I have exo-700, same pattern as above (fury) but mine's in red. Personally I don't think they're that comfortable, but i've only had it a week so will try to exchange for a larger size. After longer rides it really starts to hurt top of forehead/left ear and give headaches..

I have 2 helmets. I bought a Scorpion ex-400 from a member here and it was very inexpensive, but it is just about the perfect helmet IMO:



My wife bought me a Shoei X-Eleven for Father's Day and I hated it!!! I had it one day and returned it.

I took it back and exchanged it for the Shoei RF-1000:


I can honestly say that if I were to buy a brand new helmet and I could only have 1 helmet, it would be the Scorpion.

The Scorpion is more comfortable, just as quiet, less expensive and virtually impossible to fog up the shield. The Shoei is the first Shoei I have ever owned and I cannot believe how easily the shield fogs, even in the summer. I cannot imagine how badly it's going to fog in the winter.

I use the Scorpion on my 1000RR and the Shoei on my Goldwing which I ride everyday to work - 130 - 150 miles round trip.

those of you who own or have owned scorpions, whats the difference between the exo-400 and the exo-700? Is there a huge difference, or just subtle things? do you think i should get that or a shoei rf-1000?
