So I emailed Shoei UK: Thank you for your email. Your email has been forwarded to us as we are the official Shoei distributor in the UK. In regards to your enquiry, you would need to visit a Shoei retailer who can order an ACU gold sticker for your NXR. The stickers don’t cost anything but have to be allocated to a dealer, we’re unable to just post them out unfortunately. You can find your nearest Shoei retailer here - http://www.shoeiassured.co.uk/shoeidealers.php Kind Regards, So called my local retailer "just pop in with the helmet". Job jobbed!
My flip front helmet has a gold sticker. Wouldn’t go anywhere near a track with it. Racing is still done, this is just trackdays.
Schuberth C3s are approved by the ACU for track use and they're a flip front (it was the first flip front to be approved as such) but they don't have a gold sticker.
Well I was very impressed Shoei will give me a sticker even if you lot aren't! Especially as I was about to blow £300 on a x-lite.
The X-Lite reps provide the retailer with the exact number of ACU stickers for the ACU compliant helmets they have. Last time I saw the exchange, the rep actually wrote the name of the helmet the sticker was intended for on the back of the sticker. Andy
