Bought my First Bike (Helmet Recommendation Pls)

Hey Guys! I had posted a while back about choosing the Ronin and N160 and I have finnally gone with neither and picked the N250 😂.

Before I get into the story of why I picked the N250 I just wanted to thank this community for helping me decide and being open and honest about their experiences. Also please recommend me helmet and gloves for this bike my budget is upto 5k. I know ECE Standard is a must but those come at a high cost.

Anyways I had decided to pick the TVS Ronin and I did go to the showroom to book the bike. I took another testride and honestly something felt odd with this one. The bike struggle to go to 3rd gear. Also there was customer there who had come to collect the plates of his TVS Jupiter and he came to me seeing me ride the bike and completely went off about the TVS service. He said I should rather cough up some more money and get a good royal enfield bike compared to Ronin as the spares and after service with TVS is absolutely abysmal. Seeing all these red flags fly I left the showroom without booking and test rode the N160 and the N250.

Well compared to the Ronin, N250 felt much more smoother and easy to ride. I wasn't as nervous as I was riding the Ronin. So I finalised that bike. I liked the offering it felt a lot more value for money and now I am waiting on the plates to officially take it everywhere.

TL;DR: Bought Pulsar N250 as first bike over Ronin because of bad vibes overall. Need Helmet and Gloves Recommendation.
