Check out the site above to see if you have any of the listed helmets. These are ones tested that were put on the shelves with DOT on them. 8 helmets failed! I found it on the Motorcyclist Magazine website.

Wow! Scary stuff!! I've never even heard of the models they've listed (though I do find it interesting that the three vendor links in that article were all sponsored by Shoei or Shoei dealers!)...

thanks for posting the link!
