Great bang for the buck
Picked this up as a clearance item and will be a perfect helmet for now. A little snug in the forehead, but not bad. Squeezes my cheeks just right and has good vision. Haven't had the chance to ride with it yet so can't really comment on sound and airflow yet

Excellent budget helmet
Great helmet. Have round head, 62cm circumference and XL fits spot on as per size chart. A bit tight in the cheeks, but I have big jaw, so this was expected (you can get thinner replacement cheek pads).
Much quieter and lighter than the poly Z1R Venom I used before (bought it from dealer when I bought a maxi scooter)
There's wind noise, but much less than the old helmet. I used to feel more than a tad scared riding highways on my Katana 750 wearing the old helmet, a lot of this because of the wind noise, but this helmet makes me feel much more confident.

Great value, solid construction, okay ventilation
I bought this to replace my cheapo modular helmet due to safety concerns. This helmet is really great for the price, though I must admit it's my first helmet other than the cheap modular one, so I don't have a lot of experience to judge from.
The straps and fasteners are all really good quality, as far as I can tell.
It fight pretty tightly at first (squished my cheeks quite a bit), but I found out that's normal. It fits pretty nicely now that it's broken in; break-in took a few weeks of use.
The ventilation is just okay. I plan on getting a mirrored visor because on a hot sunny day, it can heat up inside that clear visor!

Another Great Scorpion Helmet
Bought my first xxl exo-400 from a friend that he never used his and after a year I wanted to upgrade. Helmet is great it feels much lighter than my exo-400 and the airflow inside and around the helmet is great. I installed the aero skirt and the shield fogs up a more than I like at slow speeds but makes up for it in the cold morning rides to work. I will probably never buy another helmet besides a scorpion, you just can't get more bang for you buck. I also picked up the helmet on clearance. If it fits you head you will love it

Long term durability lacking
I've had this helmet for about a year now, and it IS a good helmet for the price, but there are a few issues. Like many other riders I've spoken with, this helmet is a little uncomfortable on the forehead. The snap button that secures the excess strap broke after a month on my helmet. The visor ratcheting mechanism has become very very weak causing on opened visor to wobble about. The lower rubber surround piece (the one that runs around the base of the helmet) started coming loose on the sides, and finally fell completely off, leaving me with a very fashionable necklace. Anti-fog ability diminished quickly, and the front fog vent does not provide enough airflow to keep the visor clear. This issue, combined with the loose ratchets not allowing the visor to stay in the slightly vented position, causes a lot of grief on cold mornings. Still a very decent helmet, especially at the new lower pricing, but the sum of defects usually has me cursing it on long rides. Perhaps suitable for weekend warriors or pillion, but not appropriate for 15k mi/yr riders in my humble opinion.
Visor has been absolutely waterproof though! A small plus :)

First helmet but I'm very happy so far.
This is my first helmet and so far I'm very happy. It was pretty tight at first, I got a medium which was recommended for my head size, but after it was broken in it felt great. Lots of ventilation. I ride upright and I can tell it vents better in a more tucked position but its still adequate upright. The visors are a major selling point. Easy on/off, you can ride with a tinted visor all day and keep a clear on your bike, takes 5 seconds to switch when it gets dark...also no fog at all. Very pleased thus far.

Excellent qualité / prix
Idéal comme premier casque, pas trop lourd et un bonne vision et la visière ne s'embu pas lors de pluie.

Solid helmet for the price
Good helmet given its price point. Comfortable, has all the standard features (adjustable vents, etc), and is SNELL approved.
