly. Is there any other alternative helmet? The official helmet will blow a bazooka through my wallet.

                            Is there an MPA AGV Rossi edition? I havent seen one so far. You still will get old stocks of MPA AGVs. Probably retailing for around 2k. Check with the Chennai xbhpians.

                            I would still prefer it over the lower priced range Cross but for a few hundred rupees more LS2s are available and if I could stretch my budget I would pick that instead.

                                Hmm, I was thinking of the same thing. Anyway, is there any other cheaper edition of the Rossi? If not, I just have to settle for an LS2.
