🦂 Scorpion R420 Matte Black Helmet - Medium Size Review

Great helmet, good fit. The only downside is the top vents let in very little air unless your head is tilted - it's like a half turn, so if you're on a cruiser the air is almost useless. In addition, a lot of air comes out of the ventilation opening in the chin.

Nice helmet, love how I look in it! The only thing I don't like is the wind noise. My old helmet was the Icon Dark Alliance helmet. Silence on the highway. However, this one lets in quite a bit of noise once I'm on the freeway.

I've bought back and forth but I'm glad I did. The helmet fits well, is comfortable and looks good. Mine didn't come with a smoke screen (I don't think they do) and I had to buy one separately. It took a while to find, but the smoke screen really ties everything together.

This is absolutely one of the best looking helmets that won't break the bank and is SNELL certified. Most helmets in this price range are only DOT approved and will make you look like an idiot, but this helmet looks good out of the box and is quite comfortable. I bought the Dark Smoked visor which makes this helmet even better.

I like this helmet. For the price, this helmet can't be beat. Snell 2015 certified, cutouts for Bluetooth speakers behind the padding and a very comfortable helmet. I was looking for a riding helmet at a good price, at least ECE or Snell certified, not just a point. And this helmet tops that. For $150, you get everything you could possibly need, especially on a budget. The Scorpion is a good helmet that is initially snug but becomes very comfortable as you wear it. The cheek pads are easy to…

Excellent helmet. I like that it suits an oval head shape like mine but it also looks very skinny because I'm medium height so also a smaller height. So there is no mushroom head here. And while it doesn't have any vents, it's very comfortable, and the chin curtain hopefully keeps bees out. I tried desperately to fog up the face shield, but my attempts were in vain. Every helmet I've ever had fogged up, but not this one. That's incredible! The helmet is quiet in comparison, but that's…

Oh my god. Finally. I'm not sure if I have a medium oval or a long oval (probably the latter), but I do know that my head size barely exceeds the maximum size of most small helmet sizes - around 22 inches. I read such great reviews here and even mentioned the forum that 420 works well for long ovals. To my knowledge, that doesn't mean it doesn't work for other head shapes as well. A Revain buyer wrote that the helmet is a medium size which is the main reason I bought it. I feel enough pressure…

For the money this helmet gives me safety and comfort. This is by no means a riding helmet, but for general road use and maybe track use (although it's not my current cup of tea, it has a 2015 Snell rating) it fits very well. The two vents provide pretty good ventilation, but the mouth vent does most of the work as the top vent requires a larger pleat position to let in some air. Removable cheek pads (with emergency pull tabs!) in combination with a removable liner make this helmet very easy to
