This might be useful for anyone thinking of bringing their biking gear over. Any bikers with European standard helmets (ECE 22.05); looks like they are now legal in Victoria.

Totally pissed off after selling both our lids for next to nothing. We move in October and now we have to buy again. Stupid bloody AUssie laws.

We used our British ones for best part of 10 years. The way I looked at it was that they were actually marked to a higher standard. A mate bought some sort of Harley thing and posted a photo of his new lid, it was basically a fibreglass German WW2 helmet but THAT was legal. Ridiculous.
