Technically if ya helmet doesn't have an AS1698 sticker and you're in an accident or you get an anal cop you could be in a bit of strife..

I asked 2 insurance companies about non au helmets.
Both said the same....you have an accident (not your fault)...you're left dribbling in a wheelchair..unable to wipe ya own arse...they say 'sorry mate...illegal helmet No payout'
