Helmets

Hey Rahul

did you send the knee guards

Srikanth

Hey buddy. Yesterday I was in the process of inquiring about shipping charges from logistic companies like DTDC, Blue Dart etc. Still haven't heard from them. Today being a Sunday, I'll again contact them tomorrow. Trying to get the best price possible. Meanwhile if you know of a good, reliable and cheaper shipper, lemme know . Will keep you updated.

congrats bro... wanted to go for the same but couldnt get my size... my next buy will be sparx turbine... wooohahahahaha.....
saving for one

Thanks . I don't see the Turbine model at PRS website. Are you planning to order it from the US? I like the RJays Hoochie Maama at that price. Love the graphics on that one . If you're ordering it, also consider AGV or HJC.

One thing I learnt about Daijya from the guy I bought it from is that the difference between LS2 and Daijya is that in LS2 the shell size is the same and the inner padding determines the sizing whereas in Daijya the shell size itself changes according to the size you want. I don't know how true this is, but after trying on this helmet, I realized the mistake I made with my LS2 and had in turn bought one size big. I was ignorant and a complete noob at the time and due to a business hungry salesman located in a famous biker shop in Oshiwada, I was chipkaod with it. Vowed never to buy stuff from there again. Sizing is bloody important when it comes to helmets!

Try before Buy is good thinking as few of us dont realise what size can actually fit us until and unless we try the product.

As far as your 2 options you are considering, Sparx is the entry level helmet of KBC Helmets company. It was introduced to be made the top end helmet of the low end market. Sparx is really good in terms of ventilation and you would also get an extra viser from PRS free.

KBC on the other hand is better in noise reduction and I love the Turbine model. Since I have got the chance to use both I would say go for KBC.

How much did it cost you?? I picked up the same model for 5000 rupees.

Hi man, Paid INR 3200/- in Mumbai for it, got a LS2 branded string drawn bag (nothing too great in my opinion but comes handy when u have to put the helmet in a bag) with it as well

Bought my LS2 Big One for 3.7k in Hyderabad this weekend...he quoted 4.5 k initially. This proves helmets in Hyderabad are priced way above average price
