Helmets

[saurabhjd]

Hey guys, I'm from mumbai and am looking to buy a new helmet. I have a budget of 2k and am looking for a good shop to buy helmets from. Any good brands or models around? I heard that the cost of LS2's had dropped a few months ago. Any tips guys? And what about the ISI mark being made compulsory? I have heard people with ECE or DOT certification being fined by police in mumbai for not having ISI certification. Thanks in advance.

well, i ride from thane to borivali and back. there are at least 2 naka bandi i have to go through every day. i wear a daijya usually and sometime LS2 and i haven't been stopped even once. i have been to south mumbai also, that too 4-5 times with these same helmets but nobody nowhere stopped me am i the lucky guy or its just that the ISI thing is over hyped

anyway, about your query, there is a shop called Sun Shine Auto in Thane. He seems to be selling authentic LS2. you can go to him. price range is around 2.5k, but i am not sure. it may be less. and the ones at his shop do have ISI mark.

It costed me approximately 9500 INR and i carried it myself,so no customs duty.I got it from this motorcycle gear shop in hongkong, so no web links but u can give it a try online.Look for K3 Sword Rossi edition.

thank you for the reply.
i think getting caught at customs is purely by luck/chance

Well you can call it luck! BUT: few hours after i posted my reply I got my Cortech FSX2 Jacket delivered at my door step

Mantra still remains : below 10k to avoid the lime light

After searching through many online stores and other places and also through friends i finally got myself the AGV K3 Sword Rossi edition helmet.Got it from hongkong for a fair deal.Its pretty comfy and the overall quality is very nice with an amazing graphics quality and paint.

Nice....How much is the weight?

Any chances of opening up in New Delhi soon ?

After the operations in the South are stabilized I guess, since the company is headquartered in the South. But you can get yourself a helmet couriered to you - just send in an enquiry.

Magesh,

Check out the SOL SF01 which is shown on the site SOL Helmet India . This version has an internal visor like you wanted and can be seen at Shree Padham on GP road, who is an authorised reseller.

The price of the helmet is available on the website, which is a little more than your budget, but sheer VFM for a true DOT spec product. You can also check with SriramEfunds and deva_hunk from Chennai XBhp for reviews on the product.
