I have a friend who uses a MT on his RC , but uses a small Vega on his scooters. When I asked him why? He said... " The big size of the Mt looks awkward on scooters" . I was like bro, really? 😒
Things that I've done while watching podcast 1. Wear my helmet and checked fit according to shumi 2. Tighten my buckles cause I never done that 3.cleaned my visor cause it was pretty dirty And realised that it's high time to gift myself a new helmet . Thanks powerdrift and we need such content other than reviews .
Those 3 points are The basics of Helmet... But Indian's Never give Importance To these Basic Things for Daily use.. so I can't say anything... i m using The same thing from Last 2 Years...even before That Video came... There are almost More than 5 Types of Helmets available more different Riding Purpose...But People's in India Mostly Confused about that and Only Buy LOOKER Helmet ;P to do ShowOff.... even i saw a People's using Motocross Helmets on R15 V3 and ktm's ;P
Please never worry about making too long a podcasts! The sheer knowledge and experience gained from listening to your podcasts has changed the way I ride, it has made me a better rider and I haven't jumped a single red light since I've been listening to your podcast Torque the Talk. You guys are the best ❤️
Agreed completely.. we don't look at the time when we see powerdrift podcast.. many will agree when shumi is on podcast it's like Sir aap bolte raho, hum suntey rahenge
Using HJC fg st since a year. Friends mocked me for spending so much on a helmet but i know it's worth. Safety always comes first. Great informative podcast guys. Make more of such podcasts 🤩
@@powerdriftofficial is it allowed to used ECE or DOT certified helmets in India which don't have ISI ? I came to know that ECE & DOT are superior than ISI, but what should I do when I caught by police that I'm not wearing ISI helmet. I need a bit clarification 🙏
This was a gem of a video. I am sharing this with friends, hope some of them will appreciate the importance of fitting and certifications(and watch the entire video :P).
Hello I am a doc and i am happy how Mr. Shumi integrated the concepts of medicine into the importance of helmets and he is damn correct ...trust me i have seen hundreds of cases of broken bones and cracked opened skull, lives become miserable not just the person's but also his family's.
Hey ,late comment but still I'll try So as a price range these are good companies but the specific helmet is left to you Below 10k is mt helmets (aspida .com) 10k to 50k is agv predominantly and basic shoei I guess 50k and above are shoei and arai
@@samkul1699 will have to disagree, 15-30k is where most of the good brands are having many good helmets. HJC, Scorpion, Bell etc have really good helmets in this range. AGV has okay helmets in less than 25k range. I'm using AGV K3 Sv and it's okay at best, most low priced Agv helmets just look good.
@@cinemasantha2019 Below 5k you have very few options. MT, LS2 and SOL have some good ones in this range. I personally prefer the feel of MT more. They're all ECE certified too.
@@VineetTiwariUA-cam bro go for snell certification.... HJC cl 17 pribably the cheapest snell certified helmet out there all this axis MT are justbfor good graphics
Idk how but I didn't get bored at all while listening both of them talk for 24 mins straight. Now I know why I keep on rewatching the same old review videos of powerdrift, it's coz you guys are awesome :D
Shumi sir talking about the helmets in this podcast and I am sitting like a true disciple hearing and watching every single word coming out from him. This man is a juggernaut!!
Thank you! This podcast has really been informative! I had blindly used stickers on my helmet, never knew it made such a huge impact! Even the information about the certification is really helpful! Thank you once again!
And i used to think that the cheek pads are removable so that it can be washed This video was one the most informative video I have ever seen. Thankyou so much
Some helmets have emergency release straps for the pads. This helps the rescue personal safely take off the helmet. This is system is not meant to be used to remove the pads for washing.
Late but never, it's good to know what I bought and how far it will go also came to know how to retire it and buy new one. I've less expensive helmet from Axor but both certification is there. Realy good podcasts I've found on PowerDrift. Keep sharing and teaching us with such a useful lessons.
@@powerdriftofficial when the topic has come down to choosing the right helmet, i think the next video should present topics like ethical riding and about choosing the right riding gear for a biker which would focus more on beginners. If this seems to create a monotony in the taste of videos, we should go for topics like conduct and brotherhood related in biker community or fun topics like why should we take part in rallies and stuff like that. Since podcasts are usually done on topics of certain importance, these should be really good. And now it depends on what is more important; choosing great topics as a creator ..or choosing more consumable content for the masses. Honoured that i could give in my little bit towards the team❤️ #pdarmy
Any recommendations for a beginner track helmet?I went through a lot of documentation and saw that most budget manufacturers who provide d ring with their helmets are not approved by fmsci and also mandates at least a fiber glass shell.Any helmet under 10k to start track ridding?
Great Podcast and One of the most important biker topic.Great arena to showcase one of the most experienced biker in country Shumi.Great work Powerdrift.
