Is it Snell 2005? I'm looking for a new helmet for the ISDE...

No they are not Snell or DOT certified.

How did Knighter and the gang get away with using them in the WEC and ISDE? Or did they?

I was wondering the same thing.
Maybe SNELL is not a requirement.

It meets these standards "EC22-05 Standard & ACU Gold Approved" which I beleive are what the ISDE and WEC approve of. The EC22-05 is about the same as Snell. Suomy helmets are not Snell either.

gasgasman,
I've looked at those helmet on line, but the exchange rate and shipping horror stories kept me from ordering.
I'm not scared anymore.
I have a question on sizing, did you wear a large in the Arai?

Mike, I was the same way. It took me 3 months before I pulled the trigger.

Yes, the I wore a size "L" Arai.

I just looked up the helmet standards for the FIM and they must meet one of these ECE 22-05 , or JIS T (Japan) or Snell M2005. So the Airoh is legal for the ISDE and WEC.

Hey, TM_ENduro and I have been talking for a very long time about these Fantastic helmets, I have contacted Airoh Myself personally and asked about Importing them...and they said they are not importing them into the US....So I called Motoxerotica DAVE...where I wrk and asked him if we can start importing these helmets,,,Every single racer on TM's Team wears these helmets...he is looking into this as we speak...I have been pushing for this helmet for a couple of months...so hopefully soon we will have these....The problem for a Importer is the Liability Insurance.....TM carries that insurance for the Importer...So we are going to talk with Patrick the National Sales Manager for TM...and him to give us some info, Perhaps we can work something out...Even if we dont im still buying one....They meet more safety standards than any helmet here in the US

BTW,,fantastic pictures, thankyou..Awesome Helmet,,,
