Real-helmets New "ozzy" Model

[GungaDin]

1800 bt?

I sent an order by email, I've heard nothing since!

Now, if I could just get that Warning translated.

More photos here!

[gotlost]

I wonder if anyone else can ware these beside Ozzie's?

I've been trying to buy a helmet from Real online too. They have the helmet in colour & size I want, I've confirmed I want to go ahead & pay but, after two weeks and a couple more e-mails, they won't tell me HOW to pay for the helmet, so no progress.

Don't these companies want to sell their products? I'm off to Singapore in a few weeks so, if Real still don't to play ball, I'll buy there.

I bought both of my Real helmets in store, main reason being I was worried about sizing and a good thing too, their sizes are a little bit tight.

GD, I hope you ordered a large one for that head of yours

This company seriously does not know how to market.

I could increase their sales 1000% in 6 months.

In Thailand the common rule for sending an email is as followed: Send an email>phone the company ask for the manager>inform them that they have an email in their inbox.

I had to translate the invoice from Thai to english with google translate which gave the payment information, sorry to say I did not save it.

Gunga Din,

Here's what my wife came up with for a translation:

อย่า!!!ถอดหมวกกันน๊อคออกจากศรีษะโดยเด็ด ขาดขณะเกิดอุบัติเหตุ

แพทย์ เท่านั้นที่สามารถเคลื่อนย้าย

การเคลื่อนย้ายคนเจ็บผิดวิธีอาจ ถึงตายหรือพิการได้

If you're fortunate enough to get stickers made up, I want one! Plus, of course, 10% of gross royalties to my wife on any sales :-P

If it wasn't for you, we would never have heard of the Ozzy.

Is there a DOT sticker on your Ozzy?

Do you have a tel # for REAL?

Does anyone?

Thanks Brian, but I'd like to give them away or at cost, plus postage.

I'll talk to 'The Vinyl Man' tomorrow.

[GungaDin]

BTW, here's a site with a few good ideas.

I've ordered This one. Ozmates will know why.

You can try to email [email protected]

They seem to reply pretty quickly on that address.

Oops;just found the phone number 0-2728-1399

[GungaDin]

[email protected] is the address I used.

Will call them at 0900.

Thanks for the number.

[LivinLOS]

A year or so ago thier email service was superb.. Responses in minutes, everything clear and well presented in english, all made sense. I was impressed and came away feeling like 'that was an unusual thai mail order'..

Cut to a couple of months ago, unreplied emails, one line mangled tinglish, not answering the question.. Etc..

Seems whoever was good with the email left !!

[GungaDin]

Just called them, spoke to a lass named Vaneeda or similar.

Will respond in 24 hrs, she speaks good English.

Price is 1800 +200bt for EMS

How to delete that Skype crap when editing???

Edit: MartinL, give them a call!

Be very careful to order online as they seem to have a problem with the size of this particular model.

I have a gj-603 model at size M 58-59 which is a tight fit and compares with the size I used with helmets from Europe.

Today I went to a shop in Pattaya to try the ozzy model.At size M it was way to big so I tried a size S and it could use but I guess I would need a XS to have the same fit as with the GJ-603 size M.

I went to Google translate online and came up with this.

อันตราย! ไม่ สาเหตุ อัมพฤกษ์. ไม่ เอา หมวกนิรภัย จนกว่า I AM ตรวจ แพทย์

[GungaDin]

I tried on a xxl Ozzy in the "showroom" and it was a much better fit than my white GJ-603 xxl.

I hope they have the white Ozzy in stock now.

I know Allan wants to try it on..... 2 melons for the price of one.

I understand that they make 2 shells and just change the liners for size.

That's maybe where the problem lies?

Neverdie Pinhead ......... shutup.

Hey first time Ive ever been called a pin head. GD, I was thinking, when your delivery turns up, throw the helmet in the bin and wear the box

Called "Real" on the number given in this thread and, after speaking - in English - to a very helpful girl, I had payment details by e-mail within 10 minutes.

The e-mail said they don't use their English language online shop much so that probably explains the slow reaction.

[GungaDin]

[nikster]

What's the special appeal of this model?

[GungaDin]

It fits better than the GJ-603 xxl, is my main reason for buying it.

It has two visors , one clear, one dark, inside one another & it might get DOT approval.

Big choice of colors, black or white, and it's an open face.

However it can't be that big of an issue to check once a day if there are any orders from the website.

Please give an update after you received the helmet as I had just opposite experience regarding the fit.

English language online shop

I must have missed that, got a link?

[Yunnie]

OMG if you did make the warning sticker... I want one! lol

Although I'm not sure I would use that wording for Thai. I'll see if I can come up with something

My next helmet for Thailand. Schuberth Helmets are the real deal when it comes to high quality helmets.

Any update yet on the delivery and how the helmet fits?

[GungaDin]

^^^^ Delivery promised for Thursday.

I asked about the cost of spare visors and spare lining.

I think he quoted a dual price, so I backed off.

Will be interesting to see the online price of spares, if they ever get 'round to updating their website.
