Only 2 years, but that's because I bounced an 8 year-old Arai when the Duc tried to kill me. New one is Arai too.

sjbmw now have 'em.

I have a S5 BMW helmet...not sure how old it is, but I've been wearing it regularly now for 18months. Before that I had a Schuberth Concept.

Here's the S4 BMW helmet that preceded the Schuberth...
