A helmet watches over your head…. This watches over your helmet.

REM Performance is excited to offer the new Shok-SpotRTM helmet impact sensor from Yorba Safety Concepts. Shok-SpotRTM is an inexpensive device that mounts stylishly on the outside of any motorcycle helmet and warns the user of possible impact damage to his or her helmet. It’s currently available in black and chrome.

Helmet manufacturers warn users that a motorcycle helmet is good for one impact, and one impact only. After that, the helmet’s shell and impact-absorbing liner may be compromised. A visual examination will not always reveal helmet damage, which can occur either in a riding accident or during general abusive treatment.

For these reasons, helmet manufacturers instruct users to either return the helmet to the factory for inspection, or discard the helmet, if it has seen a significant impact. In fact the Federal Govt. requires helmet manufacturers to affix a label warning all helmet users:``... If helmet experiences a severe blow, return it to the manufacturer for inspection, or destroy it and replace it....'' Shok-SpotRTM helps riders follow this important rule.

Parents will appreciate the Shok-SpotRTM since it’s not always easy to keep track of how their kid’s helmets have been treated, on or off the bike. And the riding public in general will notice an increased awareness to the critical subject of helmet care.

The patent-pending Shok-SpotRTM utilizes a highly reliable method of shock detection. Once the sensor turns red, indicating a severe impact, it cannot be reset. The acceleration level required to “trip” Shok-SpotRTM has been carefully selected through extensive helmet testing.

Shok-SpotRTM is made entirely in the USA.
It’s inexpensively priced at $19.95.
