oh and thanks graeme for putting hedon on my radar, trying to figure out if theyre legal here now

I have to ask, how keen cops are checking your lids in the land of milk 'n' honey??

Asking cause I've been riding past 20 or so years with totally illegal lid a O-Hei helmet. Similar to Davida classic but true vintage. Never had an issue with cops.

Sometimes when I use 3/4 helmet, they're novelty or just plain old, with no approvals. Also never a problem.

G, sorry, didn't find time to pop in to see these guys at the weekend, but it looks like you're moving forward quickly - are they building a new bike for you?

In KY and most of the surrounding states we are free to choose to ride helmet-free… No cops bugging you about exercising your rights.

[summ3rhays]

Utah is the same way.  No helmet laws.  Personally I wouldn't ride without one, but it a choice.

Are you in Ontario? Apparently ECE lids are legal there since 2012.

My Google Fu is strong!

So are you going to order up a Hedon then @natehate ? If it's any help, they felt as though they had a long oval fit, similar to a Davida lid.

[natehate]

sent you a pm @Graeme

Just how fast are modern bikes? :o

[summ3rhays]

Pretty cool.  I watched that yesterday.
