The exo r710 is the 2nd scorpion helmet I have owned. I love the brand. They always seem to fit me really well. I recently had an accident where I was clipped and landed on my shoulder and slid on my head. The helmet did its job. I will be replacing it with another r710 or I might go to the r2000. I haven't decided which will suit my needs best yet.

I've been through a few helmets and wanted something that'd be quieter and more aerodynamic on the highway than my old Biltwell Gringo S, but didn't want to spring for the pricier Japanese or Euro stuff. This helmet is a fantastic value for the price. Unlike some of Scorpion's other products, it fits true to size; I wear a L in this as I have in every other brand of helmet I've tried. It's comfortable and I noticed the high build quality right away; it has more of a "premium" feel to it than I expected.

If you're concerned about wind noise and buffeting like I was, this is probably about as good as it gets at this price point. I'd just wear earplugs if on the interstate for any length of time with any helmet, but short urban expressway runs are much quieter and more pleasant than in my old lid, and it doesn't catch wind like a sail when doing a head check the way some helmets do. My only tiny gripe with this helmet is that I wish the visor were a little more open when in "city" mode (which is still a great feature.)

Helmets from the premium Japanese or Euro manufacturers are probably quieter, lighter and more aero, but they're also twice as expensive or more (and not necessarily any safer!). If you're on a budget, this is a pretty ideal balance between quality and affordability.

This helmet fit my head a little snugly initially and broke in to be very comfortable, but tight to my head. The air vents block air when closed and let a good amount in when open. I ride a CBR250R, so I'm at what I think people call a 3/4 upright position, certainly not a full tuck but not lounging like those cruiser riders ;). Sometimes I ride completely upright, and occasionally at as much of a tuck as the bike allows. In all of these conditions the noise and airflow are roughly the same. I followed the sizing guide from Revzilla and the sizing chart seemed spot on.

I bought the white helmet. It gets noticed. I don't seem to get pulled out in front of any more frequently than I do in my car. I often see the cagers notice me. My buddy saw me and my helmet on the highway one day by happenstance, and said he saw it like a white beacon from at least a mile away. That's some visibility.

Even on the coldest mornings at about 20f and below with the warmest breath, the screen only marginally fogs up at stops. Above that temperature it pretty much never fogs at all and never while moving. It's warm in cold weather with the vents closed and a balaclava on, and comfortably cool with the vents open in hot weather. There's a neat 'visor crack' feature that allows you to lock the shield with a small opening at the bottom so you can safely get additional air when barely moving, too.

This is my first 'real' helmet, so I don't have much to compare it to, but when I'm ready to replace it I'll look to Scorpion first. BTW, that silver 'S' logo on the front can be cut off with a hobby/x-acto blade and the remaining adhesive can be removed with the warm, wet towel cleaning method.

Helmet looks great and is pretty dang comfy. I was a little nervous at first because it fit tighter than I liked, but it broke in very quickly.

My complaints are that the Bluetooth speaker cut outs are too small for my Sena SMH10R. I had to cut out a small area of the foam to accommodate.

The other issue (and most annoying) are that the cheek pads come unsnapped way too easily when removing the helmet. This wasn't really the case until after I removed them to install my Bluetooth. I don't understand the problem because the clips are not damaged. To fix the problem, I press up onto the bottom of the cheek pads with my thumbs when removing the helmet. If it gets worse, I'll have to check on getting it warrantied.

Other than that, great helmet.

I purchased this helmet because I wanted something affordable (<$200) and safe. This helmet is both DOT and Snell certified which is what attracted me to it. I haven't had a serious crash yet thankfully but this helmet should protect me well in the event that things go awry.

Wind noise is ok, but it can get pretty noisy at highway speeds. I always wear ear plugs though and that helps bring the noise down.

Ventilation is ok but on hot days with all the vents open it can feel like you need some more to cool down. The weight isn't bad either: I have not had neck cramps yet and I have gone on 3-4 hour long rides. My butt always gets sore before my neck ever does so that's a plus for this helmet.

