Beelzebub89 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 always wanted one but if I get a new helmet it will be for when I get my bike and the simpson ones aren't legal for road use. The haven't had the required testing to be standard compliant...

Smity42 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 @Colin: bike helmets are allowed under the current regs, as long as they meet AS1698. I use one. BUT as Josh has said, they are not rated for the same kind of impacts as motorsport helmets. A new helmet for me has been long overdue, I guess that makes me a muppet I have been trying to track down solid info on what the requirements are changing to. I beleive they are dropping AS1698, and possibly a lot of the other older standards as well, and requiring a HANS device. I'm not going to buy a helmet until I know it will meet the new regs.

Beelzebub89 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Best fitting helmets I've ever tried. So light aswell. I reckon my next helmet will be a Shoei helmet. Mum n Dad have both got Shoei's and they're great. I thought they changed the regs so they had to be compliant with an AS/NZ code not just the AS one. Not sure will have to do a little research Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/261269-inner-west-crew-whoretown-toowongst-luciakenmoreindooroopilly-and-sometimes-sunnybank/page/179/#findComment-4811902 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nismo_Boy Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 I've got a couple of road bike helmets. I think they may be out of date. BS if I cant use them they're legal on the road so why not down a drag strip... You can.. If they are in date. at an event, you might as a road helmet isnt anything like a moto-x/dirt bike helmet. at a CAMS event, thats a whole other story. They can ask you to go home with a JAP cage if they wish.
