Description: Great helmet, especially for the cost. The lining is the most comfortable I've ever tried on. I've only had it about 5 months, but it seems well built, and I believe they have a 5 year warranty anyway.

I can't compare wind noise and venting to higher priced helmets as this is only the 2nd helmet I've owned. I have tried on quite a few helmets, and the comfort surpasses all that I've tried.

The change of shields is pretty easy, but not quite as quick as their ads tell you. I doubt you'll get it done in 10 seconds, but I also can't imagine it getting much easier. The shields also do a pretty good job of making sure that you don't get any fog. I am starting to get just a little on the corners now since I bought it, so maybe the coating is wearing off? It's still not a problem yet, so I'll have to see.

The graphics are much better than my old HJC, but they aren't as extreme as some of the higher priced helmets. I like the design on my Octane version, but the others kind of turned me off. The quality of they graphics seem fine, but I just don't like most of the designs.

All in all, I highly doubt you'll find a better value out there, and I honostly doubt you'll find that many helmets that are that much better period. My only advice is to try it on to make sure it fits your head, and after that, I think you'll be pleased all the way around with these helmets.

Pros: Comfort, No Fog, Venting
Cons: a little larger and heavier than top end lids

I have the EXO-700 which is basicly the same as the EXO-400 but Kevlar/ Fiberglass. I\'ve had an Arai Quantom E, Rx-7rr4, an OGK FF-4, Shoei 900, and a KBC Vr-1. Of all of them I like the Arai rx-7rr4 with the OGK FF-4 a real close second but the Scorpion was $300 bucks less than both and to be honest feels very similar to the Arai inside. The Scorpion is quieter too. So for $200 bucks for the Scorpion it\'s a great deal for a second lid or if your not into spending alot of $$$ of lids.

Pros: ventilation, anti fog visor
Cons: graphics designs could be better

I recently just bought the EXO-700 and I love this helmet. I also own An Arai RX-7RR4, a Shoei Xtec & RF 800 (both retired), a KBC FFR, and a Nolan 100 (retired). Except for the Arai, nothing beats the Scorpion for comfort & ventilation. The fact that it comes standard with an anti fog visor and the fact that it only cost me $200 makes it the best bang for the buck.