This helmet also easily fits my rectangular framed glasses. Thick rimmed hipster glasses may have some fitment trouble but I doubt it. My frames are average sized and they go in no problem.

Sizing seems to match what is listed online. I picked my helmet blind based off of Revzilla's sizing chart and had no issues with fitment.

Finally the helmet looks good. I wasn't a fan of the stupid chrome "S" on the front but that's just adhered with double stick foam tape so it easily comes off with some goo gone and dental floss.

Overall if you're a newbie or on a budget then this is a good safe helmet choice.

I have always used Arai's, however I needed another helmet and was financially unable to replace. So I needed a new helmet at a cost and quality level. The EXO-710 lives up to that and exceeds expectations.

I recently purchased a Vespa and knew I wanted a full face helmet based on how much safer they are than a 3/4 helmet. I live in New Orleans, a humid, hot climate so I knew having a well-ventilated helmed would be important. After chatting with a Repzilla rep I decided on this Scorpion. I've worn a few times so far and it's lightweight, fits well and is comfortable. I like that I can control the airflow with the additional vents and the silver cover matches my scooter perfectly.

I did a ridiculous amount of research and a lot of helmet shopping and trying on before buying this helmet. I have a narrow to neutral shaped head and the Scorpion large is exactly my right circumference. I also run much hotter than the average person so besides fit, air flow was critical for me. I ride a vespa and also wanted to customize the helmet graphics with reflective tape and a Vespa sticker, so the helmet needed to be Vespa style and not motorcycle style. This helmet is perfect for me in all of those ways. Plus its affordable and have some great extra little features. Love it!

After doing some extensive research, reading reviews and watching videos, I found the Scorpion EXO 710. What first attracted me to the helmet was the design. Very sleek and kind of mean looking. It is lightweight so I can wear this for several hours without my neck muscles being stressed. I like that I can swap visors easily, I ride mostly in the day so I attached the tinted visor within seconds. The biggest con I have is the wind noise. I have been adjusting vents to achieve the optimal wind noise to cooling factor but no matter what I try it is still somewhat loud. The other function I am getting used to are the cheek pads. They really push on the cheeks and it takes a little squeezing or maneuvering to get the right comfort. The rest of the helmet fits like a glove and to be fair, I am used to riding with an open faced helmet versus the street style so it could be me more than the padding itself. I really like this choice and recommend it to others who are looking for a lightweight, good fit, and affordable helmet.

This is my second Scorpion helmet (purchased the matte black, size XL). I upgraded from the EXO-1000. I have to say, the R710 is a lot roomier on the inside compared to the old Scorpion. I inserted my Sena SMH10 speakers into the speaker pockets, but they don't fit correctly (because the speakers aren't perfectly round where the wiring connects). If that was the only issue, I would've been relatively happy with the purchase. Alas, it is not.

After 100+ miles wearing this helmet, I wish I could return it. The visor is sticky - it's remarkably difficult to open or close - whenever it's not positioned somewhere in between. And when the visor is down, it still doesn't create a great seal.

Which brings me to my next point. This helmet is just too GD loud. Even with all of the vents closed, wind noise was audible over 30 mph. Over 45mph and you'll get this constant whistling that only gets louder the faster you go. Open the vents and it's almost like you're standing directly behind a jet engine. And yes, I always ride with ear plugs!

In my old EXO-1000, whenever I picked up a call into my Sena communicator, no one realized I was talking to them whilst on two wheels. Not so with this helmet. "WHAT?" or "WHERE ARE YOU?" are the things people frequently ask when I talk to them via the Sena unit.

I bought this helmet (with a dark smoke shield) for that BAMF murdered out look. I love that the solid matte design has no logos or graphics of any kind. And taking the Scorpion "S" off of the front is easy. I sacrificed looks for peace and quiet. I'm willing to put up with it, but I wish I had gone with a different brand. This will be my last Scorpion helmet.
