        • My new helmet.

          @All - I have not used any good helmet so far, except for a few models from VEGA. At times tried wearing AGV and LS2. which belong to my friends. Everyone does know what VEGA would offer for the price its valued for.

          A week before i purchased a helmet. Brand name: SOL. Model: SF-01 Color: "ACME Silver". I have not placed any pictures.

          I used it for a week now. Here are my observations:

          Fit and Finish:

          Its sung fit.
          The product build quality is good. The visor upward/downward movement is at ease.
          Chin pads offer good comfort feel. They are removable and washable.

          Visor:

          The plain visor, has good optical visibility than any other models, which i have seen.
          The inner tinted visor offers good visibility too. One does not require to carry coolers. The knob, which brings the tinted visor back and front is placed comfortably and work fine at ease.
          Visor removal and fixing is easy.

          Graphic design:

          ACME silver it a plain model. Its simple.
          But i had chance to view other designs, which are really good.
          Likes by priority.
          a) Odyssey White Blue (Model - SL-68s) - in my next wish list.
          b) Unicorn-II Yellow Silver (Model - SL-68s) - This would attract everyone at first sight.

          Air circulation:

          SOL really offers, good air ventilation.

          Certification:

          SOL is DOT certified.

          Source it from: SOL Helmet India

          Deva.

          • to change or not

            hey guyz
            i have AARON HYBRID helmet. i bought it in a rush with my dad.
            so i want to know if its good or not. I travel normally in city.

            if yes then what is the best helmet under 2000 INR for city riding.
            i wear spectacles and prefer full face helmets.
            and out of vega and studd , whose motocross helmet is better

              you could directly order it from the riders discount,as the helmet is under 10k there wont be any problems with the customs so it shouldnt be a problem in getting that helmet!!

              btw any one here using scorpion-exo700 helmets???
              i am planning to get a helmet under 10k,would like hear the suggestions

              • My New Helmet

                Shoei RF-1100 Enigma Helmet TC-4

                Sale Price : $496.99

                One of my relative carried this for me from US, so no postage charges.

                My initial feedback, the helmet fits perfectly, there is considerable noise reduction. I have a clear visor on this helmet and tried this out in the day time. I have been using Marushin for 1+years now, I see a huge difference in the comfort level on the fit & feel. This helmet has a D-Ring strap and I have to still yet to get used to this feature which is different from the one I am using with Marushin. I have yet to try this out on long drives and at night. But at this moment it is Thumbs Up from my side!!

                The helmet came with a cover, 2 Shoei stickers, chin curtain & Breath Guard, User manual ...

                More info on this helmet ...

                  As our Hyd Rossi puts it, stay away from Scorpion as they dont have anyone in India to attend to if there is any problem. Best bets are Sparx / Daijya and Nuvo...

                        IMO Aaron is not a good brand.
                        Studds Rhyno is a very good helmet under 2k, costs Rs. 1200. Total VFM. I'm using it & I'm satisfied with its quality.
                        Its the fusion of a two wheeled machine & a human being which creates a true biker.

                          Its the wind noise, generally its from the chin side. Get used to it

                                hey as the link said, i have actually started using the ear plugs about 7-8 back. they are awesome. no wind noise at all. but yes, you can hear other vehicles horns. it will not make you deaf, and thats a plus. cost just 30/-. you can have them at any good sports gear shop. those meant for industrial workers or sportsmen who are exposed to loud noise. i am kind of superliking it.
