Review of Daijya (Marushin) Motorcycle Helmets in India
Daijya Helmets are the hottest selling premium segment helmets in India today. The helmets have a very cool Japanese Theme design and appeal a lot to the Bikers. Since its launch in India they have been selling like hot cakes and have made a place in everyone’s wish list.
Daijya Helmets are manufactured by Marushin helmets specially for India and costs less from the actual Marushin Helmets. Daijya Helmets are Imported, Promoted and Sold by PlanetDSG (http://planetdsg.com) through their online and offline store in India.
The helmet that we are displaying is the Daijya Shivan Mysthic Full Face Helmet and is the flagship model of Daijya more correctly Marushin released on the 50th Aniversary of Marushin.
FITTING & FINISH OF THE DAIJYA HELMETS
The Design of the helmets is what bikers look at first before getting a lid for themselves with all their hard earned money and paying for a premium segment Helmet means that the Helmet has to be the best. The Daijya Helmet that we are reviewing has a matte finish with a bit of rubbery feeling. The helmet has a very distinctive Japanese Dragon on it while other models has the same Japanese Theme graphics which add to the plus point of the Helmet. The finish of the graphics along with the plastic piping at the bottom of the helmet is nicely placed to hold the padding firmly.
First of all the fitting of the Helmet is very good which firmly fits into your head and holds your chin. Very good in case of accidents. The shape of the helmet is Oval and thus provides better fitting and feels very comfortable while on long rides or even small city rides. The Daijya helmets have a broad and soft padding which is the main cause of the comfy fitting. The Paddings are removable for washing.
The Helmets comes with the Double D-ring fastening mechanism with nylon straps for fastening the helmet which is a very effective way and also used in the MotoGP helmets.
The helmets have good ventilation systems which allow fresh air inside and also very effective in clearing fogs during winter rides. The vents are on top and in front. There is a whistling noise while riding even at 90 kmph.
The Visor that comes with the Daijya Helmets are scratch resistant and also anti-glare. So riding during nights is again possible with visors down. The Visors catch up fog very soon but the air vents make it disappear very effectively. The Visor is a bit optically incorrect. The visors can be fit on the helmet very easily which helps changing the visors very fast.
The Helmets come with two types of Visors namely, Plain and iridium coated ones (coloured).
