Review on ScorpionEXO EXO-AT950 Outrigger Helmet W/Electric Shield (White/Grey - Small) by Fred Griffin

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great features for the money! BUT.

This helmet offers amazing value for money. It's clear that Scorpion put a lot of thought into the design. I love the ability to raise the entire front end. He doesn't sleep either. Pulling it down takes effort, and it's important to make sure it's safe before heading down the road. The fold-down visor is very useful and the yellow filters shine well. It's also easy to swap out the tinted lens for summer rides. Air filtration is good, although I haven't had enough heat yet to see if that makes a difference. Surprised how well the visor flies in the wind. I don't feel like it's being pushed down or pulled up. Two very important disadvantages. One of them concerns security. The in-lens heating element takes up a lot of space under and above the lens itself! I'll get rid of it immediately. I'd rather open my goggles and vents when it's fogging up on a chilly day than lose sight. And secondly, this problem is exacerbated by the fact that the helmet slides onto my chest, so to speak. It can only be the shape of "my" head. Add to this a bike that requires a sporty fit and this helmet will not be a good option. I have an R320 and the large fits me perfectly, although my measurements show I should be medium. I thought this one would do the same. It's tighter. Very, very little. I would suggest going up a size after measuring your head and comparing to the chart. Four stars! Change the lens for a new and solid five!
