OGK lid for racing

[slipstreamer]

Ok I've been through the threads and can't find an answer. Have an OGK lid I bought 2 years ago, the new FF5. Want to use it racing next year but I can't find the manufacture date on it anywhere, also I bought it direct from them in Japan so only stamp on it is a Gold Acu I stuck on myself. This is the details from their site

"The FF-5 carries the Japanese SG safety standard(highest in the world)and also carries the MFJ standard(Motorcycle federation of Japan)which is a race standard that only the highest quality riding gear carries(for example RS Taichi and Kushitani leathers)The FF-5 also carries the FIM standard,which means this helmet is approved for World Superbike and Moto GP racing as well as all FIM approved events".

Am I going shopping?

Thanks in advance

Not worth a shite without an official bs stamp and a date stamp! You could try it but you'd want to have another lid just in case!

think it might need the ce 22.05 stamp on it and a date stamp

try under the cheak pads or on the strap under your neck

The ff5 was only released in late 2009 me thinks, not in Europe anymore but still made in Japan and available in the US
