No prob.

Sorry it copied all crazy but from the 2010 LRRS rulebook (because I could not find the 2011 rulebook)

"HELMETS: Helmets must be full coverage with an attached face shield. Tearoff's are not allowed. Quick release helmet straps are also not allowed unless original equipment. The helmet must meet DOT plus Snell M2005 and
M2010(USA) approval or the British Blue Label standard BSI 6658 Type A
helmet standard or the European ECE22-04 & ECE22-05 P standard. The
appropriate stickers must be attached. Any helmet that has been damaged or
suffered a severe impact must be replaced or sent to the manufacturer to be
inspected. All helmets must pass tech inspection. The riders number must be
displayed on the helmet.
Helmets may not be more than 5 years old as determined by the date of
manufacture in or on the helmet. Polycarbonate helmets are not allowed."

Nice and very easy to understand. So the ECE22-05 P standard is the newest standard for European. So ill be fine with a new AGV k3 correct.

The K3's are plastic. I don't think they will pass tech. Get a Stealth.

And i should be good with that right? Thats a 2011 model?

Read the rule book and ask yourself "does my helmet fill the criteria?"

The Stealth model has been out for a couple years. I race in one (and an XR2).

As Bergs says. As long as it meet the rulebook you are good.

Hey no worries. Happens all the time.

[victor24-7]

Thanks, i ended up getting a AGV XR-2

[victor24-7]

Little problem. Got the XR-2 in the mail today and found out tht the production date is 07/05. But the thing is the most comfortable helmet I have ever tried.

[Doc]

That is probably why you got it cheap...

You need to get a newer helmet to pass tech.

This is exactly why I go to Duncan Moto. I get a proper fit from Mrs. Duncan on the freshest lids from Mr. Duncan.
