Go on Ebay.Buy an Aussie certification sticker.Apply to helmet. :BEER:
I've HEARD OF helmets being checked in the eastern states on the odd occasion, but myself have never experienced that. Not in a couple of hundred thousand kms over the last four years, or even before. I don't remember coming across anyone, other than Harley riders, who have been checked either. And I have never been checked for anything at all in Tassie, where there seems to be more common sense than elsewhere. Queensland has recently changed their helmet laws to allow certain ECE 22.05 (EU) certified helmets (http://www.tmr.qld.gov.au/Safety/Queensland-road-rules/Motorcycle-road-rules.aspx), but only those with one of the several ECE 22.05 compliance stickers. There's a glimmer of sense there, if incomplete implementation, and there is the possibility of such changes in other states in the future.Insurance in the event of an an accident may be another issue.When I've been riding in NZ & the UK, I've taken my (Australian certified) helmets there. Not completely kosher, perhaps, but I felt confident that my head was protected.Mal
I assume you will do the sensible thing and get travel insurance, if so you need to check with your insurer what they will do if you make a claim having worn a non Australian approved helmet. If they say no problem then have at it.Also be careful if you have a tinted visor, this is a crime against humanity in some states ::). Just recently one Victorian officer booked another Victorian officer for having a tinted visor.............. ............. yes, seriously.
