O well, no Fulmer too bad. I guess I'll just live with DOT & SNELL approved for now.

my icon airmada wasn't listed but the two helmets they have are a 3 and 4 so I'll go with 3.5 until it becomes listed

My Arai RX-Q, which appears to be listed as the Quantum, gets a 3-star rating. Very good on the front top and rear, but poor on the sides. Kinda disappointing for a $600 helmet.

My other helmet, a Scorpion EXO-500, gets 4 stars.

It's the UK government, so they really only test UK sold helmets.

Bit of an eye opener on price versus safety, There seems to be little correlation.

My LS2 rated 5 out of 5, one of the reason I got it. Some of the most expensive brands got low low scores.
