Hi all,

I'm looking for advice on finding a helmet store in Bangkok, for open face helmet.

Between, 5 and 10 000.

Thanks.

There are few. 

 

Paddock and Panda Rider as already mentioned. 

 

There is also HelmetshipBKK out near the airport (a bit out of the way, but a decent selection of Bell Helmets).

 

There is Gorilla Rider Helmets   (online Nakhon Sawan).

 

 

The issue I have found is size - its difficult to purchase a helmet online because of the fit. 

 

Thus: I find the model I like and go to a shop and check the sizing...  

They may not always have the colour / size combo you want in the shop.... 

 

Then purchase the helmet online i.e. on Lazada 

https://www.lazada.co.th/products/bell-eliminator-helmet-gloss-white-gorilla-rider-bell-i2018108441.html

 

No need to worry about fakes - If its fake, you can return it on Lazada.

Best options are: 

 

Classic look: 

Bell Custom 500 (HelmetshopBKK)

Biltwell Bonanza (https://bangkokcustom.com / HelmetshopBKK)

Bumshaker (selection at RealRider - Mega Bangna)

 

More modern / higher end: 

Shoei J-Cruise (Paddock)

Schuberth M1 (Panda Rider)

You need to try and make your jokes a bit funny, rather than just mentioning things to do with sex .

A big bugg might change your mind about open face helmets ????

 

I got hit pretty bad in high speed, but not as bad as one other guy who got an open flesh wound on his cheek. Take care, be safe

& birds.

Never hit a bird, but I did get a rather angry bee between my WWII flying goggles and my open face lid (would have been in the late 70s). That was an, er, interesting experience.

Once upon a time in Isaan...

whacked 2 birds,

those small dove-looking ones.

one off the helmet,

one off the fairing.

Insects are scary.

I realize the OP already made his selection.

 

I'll just add that the most comfortable helmet I've ever had is my current Bell Scout Air ~7K฿.

 

Available at Chang Moto in CM and at ร้านหมวกกันน็อค Helmetshopbkk (on Facebook) in Bangkok.

Unrelated to the Helmet, but for motorbike gear I recommend Riders Care in Chiang Mai, the people there are more helpful and many things are a bit cheaper there.
