Couple of guys I ride with have them and LOVE them. They are much easier to use the shield on than some other helmet companies similar types. Also you can exchange the shield from say a CLEAR to a Yellow or smoke lens in about 30 seconds. Seen it done!!!

I am planning on buying one as I like the look and the fit and functionality of them.

My pal has one, he got it last summer and loves it.

Got 2 of them one for me one for the little lady there was a motorcycle shop going out of business last fall and got them for $87 a piece.

I have one. It is a good helmet. It feels and looks big but is a pretty god fit for my head. I like the drop down visor for unexpected rain and extra eye protection when needed. Need to wear ear plugs to protect from the wind noise.

I have a full face Scorpion as well....my favorite but gets warm above 65. It is also a hassle to fill up or take a drink at breaks.

Yup I have had one for a full season and love it. It's probably the best I have had.

I bought one for function but returned it because I felt like the little character on the jetsons yrs ago. So yes it looks large on your head. IMPO.

My son and I both use one and are very happy with them. Comfortable and relatively light.

I have one also, but have to agree with Flavor, it does make me look cartoonish. Maybe thats why everyone smiles when they see me?
It does work well, I tend to keep the neck curtain in, but it's easy to get out if it's too warm. And the visor works well.

I've had one for a couple of years. It's probably the helmet I wear most often. It IS the most comfortable helmet I own.
