Hey all!
Just wondering, I know we can't really order online for new helmets as customs will flag them and we have to get relevant permits etc. What about if we buy a helmet abroad and check it in? Anyone experience this here?

Dont tell me I take my helmet to Thailand for a rent and ride then fly back cannot pass through customs meh? My Rhpa 70 bought locally also dont have sirim. Thats what Im thinking.. What if I buy a new helmet in Thailand, remove the boxes and come back declaring it as my own used helmet 🤔?
