ok, as my signature says i have a HJC samurai and im pretty sure that its not snell approved... my dirt bike helmet is however.
my big issue right now is that i found an Icon alliance helmet i fell i love with at the shop.... the only reason i have to buy the new helmet is because i like it, its comfy and because of Icon's reputation of having great gear.
i had read on there site this morning that a girl and her boy friend were hit from behind... the girl walked away ( she was wearing an icon helmet) but her boy friend was left paralyzed from the neck down... and sustained a concussion during the accident...( he was wearing a "less quality helmet") this story really pushed me to want to move to an icon helmet... i dont know much about HJC's testimonies or reputation... i got my street helmet when i had my scoots and because it was cheap... do any of you guys have any advice or some information that may ease my mind about my HJC? should i make the move to a better helmet?
