View Full Version : zeus 508w concern
KidlatTahimik January 6th, 2007, 01:56 PM Just wondering if any of you guys experience this: when running at high speeds, pumapakat yung buong harap ng helmet sa mukha ko, snug fit naman sya, pero pakiramdam ko, masyadong maliit yung clearance ng helmet at mukha (sa 508w lang naman) parang ang pakiramdam ko pag nag crash, hindi protektako
nareh January 6th, 2007, 02:30 PM i guess, maluwang sya.. try nyo mag-suot ng balaclava
Col.TED January 6th, 2007, 02:43 PM yan ang common comment sa Zeus 508w......masyadong malapit yun face mask, lens & chin.......minsan nga nakakailang i-lock yung face mask pag dito-dito lang kasi parang ang sikip nga sa harap unlike sa HJC & other helmets na with adequate clearance sa mukha.:)
KidlatTahimik January 6th, 2007, 03:09 PM yun nga sir, nakakatakot minsan, pero sa mga feedback ng mga nakapag crash test, ok naman, ska kung d ok, d naman na sila makakapag feedback diba? psychological lang siguro, parang nag ti-trigger ng claustrophobia ung kakulangan ng space sa loob ng helmet
Tat January 6th, 2007, 03:28 PM I'm using the same helmet... ok naman. I guess you just have to choose the right size for you. :)
KidlatTahimik January 6th, 2007, 03:48 PM yung size ko kasi snug fit, talagang may konting pressure sa ulo, baka kaya napipiga lang yung taba ko sa pisngi kaya lumalabas sa harap...imaginin nyo nalang....parang si flounder sa little mermaid hehe...kaya sumisikip sa visor at face mask.
noypito January 6th, 2007, 11:43 PM try mo sikipan ang strap. pipigilin ng strap na dumikit sa mukha ang harap ng helmet pag sa high speed
froilanr January 8th, 2007, 09:51 AM Punta ka sa link na ito para sa proper fit (http://www.hjchelmets.com/proper_fit.htm).
NSCB January 8th, 2007, 10:05 AM bro...try ka rin ng ibang brand or model....size is just one of the things we should consider when buying a helmet...another factor would be the shape of your head....
i used to have a 508W before...my brother is now using it...
dy1qun January 10th, 2007, 07:10 PM I'm using 508W and it's great...try other size ...peace bro.
merwintallan January 12th, 2007, 09:35 AM im also using zeus 508w so far im very happy.may mga sizes naman ang zeus isuot mo muna bago mo bilin sa exceed madami.

Sir try mo sa Action Hobbie, nabili ko ang 508 ko sale price P2,800 hndi ko lang alam kung bumalik na sila sa original price. Ang difference ng 508 at 508w ay print. plain colors kasi ang 508 ang 508w ay may design.. Sukat mo ng maigi dapat snug fit sau madami din choises ng zeus helmets dun. Look for sir Arwin or kahit sino staff dun mababait lahat sila :D
Ride safe bro..
Col.TED January 14th, 2007, 10:52 AM I don't know if it's just me or anybody else.....the helmet is snug-fit naman & yet once i closed & locked the face mask.....masyado talagang malapit esp the chin part......di naman ako babalu,hehehe:):):)
ghmitch January 14th, 2007, 11:12 AM Guys question, ung 508W ba eh ung modular na helm? just got mine yesterday, so far okay naman sya, siguro dahil masyado lang malaki yun dati kong helmet, pero parang malapit nga ung lens sa mukha ko compared dun sa index ko. but since this is my first modular helm, couldn't really tell if its normal or not. the lens are great, napakaclear altho hirap sa gabi kase parang nakakasilaw un ilaw ng sasakyan, parang glare.. dunno whats it called.. hehe
Engineer January 14th, 2007, 11:37 AM Guys question, ung 508W ba eh ung modular na helm?
Tama po kayo sir, 508W is the modular one, I also have 508w gloss black..:)

