    SHARP Helmets - THE HELMET SAFETY SCHEME

    Transport minister Mike Penning said: “By making sure that motorcyclists have access to the best safety information, promoting further training and safe riding, and reminding drivers to look out for bikers, I hope that we can improve safety for motorcyclists."

    Wonder if our government would ever wake up and conduct these kind of tests for the safety of the motorcycle riders of this country?

        Indeed if any of our garden variety average neta were to say such a thing , first reaction would be that "he's pulling our legs,right?" and after some time the thought would be " what's his angle?"

          Guys, while we don't have such tests by government, we do have tests done by journalists, although not on durability, but features and convenience...

          So, instead of expecting government to do something, why not expect the same from magazine journalists?
          I'm sure they'll do a better job than the average sarkari karamchari, ain't that right?
