Did anyone read the article in the June Motorcyclist comparing helmets and the testing standards? It looked at helmets that met DOT, BSI, ECE 22-05 and Snell 2000 using their own testing gear. They were specifically looking at G's transmitted to the head and their findings were that the Snell 2000 helmets were too hard and actually transmitted too much to the head -- but they held up better. The article recommends using DOT (non-Snell) helmets for motorcycles.
I was just wondering if this information would be taken into account by PCA at the national level or if our standards flow down from a racing body. It seems to me that with an airbag and a car surrounding me I would even want a softer helemt than on a motorcycle.
