Im with Dangerous Dave the Sharp test is a load of s**t.

The Nitro will meet the required standards and that is about it, if you went for a more expensive lid it would have the required standards and more protection.

Always remember as well whats your head worth? £59.99 or £299.99?

Go and try on some other lids, my local Hein Gericke got hold of an Shoei XR1000 and battered it, with great big tools, threw it along the floor, you name it they tried f**k it up and it was still as strong as it came out of the factory with no major breaks (just no longer safe for the road)
