good reading...thanks...
My favorite Shoei in now at that 5 year threshold and has been used plenty...and I've been somewhat looking around. I guess I'll be making sure whatever I get has the European standard.

Re: Helmet Standards
I've been following the UK's SHARP program for a while. Some good info to be had.
