Default agv helmets

i'm looking for a decent spare helmet and found some that seem to be too cheap. i'm only familiar with shoei and arai, so i'm hoping some of you guys might have some experience with agv helmets.

for example

I've heard they're decent quality but if you're gonna get a new helmet..get the best you can afford. I bought a Vega for like $120 but I wis I would have just gotten a better quality one to begin with instead of wanting to upgrade in the near future.

The lower priced agv's are ok. The higher priced ones are great. If you're looking for a helmet on a budget, check out kbc and hjc. Personally, I'll only wear arai. Expensive? Yes, but it's your head.

i have the agv xvent and its pretty good. i think its pretty comfortable and nice ventilation. But then again i've never owned another helmet besides a cheapo vega helmet that was crap.

I'm on a really tight budget too...so you guys think it'll be fine to use as a helmet for drag racing too? I'm hopin to break 13s this year and I'll need a helmet. this helmet might be used for a future bike also.
