Hi There
       I got the helmet at a bike show here in Holland for 100euros.Its a Bell M1 and you can still get them but the colours have changed.I dont see any Lawson reps in the listing now.The GPz is fine for a 20minute thrash but feels gutless and uncomfy compared to the FJ.
                                   cheers

a 20 minute fang?  :shok: lol my fj is slower than my old gpz 750!!! used to get 268 out of my grey import gpz 750 ( same colours as the 900 r just sleeved down.) can only get about 228 out of the fj  but i am down on compression (lazy) and am leaking oil( lazy again) and then there is the various rattles hums chinks and buzzes ( soooooo lazy....) can u guess i got a soft spot for the reliable predictable and stable old zed? lol.... im losing my marbles...... :wacko2:. ( ps if you need a set of barrells and pistons / rings i have a set sitting here holding my bench down)
cheers

There is no Australian Standard sticker needed on any helmet worn in Australia.
Do a search on this site.

Just took my new lid for a ride today. It looks like this:
http://www.speedaddictcycles.com/c=LnXMlU9FNm1G3MnO7EOVMhvM5/product/01-611/Suomy-Apex-Cool-Red-Full-Face-Helmet.html

Light weight, really fits my head, well vented and the graphics really go well with my Monkey suit. Haveing a lid that fits really enhances the ride.
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

Did you wind up buying the larger one and padding it out, or were you able to find a smaller one?
