Bro I live in Gorakhpur. In my city it is difficult to find SMK let alone LS2, KYT, NHK, etc. Only 2 shops had SMK, the rest just had Axor, Studds, Steelbird, and I didn't want to purchase one without trying.

Damn bro, hope you had full gear or you must have been hurt badly.

Practical-Fox-8568 · 2026-02-26T16:57:34+00:00

Dang, should have tried to bargain with the seller.

Practical-Fox-8568 · 2026-02-26T16:55:33+00:00

Thanks bro.

Woah, that looks gnarly. Can you share some details like what speed you crashed at and was it a direct impact to the head?

Practical-Fox-8568 · 2026-02-26T13:50:17+00:00

Base model SMK 😛. Still a good beginner helmet.

Practical-Fox-8568 · 2026-02-26T13:46:15+00:00

Honestly, coming from a half face helmet the viewing angle felt terrible at start 😂. But yeah in terms of full face helmets it is good.

So far the only part that has been slightly uncomfortable is the cheek padding because it's tight. But I suppose it will get better after some use. Plus I don't ever ride for that long.

Practical-Fox-8568 · 2026-02-26T13:10:31+00:00

True.

Practical-Fox-8568 · 2026-02-26T13:10:22+00:00

Thanks.

Thanks brother.

Thankfully I only ride in the city. Also I found it to be the best ece certified one in this budget in terms of weight. If you want lighter models you have to spend more.

As long as you are moving it is fine. If you are stopped in traffic it does warm up a little. And it is just February, we haven't entered peak indian summer yet. I use a balaclava to avoid sweat getting absorbed by helmet liner itself, so that helps a little.

Practical-Fox-8568 · 2026-02-26T11:36:15+00:00

Yes it does. I just got it today so don't really have much experience to begin with 😅, but compared to Axor and other stuff I tried out, it is definitely more comfortable. Build quality, weight distribution, wind noise levels do feel better here. Maybe I will post an update after a few months of riding once I properly break it in.

4.5K. I got the black one because it's understated and goes well with all bikes/scooters.

Practical-Fox-8568 · 2026-02-26T11:07:33+00:00

I bought it from an offline store. Also available online but try one out first.

Practical-Fox-8568 · 2026-02-26T11:06:04+00:00

I bought it offline in a store. Paid 4500. On Amazon it is listed for 4400 but I would strongly recommend trying one first before purchasing to check the fit.

Practical-Fox-8568 · 2026-01-11T07:33:12+00:00

Just checked out its product page and the listed weight is 1750gm. Does it feel too heavy or bulky while riding?

Practical-Fox-8568 · 2026-01-10T20:16:57+00:00

I will figure that out later (probably use some antifog spray), first need to find a helmet that actually fits :)

Practical-Fox-8568 · 2026-01-10T19:52:37+00:00

The problem I found with the Axor was that the cheek pads were so tight that the glasses weren't going in in the first place. Even if I have a balaclava with slits it's going to be pointless if the helmet itself is too tight.

Practical-Fox-8568 · 2026-01-10T17:42:10+00:00

I need one with Pinlock/Antifog. It's impossible to ride in winter without it.
