    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.
    Thanks n_aditya, I will go for SparX

      Which model are you comparing with the AGV - K series?
      Sorry abt tht.I dont remember the particular model name but it was priced along the K4 Series.I wont be able to Test Ride with the helmets,so would like to know which one is less noisy and more comfortable for touring.

      Thank you

        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.
        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

        • Hey friends,

          Do you know some decent helmets within the range of 3000-4000 INR. All helmets within this range are too bulky and heavy as the lighter ones are like too plastic feeling ones. I had the cross 910 series and weighed too much thought it saved me from crash and did its duty at its best, currently the LS2 bought by pro biker also weighs heavy and restricts free movements as its like you always have a feel that something heavy is mounted.

          Was guessing are there lighter helmets in this cost category and provide good amount of protection to the rider without compromising in quality.

                I doubt there are fake LS2's.AFAIK many ppl misunderstood the LS2's that were reduced to 2500RS to be fake.

                Anyway...Warranty? what kind of warranty?

                  warranty covers all the manufacturing defects excluding paint issues and visor scratches...

                          Shrinath, could you give us some insights? Have you heard of any frequently quoted shops in this thread that are selling duplicate helmets? Would you like to share your source of information? I think this would be a big help to all of us here.

                              I brought my LS2 pistonhead from there only. No issues till date. The shopkeeper is very polite & has also given me a warranty for 2 years.
