True, more than that the quality of the helmet is good compared. If my preference was to get a flashy helmet i would have gone for tinted visor

Re: Saved by Helmet
Saiyan, Thank God that u r safe... and congo for ur new Helm!!!
I have fallen 2-3 times from my bike, but at low velocities. No damage to helmet, but once my gloves tore and I was pretty thankful that my palm was saved. Gloves are very important, coz the first things that instictively meet the ground are our hands.
I have Studds Ninja Helmet, which can be used as both full face and half face. Dunno it's price or it's protective qualities as it was given to me by my uncle. Guyz, Please reply if this is a good helmet, coz if not I'll have to buy a new one...
Sandeep dude, please buy it asap. 65-70 is verrrry fast
And as John Abraham said, "If a person trips while walking, can he stop walking? Once a rider always a rider".
So keep biking!!!

Please don't use the hybrid helmet. Always use only the full face helmet.
Today the shop guy showed me a hybrid helmet which costs 6k. He was actually very knowledgeable. So i asked him how safe is this hybrid helmet, he frankly accepted that they aren't as safe as the full face helmets ( whereas in another helmet shop the salesman told these are safe blah blah blah). I do agree these hybrid helmets are really comfortable n all but they come at a cost.

Re: Saved by Helmet
Hmmm good thing re baiyan u escaped with nothing serious
helmet cracking after a fall is a sign of a good helmet, it means that it has taken the impact of the fall, and not transferred to your head.
Mine AGV is now 2+ years old, i'm searching for a Shoei or an Arai helmet as a replacement. WIll cost a lot, but will be much cheaper than getting my head fixed in a hospital

Re: Saved by Helmet
^^Bikerboi now eh
Oh and if anyone is wondering what BHP stands for, dont think that it is Brake Horse Power..
Saiyan rides a Bajaj Avenger.. so that BHP translates to "Bajaj Humping Person'

Re: Saved by Helmet
^^Thats the sad case in India, none of them bother about the helmet, don't even care about it. All they need is something over the head to cover them from the cops' fine 
I really like to thank my dad, he started making me use the helmet from the start and made me realize how important it is.
P.S. I even used a helmet for TVS XL (70cc) when i go in it to school, many criticized it but i didn't bother.
and one more thing which made use the helmet always is that my eyes will start watering if i go more than 30kmph, so without a helmet i really can't ride a bike.
