the AS/NZ 1698 is the important mark, and it has to be less than 10 years old
There is a date of manufacture on the inside of the helmet
unfortunately, SAI Global certify some junk as well, you can buy a certified full face helmet for $66.00 wholesale.
also, when you look at the sticker, it doesn't differentiate between full face and open face.
If you look at the ECE 22-05P, the "P" is for full face.
Bones , you can bring a helmet with TUV if you want, just make sure you bring another one to ride on the course in.
I read recently that due to our current free trade agreement, if a motorcycle helmet it certified for road use in a country that we have a free trade agreement with, it is legal for use on the road in Australia. However, the police in Victoria don't recognise this, and only recognise the AS/NZ1698 sticker.
Also new for this year will be DLRA helmet stickers which will be similar to the SCTA helmet sticker. When you bring your bike and gear thru scrutineering, you will have a sticker attached to your helmet when it is passed. If you get to the start line and you don't have that sticker, you will be sent back to find myself or Shane who will re inspect your helmet and re issue you with a sticker. Oh and you get to go to the back of the line