meron din akong kast, roomy sya kahit snug fit, sa 508 lang talga ako naiilang.
b_ponkie January 14th, 2007, 07:18 PM mga sir bklt kya ung bago lo biling helmet parang ang bilis lumuwag ung tornillo dito sa mag right side kaya tuloy nahullog ung turnilyo nya, dahil ba sa pag close open ko, ZEUS din po 508w
tnx po
ghmitch January 15th, 2007, 03:25 AM baka nga dude, ung sakin din lumambot na eh.. parang pag inangat ko d na sya naglolock sa itaas.. 4days pa lang helmet ko
lexce January 15th, 2007, 06:07 AM balik mo...
B3RN13 January 15th, 2007, 08:43 AM Bro, suggest ko lang sa mga bumibili ng helmet, pag nag susukat po kayo, try to get a good fit (wag masyado maluwag) and also take into consideration yung shape ng ulo nyo. Meron mga helmet brands na fitted para sa mga rounded at pahaba na ulo so try to get the brand that best fits you para comfortable. Also remember na yung foam eh umiimpis sa katagalan so luluwag pa helmet nyo. Adjust the chin straps properly para snug sa ulo yung helmet at hindi matanggal in the event of a crash.
Ang comment ko lang po sa Zeus na 508w eh madali kalawangin yung buckle ng chin straps...
sana po nakatulong... :D
Ungas January 15th, 2007, 10:32 AM O nga madaling kalawangin, 4 months ko nang gamit, once a week ang nasusuot kalawang na agad yung metal parts ng strap including the lock.
Isa rin point to consider yung malapit sa chin area, di rin ako babalu.
Do you guys also experience fogging lenses? Tipong malamig ang outside temperature, pag hinga nyo nagkaka-fog kahit fully open yung chin vent. Isa kasi sa napansin ko walang breath guard available and chin curtain.
bj_badz January 15th, 2007, 11:20 AM Do you guys also experience fogging lenses? Tipong malamig ang outside temperature, pag hinga nyo nagkaka-fog kahit fully open yung chin vent. Isa kasi sa napansin ko walang breath guard available and chin curtain.
Na experience ko din yan sir pag nka hinto, pero pag umandar naman hndi nman. Siguro suggest ko lang eh i-open nalang ng unti ung visor para maka labas yung hot air na exhale natin. Kasi normal naman ata na mag fog ang lens especially malamig ang temp at sabayan ng hinga, kahit naman sa cage ganun din db, pag umuulan at hndi naka on ang aircon mo mag moist ang windshield mo.:)
bj_badz January 15th, 2007, 11:33 AM OT: Mga sir bakit kaya hndi natin i-try ang toothpaste?? kasi before and after ko mag dive (scuba) i use toothpaste on my mask para hndi mag fog or mag moist ganun din pag itatago ko na yung mask ko. I just make sure na well rinsed bago ko gamitin, effective naman po. Suggestion lang po
kevo January 15th, 2007, 12:10 PM I think main difference between 508 and 508W is improved ventilation in the latest 508W model.
My old HJC had great protection, with better quality build, but felt heavy and bulky compared to my 508W.
Also, cheek pads where very tight on the HJC. Ok for racing, but uncomfortable for everyday use.
Large size 508W gives me enough protection for daily riding, and fits me just right.
With any helmet, try it in the shop, and leave it on for at least 5-10 mins to get a good feel for the right fit. I wore my Zeus in the shop for a good 15 mins before deciding on the right model and size.
Mabin28 January 15th, 2007, 11:24 PM problema ko rin yung nagpa fog. ganun ba talaga?
peterzon_23 January 15th, 2007, 11:33 PM Kakabili ko pa lang ng Zeus 508w. Same ako ng experience sa inyong lahat. Pero sabi naman sakin, luluwag din daw yun foam sa loob ng helmet kaya no need yet to worry.
Magandang -resolve natin dito eh yung fog sa visor. Hassle yun, mapapasama tayo dahil dun.
bj_badz January 16th, 2007, 06:30 AM I think main difference between 508 and 508W is improved ventilation in the latest 508W model.

Ayy sorry mga sir tama pala yung vent pala ang pinag kaiba ng 508 sa 508w:clap: tsuri tsuri tao lang po:D
Stifler January 18th, 2007, 11:16 AM mga ser magkano bili nyo sa 508w nyo? sa kin 3,800 pesos, tama ba ang presyo nun?
Jepoy6 January 18th, 2007, 12:56 PM 3,500 lng kakatanung ko lng sa motoworld the fort. la pako pera bili nga din sna ako...
NSCB January 18th, 2007, 01:32 PM para dun sa mga naka-experience na lumuluwag ang turnilyo ng faceshield...i suggest you put nail polish on the thread ng screws....pag natuyo kapit ang turnilyo sa nut sa ilalim...no problem din if you need to remove it later. konti extra effort lang....mas mabuti na yan kaysa sa daan malaglag...
japes1016 January 18th, 2007, 02:58 PM 3,500 for solid color? I got mine, 508w from motoworld last December for 4,500 pesos.
I have the same problem with the face shield fogging up. I just open it slightly. Also did some research and found out even americans have the same problems. Though they still recommend this helmet for everyday use.
peterzon_23 January 18th, 2007, 07:43 PM Tama lang po yung price. Sakin kasi P3,5k sya. Pero binigyan ng discount kaya naging P3,2k or P3,3k na lang.
Pero yung tungkol sa performance, parang half face lang sya na nilagyan ng takip kaya naging fullface. Parang nanghihinayang ako. Para tuloy gusto kong bumili ng fullface talaga. Sa palagay nyo, totoo ba 'to or imagination ko lang to???
NSCB January 19th, 2007, 12:32 PM another thing that the 508 & 508W lack (same as most modular helmets out in the market)...are EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) of styrofoam in the chin bar which is available in most branded full-faced helmet. you've probably noticed that the EPS only covers the head. the jawline area are covered only by the inner Foam liner.
bj_badz January 20th, 2007, 07:06 PM 3,500 lng kakatanung ko lng sa motoworld the fort. la pako pera bili nga din sna ako...
Sir try mo sa Action Hobbies, kakabili lng ng pinsan ko 3 days ago P2,800 lang daw 508 gloss black..:D

2fast4u January 28th, 2007, 10:40 AM magkano po ba ang zeus 508 ngayon?
ano po pala ang pagka-iba ng 508 and 508w?
508w - with horn & washable inner pads
508 - opposite ng 508w - without horn & non-washable; cheaper!
bj_badz January 29th, 2007, 12:39 PM 508w - with horn & washable inner pads
508 - opposite ng 508w - without horn & non-washable; cheaper!
FYI: I have a 508 and its inner pads are washable :)
Ungas February 22nd, 2007, 08:08 PM Napansin ko lang, after wearing the 508W for 5 months, lumuwag na yung inner liner nya. XL yung size binili ko snug fit before. Ngayon medyo loose fit na on all sides. :?
peterzon_23 February 22nd, 2007, 08:30 PM Buti nga Sir sa inyo 5 months...
Akin nga, walang 20 times kong sinusuot helmet ko nang matagalan., Ayun, maluwag na., Take note, hindi ko pa nilalaban yung inner pads ha... Medium size ng helmet ko ng nabili ko., Pero parang Large na kapag suot-suot ko...Buti na lang may balaclava ako., Medyo sumisikip...
2terboy February 23rd, 2007, 01:22 AM my fake na zeus ba? my nag bebenta sa akin worth 2k lang
