That's an interesting article.

Did everyone catch the in-depth report Motorcyclist magazine did last year on helmets? (My apologies if there was already a thread on that previously!) Great article, about 12 pages or so if my memory serves correctly. I don't have the month it appeared in with me at work, but can get it if anyone is interested.

I'm pretty sure the magazine lost at least 2 companies as print ad customers due to the article running if I recall reading.

Actually no I missed it. Could you post the month it appeared in so I can try to find a back issue? thanks!

I think this is the article you are referencing. I can't tell the issue but it's still available online. Fascinating reading.

Clicky

The article in motorcyclistonline really makes you question the qualities, comparison and your own choices so much.

I personally have 3 HJC's (1 Symax flip lid, one FG12, one CL11) and it throws a cloud over the range without all of them being "faulty".

Guilt by association !!
