Default Helmet Close out...

For those that like the EXO-400 from scorpion you are in luck.

They have discontinued the Warhawk design and it is on sale for 104.99
I found them here Scorpion EXO-400 Warhawk Motorcycle Helmet :: New Enough Motorcycle Apparel
And ordered one...

If you like the fit of the Arai Quantum & XR-7, you'll like the fit of the EXO-400 the same... I wear a medium in the arai and the Scorpions run small so I wear a large...

Killer deal.

Oh yeah, George don't bitch at me... I'll be ordering another Scorpion from you soon, The Tsunami.

In case you are wondering... George is at SKyPowersports in Hudson, and can also get Scorpion lids now. George is very cool, def stop by and see him...

how good is the air flow in the helmet?
how are they in a general helmet?

i have a kbc (i will never buy them again) and when im on the interstate or on a fast road... to much air gets through the sides of the visor and dry up my contacts really bad... im looking for a new helmet but i want one that doesnt circulate (sp??) air in my eyes.

I love these helmets. I have an exo-400 dog fight. They have the shape and feel of a much higher end helmet. They do run a tad on the small side though....I got a small and it's snug.

I love my exo 400 octane. The customer service is great. My friend dropped my helmet and the faceshield wouldn't stay on. So i called customer service and they sent out all new hardware for it no questions asked just took my address and it was here in a week.

+1 to great customer service. I got a mirrored shield as well, started to peel a little on an edge. I contacted them and they sent me a new one, no questions, without even having to send the old one back.

The ONLY thing I'm not overly fond of is the breath/nose deflector piece in the helmet which likes to pop out. Wish they would have secured it better or even permenantly secured it in there.
