My new Helmet: Scorpion EXO-700 Matte White
 
Moving from a Shoei RF1000 to the Scorpion EXO 700. The RF1000 would fog up as soon as the temperature dropped below 65 degrees. I will get my first ride in with the helmet tomorrow. Hopefully it will not fog up like the shoei.

Got the EXO 700 for $135 shipped off Ebay and bought the everclear silver mirror visor and aero skirt from STG for $65 shipped.

My EXO-700 never fogs. :dthumb:

Sixxxxer 01-09-2009 12:40 AM

Shit my EXO 400 Never fogs...and I BREATH right into the bitch...Its a Great Lid

derf 01-09-2009 01:39 AM

I have noticed some very slight fogging on very cold days (bellow freezing), and only when I'm stopped, but it goes away as soon as I stop blowing or start moving

marko138 01-09-2009 09:00 AM

Nice lid. I wanna get white/grey leathers and boots.

WARputer 01-09-2009 09:05 AM

I have the matte black EXO 700 & love it. It's only fogged up a few times......way better than the HJC I used to have.

BICH 01-09-2009 09:25 AM

Nice!

how do scorpions rate in the safety department? i have seen a bunch lately, and they look pretty good.

well i have personally not crash tested a exo helmet but a lotta people of the gixxer forum who have first hand experience crashing in these helmets rate it very well.

My only complaint so far is that it is really loud

Great looking lid, if that came in a red/black I would consider it when ever I need a new one.

I agree it is Loud...Compared to my Suomy.

But I love the lid and it has yet to fog on me...My suomy fogged like a bitch

Which Suomy? I've never owned a Suomy that fogged. And my current Suomy Vandal has to be the loudest fucking helmet on the planet.

jalaan1 01-10-2009 04:58 PM

not a 700 but my exo400 hasn't fogged yet,
and as far as the noise, nuthin a pair of ear plugs won't fix.

Suomy Ventura...It was my First Lid.

I much prefer the Scorpion Over the Suomy...It fits WAY Better, and The visor is easier to take off when I switch out the Tinted/Clear

My last lid was a Ventura. I loved it. My only complaint was the shield would fly open at high speeds....but it damn sure didn't fog.

I think that some AMA racer dude is wearing a Scorpion nowadays.

Also, why am I not surprised that many people on the Gixxer forum reporting on crashes?

Amorok 01-12-2009 04:52 PM

I wear a scorpion EXO 700 chameleon. Mine fogs but I live in an extreme humidity environment. There is a red and black version of several graphics options. Try looking at the site.

I've never been much for it... but after seeing that lid... it's pretty sick. I could see myself going that route one day.
