Helmets

[vipin_s]

Guys, maybe it will seem to be a stupid question, but does the Vega Off the road helmet come without visor only? One of my friend is planning to buy one.

Optional visor is available for extra cost (not expensive), it cannot be lifted fully, check it before buying.

The Vega off road helmet with the visor is useless, get one with goggles.

And my father is stupid, says why do I need such costly helmets, why can't I do with one around 200-300 rupees, he says helmets are only to avoid being caught by the police. When I argue about the protection of such helmets he says why would I need to ride such a way to meet with an accident, ride carefully and you'll never need a helmet.

Dude, cool down.. Although your father acts stupid indeed, you shouldn't be humiliating him in public..

And, my dad was not a stupid then. We went to buy a helmet, saw a Vega Boolean (which I intended to buy), but Dad said they looked cheap, so went for an LS2.

Cool down yaar !! You can educate your dad instead of abusing him ?
As far as love for costlier helmets goes, I myself have seen my friend who had terrible accident on his Pulsar two months back @100 kph speed, the helmet bore huge cuts & scratches and he escaped with superficial injuries. After getting his bike repaired he bought the same helmet which is just Rs.650/- (Studds Chrome), he bought it b'cos it gives great view and is one of the lightest as well. So you can get safe helmets for less too.

Easy way to educate your dad? Tell him to bang his head into a wall(think of it don't ask him,lol) It hurts? Now if you run you can almost make your skull bleed? What would happen while driving at 30-40kmph(which btw is slow)? You obviously need a good helmet.

If you're talking about the European company, AFAIK they have a good reputation - your question is however too vague.

Which model are you comparing with the AGV - K series?

hey all, I'm trying to find the name of this particular helmet... can somebody help me out with it's name?

How are Sparx helmets? One of the helmet I tried out fits me perfectly, costs around 6k.

I have a SparX helmet. Fits well and has really good finish. Pretty silent when the eye brow vents are closed. Not too heavy also. DOT and ECE22.05 certified.

Check webbikeworld for reviews. SparX and KBC are from the same manufacturer.

Thats not the good way yaar. Don't use this kind of words for him He needs to get some awareness which you should have done instead of cursing him in public. And, "Horrer" described it nicely, as well, you can read "haxor's" signature and tell him the same I personally like that text
