    I would suggest to get from ON THE ROCKS

    You can get cross helmets starting from 2500@ ON THE ROCKS and LS2 Starting from 2950 up to 3200 @ on the rocks...

    Contact Ritesh @ 9000509180

    You tell him i told you about this, he can suggest you better helmets

    Cheers!!!
    Im not sure about the helmet scene in Hyderabad but around the country LS2s are going for around Rs 2400. Details have been posted on this thread earlier.

        • Finally after a lot of yearning picked up my favourite LS2 BLADE in White. It cost me 3K. Picked it up from Helmet Paradise.

          This one's got dual visor.

                  plus 1 to that...back here in mumbai Glider's MC1 is for Rs.1200/- , Studds Motocross(without googles/glass) Rs.1595/- MRP and the Vega is almost the same that you have mentioned.
                  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 ! :)

                      Steelbird site says its 1159/- so i think price is ok.....steelbird nd studds r best indian brands....before buyin check for durability nd comfort ..and i think its modular helmet so check the chin flip-up mechanism is comfrotable..

                      • Would buying a helmet online be good idea??

                          Wouldn't suggest it - the fit of a helmet is the single most important thing in selection of a lid - definitely try before you buy. What's your budget?

                            I had a simple plain black wrangler helmet previously. I just moved to Chennai a week back, so I gave the old one to a friend. Any good place in Chennai to buy a helmet, reasonable prices (I won't mind shelling a little extra for a good piece and I noticed your location is Chennai ).
                            Budget is not that crucial anyway, since, I don't want anything flashy or glitzy. A simple one won't cost in the league of some of the helmets I saw on this thread. (Just an assumption)

                              No harm in buying online, assuming you know the size that would be the perfect fit for you (as suggested by Sunnyside).

                              I personally picked up my SparX helmet after ensuring I had tried out the helmet to zero in on the size. I ordered my helmet (& boots after about 4 months) from Motorcycle Parts, Motorcycle Accessories ? BikeBandit.com, & the buying experience was more than pleasant.

                              Some of the online stores you can look at are: www.bikebandit.com, www.motorcycle-superstore.com, www.revzilla.com, www.ridersdiscount.com, www.kneedraggers.com, www.sportbiketrackgear.com, www.newenough.com. All these are based out of USA.

                              Check for reviews of the various helmets at webbikeworld.com (highly recommended before zeroing on a helmet)

                              The pleasure is when your rear wheel slides, and you bring it back; and when the front wheel lifts, you take your time bringing it back.

                              • Got myself a vega corah . white one to go with my white apache .. It fits just right. Not too tight or too loose. I used to use my dad's helmet which kept slipping out of place when I ride so I had to keep pushing it into position constantly. This one feels just right. Now i can concentrate on the biking . Good buy for 1k.
