Area Representative Richard Price Posted May 6, 2006 Area Representative Share Posted May 6, 2006 lotusdave, Looking at the blue book, it doesn't look like there has been any change. What standard is your helmet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mav Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 Helmets become less effective over time, due to exposure to UV and the environment. at 5+ years old, I'd suggest a change, however at the end of the day it is your head...
