I like 4, 5, 6 the best. I think I might get 4 or 6 since they have more color.

I like the graphics on 2,3,6 & 7... the nod goes to #2 cause its only $200.
All those are DOT & Snell Approved... the Shoie will be slightly lighter, but the Scorpion have a more functional breath guard.
Fit is the most important aspect of choosing a helmet, if it doesn't fit right it may cause more harm than protection.
And now days, you don't need an Arai or Shoie Race Replica to get features such as removable & washable internals...
I have tried the Scorpion EXO-700 (1 & 2) the Shoei XR-11 & RF-1000, Arai Corsair XR7, KBC VR2, and the Suomy Spec 1R.
The Scorpion EXO-700 & Arai Corsair where similar in fit, I concluded that they fit my head shape best.
The KBC-VR2 was similar to the EXO-700 & Arai corsair in fit, with a bit less padding on the forehead area. I settle on these due to better selection of graphics over the EXO-700, good fit & value.
The Shoie fit pretty good, but they were either too loose or too tight, so comfort detered me from choosing one... not to mention these are expensive.
The Suomy felt like I have empty voids around my ears... didn't like fit although they had the best graphics... and most expensive too.
In the end, for the Price of the Arai Corsair I was considering I got 3 KBC VR2.
I can't stress the importance of Fit... as for safety, they are all SNELL approved, and that has been scientifically proven to be more hazardous to our head since that makes the outer shell so hard all the impact is transfered to our brain. SNELL is more of a marketing tool than anything...
