Very cool looking helmets. I understand they're not for sale in the USA as they're not DOT or Snell approved.

They don't have to be approved. If not, however, they can only be sold as novelty items, however. That's mostly what the Harley crowd around here wheres anyway, if they even wear a helmet; a lot do not.

That's cool in Florida (no helmet law) but they check for DOT and ticket here in California!

Also, I value my head more and more as I get older. I used to have a novelty head. Then in my 30's I had a DOT head. The lil' missus now insists I have a Snell head.:rolleyes:

scwhat.. :confused: Just out of interest do you have an opinion on the safety of this Helmet?

They look OK but maybe there is a safety issue what do you think mate ?

email back from Roof Helmets:

Dear Justin.
the roof boxer helmets are ECE approved (so you can dress this helmet in all the european country).

also, this what webbikeworld.com said few years ago:
We have a copy of an independent Snell testing laboratory report from 2003 for a ROOF Boxer that passed the Snell requirements for motorcycle helmets.
We are absolutely not saying that the ROOF Boxer V meets Snell standards; all I'm saying is that a single original Boxer was sent to an independent certified Snell testing lab in 2003 and it passed the tests required for Snell certification.
I have no more information but I can tell you that the helmet passed the retaining system, chin guard and penetration tests, among others.
