Following my recent meeting with the mudmonster, I have a question I need to ask.

According to a fried you need to replace your helmet after an off.
I have not cleaned my helmet yet, but thought that if I see no scratches or impact markings on the helmet that I wil keep using it.
Should there be any damage to the side of the helmet, I might replace.

I am not looking at an excuse for a new helmet, but if the biking gurus think I need to consider that, I might.
(Although getting a new dual sport helmet might not be such a bad idea, come to think of it... :mwink:)

What is the general concensus on this issue?