The two legends, though Shumi is like a BOSS and Varun(I love him a lot) has a lot to learn(in a positive way). You guys rock, hope to meet you both in person some day. Good Luck to you two
Great podcast PD ✌️ Any suggestions on how to dispose off the helmet after it completes it's 2/3/5 yrs of life... I mean can it be recycled? Can it be sent back to the manufacturer or can it be disposed off without trashing it?
I have a question about my helmet which is I had met with an accident five months ago so i have to change my helmet or I can continue with it ? @powerdrift
Great video Power Drift ....... Please make a video specifically in the context of a common man too ...... Who rides not as a hobby but just as a means of affordable transportation..... Rides a 50k bike 100cc....... And Rides around 20 to 50 km/hr.. Rides in city traffic......Stops at small distances from shop to shop for shopping . In hot and humid conditions.......... Won't spend more than 3k on a helmet..... What's the best choices he can make in that budget ?
Please make more such educative life saver videos. We need these badly as still there isn't much awareness about these things in our society. I personally learned a lot from this.
God oh God! I was a click away from ordering my helmet online and just came across this fantastic video. I've definitely got to re evaluate my options now!
Shumi is right about the 'G'. I recently had a training session in my company for defensive riding and they said the same thing about the G. Always remember if you're not wearing a helmet ' IF YOU ARE LUCKY U WILL DIE IF U R UNLUCKY U BECOME A VEGETABLE'😂😂😂 QUOTE BY SHUMI
I live in a small town with no premium helmet shops and glad that I spent money to travel to Banglore just to get the right fitting helmet and finally ended up buying MT REVENGE 2.
What about those helmets which have foldable front beak (i dnt exactly know what they name it)? Are those same? I have heard that those tend to go up on falling off. ?
@@powerdriftofficial thanks 1 suggestion for podcast? Engine oils, chain cleaning Some best brands and also which cc bike owners should prefer which brand.? Would love to hear shumi sir on this topic. 😀
Very very informative video. I have an SMK and it meets every specification that you mentioned. It's also ECE certified. Really happy with the fit, the quality. Works for me.
Very informative. Just got enough info about helmets. If you could you suggest a good helmet for an average person buying a helmet, which brand should that be regarding safety is of priority.
Thank you powerdrift for the podcast series. it is very useful and informative and most importantly it cleared many of my misconceptions about helmets. Shumi and Vrun are doing a very good job. I'm going to buy a better helmet now than my steelbird sba-1.
I just got a bell qualifier after doing a ton of research . It was the one that fit me best within my budget and I will probably be saving up and going for an Shoei / Arai for my next one. After having a concussion few months ago due to a crap helmet that didn't even fit me very well, I would say its 100 % worth it.
@@powerdriftofficial Thankfully there wasn't any significant permanent damage, but let's just say I'm not a big fan of not remembering where I'm at or where my home is for half an hour.
I have a steelbird air sba 2 the one with blue graphics... 😅 does the job for me as I'm a college student... Anyways, I love this video... Thanks @powerdrift 🛵
most of the time when a helmet falls off on its own, its usually ok unless there is something heavy inside like a head. The shell is not that delicate. its the EPS that you should be worry about
Just buying my first proper helmet (had a vega cause I was in college and I had a Dio so all I could afford), but now I’ve bought a CB300R and so it’s time for the proper equipment. This was very helpful, thanks guys.
This is an old video, but I was wondering that if applying stickers to helmet is bad, then what about the action camera mounts which we stick to helmets?
No one can stress the importance enough and many people don’t know this, especially about the fit and certification, I luckily had people who told me the important things when I bought my HJC this will probably help a lot of people, thank you pd
Its so crazy how so many young riders who are just learning how to ride motorcycles, want to "LOOK GOOD" on their bikes and roll upto college on a sports bike but not wear a helmet in the process. I'm just 17, and out of the 10-12 people around me who drive bikes everyday, only 2 have the habit of using helmets properly. My dad taught me how to ride an activa a year and a half ago, but I'm still not allowed to drive it out on main roads because I cannot find a snug fit helmet, It was always quite annoying but 28 minutes of helmet theory and it all makes sense now
This is a brilliant podcast. It has enough of everything (knowledge , humour , presentation , content ). At no point in time I felt it was a long video. Amazing I now know which certifications I can trust , before this I would buy any helmet with xyz certification. Keep up the good work guys. 👍
your opinion about schubert c3 pro ie over all opinion about the helmet per se and also....can i sticker it up? The helmet manual makes no mention about stickering it up
amazing informative video and perfect duo of experience and youth!!! plzz make more like this on how to ride safely on roads how to avoid blank spots and pot holes and also how to prepare for long distance riding....
