    Me too was ripped off for the helmet at same shop

      i read bout how you got ripped off on the helmet. that bugger really tried to pull a trick. if you don't mind we can try out for the gear together. it would be helpful to have someone a little more experienced as this is my first time buy. what do you say?

          No biker is going to balaji helmets after the posts here. imagine the poor souls who do not access this forum. those chaps must be getting ripped off every day.

          • Have the Balaji's gone bad recently?

            I purchased my GPR from them last year, need to get replacement visors. I was quoted 350 bux for a clear one last year? How much does it cost now?

              i need a visor change as well as the visor holders. broke them when i had the accident. now the visor pops out at times cause the holder on the left side is broken. i remember the visor cost as Rs. 300 odd a year ago. i will need the holder as well. Dont know the current cost.

                        Sure dude. I think I will be going for a silver Cramster jacket. If its available. Orion was quoting 5.5K for that one. And I thought I saw the same type of jacket in Auto Service Banashankari for 5K. I think Orion puts a premium over everything nowadays.

                          Why not buy it from Cramster directly? You'll get the real deal!

                          @Mithun: I guess BHP and GPR stuff costs nearly the same, any idea how much does a smoked visor cost?

                              Its knee+elbow guards. it comes as a set.

                              Any of the auto shops on JC Road have them. just ask for bunjee cords and they'll give it to u.

                              • @ shadez: i haven't put in a budget per se. i think 7-8 K is de riguer for good quality gear. i need something that i can use for my daily rides a well as highway runs.

                                @ praful: buying diredct makes sense. Cramster is close to where i live. about 3-4 KM away. i wanna check that out.

                                @pranay: please let me know whenever you want to step out for the same.
