          Helios is better in quality than tornado...it has knox armour..see for it in real and you can figure it out.
          I am using Helios here in Mumbai heat and it doesn't sweat that much..

          Gloves you cant many options. I feel SPG gloves feel better.

            Ordered the following items on Snapdeal. Yea I know they are not the best. But this is just a stop gap arrangement and definitely better than no gear at all. Did not want to spend too much as I am saving to pick up some stuff abroad as and when good deals show up.

                I think I have given my reason for selecting this stuff. Hope you are not planning to say I got duped by buying a jacket that's cheaper than the others.

                    I have checked out the jacket and it's quite ok. I could very well go and buy the usual recommended stuff from DSG, Cramster, Rynox etc. But then as I said I will be picking up stuff from abroad. What happens to this stuff then. Considering what I have paid, I won't mind giving it away free to someone who needs it but cannot afford. Also it will be a while till I pick up the good stuff as I'll be hunting out for deals and picking up stuff as and when available. Till then I have this to use.

                      Guys which is the best all weather jacket in india under 7500 and it should have couple of these features.

                      1 It should have CE protectors at back , elbow and Shoulder.
                      2 It should have at least 1 waterproof pocket
                      3 YKK zippers
                      4 thermal and rain liner .
                      5 good quality ( most important )
                      I don't ride a bike to add days to my life .

                        Whole lot of mesh jackets with liners would fall there I guess.

                        I would say the advbreed from tbg would be my choice just because the unique external liner means it's hassle free and all protectors are sas tech level 2 ones.