Can you suggest some points on buying helmet for people who wear specs. The biggest issues I have faced till now is the because of tight fitting the specs rims getting damaged or causing irritation while riding.
My head fits a XS size. Even a S size does not feel tight enough and wobbles a little. Nowhere could I find one within the budget. I had to visit at least 8 to 10 shops in Mumbai and Bangalore till I found one of that size. I did not compromise and took my time to make sure I get the right one for me.
recently a month back my bike and I experienced a skid had a impact directly on helmet at 60 to 70 kmph on a road. There are no cracks or visible scratches on the my ninja 3rd generation helmet bought 10 months ago should I use it or buy a new one.
Just one idea of podcast popped in my head.. many of us enthusiast who are on very limited budget may have lot of doubts on.. that is proper riding gear.. I mean u can talk on good riding gear.. Riding jacket from budget to expensive, boots etc.. what to look out for while buying the jacket.. like in torque the talk podcast on preparing for rain shumi spoke on the fit of the jacket.. like this you guys can have a podcast on riding gear for a beginner.. I have noticed many ignoring the importance of good riding gears just like they ignore good helmet.. hoping to see it
There are so many shops, Aaron. Almost every Indian brand has its own website from which you can purchase. For non-Indian brands, you can check out their website for official dealers in India.
Really worth giving 25 minutes of your life to save hours in future! I was looking for this kind of video for helmet from long time. It would be a great help if you could mention best helmets available at different prices. Keep making this kind of very very informative, interesting and useful videos in future. I just Love your videos! 😎
I am thinking of whether I should try touring on motorcycles (been a car guy uptill now). It woukd be great if u can make a podcast on what do you love about motorcycling, given it comes with its quirks in terms of safety, comfort and so many other things. Especially when you consider touring on it.
Hello PDArmy! Which was the funniest thing you've heard about helmets? Tell us in the comments!
₹150 bachta hai😎
They: "Array, helmet kyu? Idhar police nahi pakadta hai."
I: 😖

Can you suggest some points on buying helmet for people who wear specs. The biggest issues I have faced till now is the because of tight fitting the specs rims getting damaged or causing irritation while riding.
Hey guys thank you so much! This content really helps me! 🙏🏼

Superb discussion it was really guide to choose a good helmet . THANKS SCHUMI AND THE HOST
Thanks, Joy. We'll pass on your message to Shumi and Varun :)
Any suggestions for a good fit for guys with specs?
My head fits a XS size. Even a S size does not feel tight enough and wobbles a little. Nowhere could I find one within the budget. I had to visit at least 8 to 10 shops in Mumbai and Bangalore till I found one of that size. I did not compromise and took my time to make sure I get the right one for me.
6 minutes into it, I already love it
Are the HJCs rpha 11 etc are also the exact same used by racers like Lorenzo ? Or is the shell different for them ?
Thanks Shumi! Insightful & helpful as always.
recently a month back my bike and I experienced a skid had a impact directly on helmet at 60 to 70 kmph on a road.
There are no cracks or visible scratches on the my ninja 3rd generation helmet bought 10 months ago should I use it or buy a new one.
Do have it inspected by an authorised dealer, Vinay. Hard to determine without checking it.
Though it would be a safe bet to replace it.
is it safe to do nano ceramic coating on helmet?
Just recently bought the first two helmets of my life, mt hummer for my wife and mt thunder 3 sv for myself. Mind you we ride Honda activa..
Why did not I watch this before?? More of these, please!!
Just one idea of podcast popped in my head.. many of us enthusiast who are on very limited budget may have lot of doubts on.. that is proper riding gear.. I mean u can talk on good riding gear.. Riding jacket from budget to expensive, boots etc.. what to look out for while buying the jacket.. like in torque the talk podcast on preparing for rain shumi spoke on the fit of the jacket.. like this you guys can have a podcast on riding gear for a beginner.. I have noticed many ignoring the importance of good riding gears just like they ignore good helmet.. hoping to see it
Hey, thanks for that suggestion, Shankar!
Where do you guys get good gear from?
There are so many shops, Aaron. Almost every Indian brand has its own website from which you can purchase. For non-Indian brands, you can check out their website for official dealers in India.
@@powerdriftofficial thanks for replying guys i appreciate it
Really worth giving 25 minutes of your life to save hours in future!
I was looking for this kind of video for helmet from long time.
It would be a great help if you could mention best helmets available at different prices.
Keep making this kind of very very informative, interesting and useful videos in future.
I just Love your videos! 😎
gagaga i love these podcasts with shumi , please more shumi podcasts ,
His style is super :D
I am thinking of whether I should try touring on motorcycles (been a car guy uptill now).
It woukd be great if u can make a podcast on what do you love about motorcycling, given it comes with its quirks in terms of safety, comfort and so many other things. Especially when you consider touring on it.
Which hamlet do you suggest best entry level price
