Topic: Snell question
Does Snell 2005 = SA2005 or are those different ratings? I guess I want to know if this helmet is Lemons legal.

Yes you need a SA rated they are car- fire proofed Auto helmets.
You cant use a M 2005, this is a motorcycle helmet.
SA means "special application" (racing only, not legal for street use) 2005 is simply the year it conformed to the SNELL standard. You need an SA designated helmet, if you see a DOT sticker on it, it isn't an SA helmet.

There are dual compatibility helmet (SA 200x & DOT M), Pyrotect's lowest SA helmets meet DOT requirements.
Keep in mind that a gun pointed at your face superglued to a Harlet branded bandana would meet DOT regs for helmet safety.
Djcommie,
I never knew of dual compatibility helmets because typically the eye openings on SA helmets are to small for DOT approval. I guess you learn something new everyday.
