I tried one on and didn't like the way it fit on my head. The scorpion exo 700 has some pretty cool technology built into it. check out the web page and watch some of the vids...but go try one on.

They do run a bit small, i.e I had to go up a size from normal helmet sizing. I have the EXO 700 and love it, especially the anti-fog technology. I've ridden in very humid times and never had it fog, my glasses will fog but never the visor. My other helmet (a cheapo) would all the time. Mine vents very well and is comfortable. Never crash tested it though so I can't speak to that portion.

I've had my EXO 700 for about a year and I love it. This brand has more cheek and neck padding than many other brands and is probably why they are so quite. The extra padding also makes them feel more "snug" than another brand of the same size. I got used to it very quickly.In the past, I tended to buy helmets that were looser fitting which seemed more comfortable while standing next to my bike but would move around on my head at highway speeds and above. Not good! Also, these helmets have excellent ventilation. The liner is completely washable / replacable and comes in several cool color / pattern combinations too! The liner is always the first part to go, if you're lucky! ) Hope this helps!

I have an EXO 700 also. For the money I don't think you can find a better helmet. I've had mine more than a year, and have tried on other helmets and I don't like any of them as well as the Scorpion. The anti-fog is great. The new EXO 1000 looks pretty awesome, if you can find one. Not sure if they're available yet.

i am a dealer for scorpion and those helmets rock. we sell a ton and realy don't have any problems. the new exo 1000 looks nasty but are not relly out yet in #s. the 700 id def. vented better than the 400 but still a great helmet w/ a reasonable price.
