  I feel tat it's a gd choice(compared to other brands of the same range) for poor ppl like me lor. So far my helmet still smells good(ve not been washed since de day I bought it) and the cushion used is better in the sense tat it won't become 'flaky'.

  i agree with kof-guy... although he's a 2a rider... U Go Boy Henry!!!
  
  Anyway for those who waan buy a full face and want nice and cheap... can buy Index one... but Index not well ventilated..
  
  Those those who have a bit more money can try OGK helmets... good ventilation.. Looks nice too... price depends on design.. abt $350 - $450(haven bargain yet)...

  IMHO, one should wear a full-face whatever bike he is riding, safety first mah. Or at least a full visor.
  
  fruitfly not so bad oredi, i remember many years ago, an uncle travelling along the bukit timah flyover there, near nature reserve or something, got hit in the eye by a wasp or hornet or something, blinded one eye. Imagine the thing flying so fast towards a fast moving vehicle, like bullet man!

  yah.. try askin those with THH helmets.. i heard that THH ones are not very well ventilated.. try to find one that u like and MOST importantly... buy one that can well protect your head..

  My advice is not to get Index, Zeus, THH full face helmets. Although they are cheap, they are poor in build, safety & quality. Get the following(see to suit your budget) :
  1. Nolan ($200+) (Ah Boy)
  2. HJC ($150 - $220+)(MotoWorld)
  3. OGK ($350 - $450+) (Ah Boy)
  4. Arai/Shoei ($380 & above)
  5. AGV ($500 ++) (MotoWorld) (V. Rossi replica)
  6. Shark (MotoWorld)

  wah, agv n shark rank more than arai/shoei?!?!?!
  
  personally i feel that if u wanna get any of the branded helmets, might as well save abit more get arai/shoei...
  
  get a pi pi index/tiahaha to tong for a while 1st. then nxt time get arai/shoei liao the tiahaha can leave for pillion or wat.

  One more ting 2 add. If u're riding to m'sia(at nite esp), its always better to wear a full-face (+ jacket if u wan) bcos of de stones and insects coming ur way.
