First see if its fits you properly. Since you own a ZMR ( Fast Bike Category ) you need a full face helmet instead of Off road helmet.....so you need to select the one which can give a good fit and allow movement of your neck (You should be able to move your head and neck freely when wearing a helmet)
Once you have finalized the design and make you might want to test ride the helmet....yeah you can do that if you are purchasing it from a good dealer....see how it feels, are you able to handle the weight, how good is the visibility, do you need tinted visor or transparent one, can you move your neck and see a vehicle standing behind you....

These are small tasks which matter a lot when purchasing a new helmet....they also help in long run as you need to use it for atleast a year or so!!!

Buy a good brand, looks do matter but protection comes first!!

Its a good helmet and will suit your bike,but the stock half visor is bad,it looks blur when we look through it and images are not clear.I had bought one for my friend.

Thnx Eshan that was very useful information . One thing that i noticed that i feel much comfortable in motocross type helmets rather than fully packed ones .

Under 3k you can get LS2s and Cross....however, i read earlier that Cross is getting obsolete..

[pravu]

Whats the size you are looking for?

yes, thats HJC only, am looking for XL size. Actually I have 2 helmets from different brands. One is from AGIVA(Thai made), L size and other from LS2, dragon graphics( XL size). So, I am buried under the impression that sizes do vary in accordance with brands. I knew this rule for garments but for lids, it is a news for me

[sooraj_vs]

under 3k you can get ls2s and cross....however, i read earlier that cross is getting obsolete..

yep. For < 3k, ls2 is the best bet now. Or if you have 3.5k there is the better range from cross.
