Scorpion exo 100

Anyone tried this helmet. Someone recommended it to me. It is a half helmet with built in shield. The shield is retractable. Have read quite a few reviews and found nothing negative. Anyone use this helmet? Hard to find some where to try the helmet. Will have to order online. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Have one and bought the wife one I use it all the time has a collar you can snap on for colder weather or use a full face. I like it for hot weather or cruising in the mountains my other is a Nolan 102 that I am thinking about replacing with the new Scorpion 900ex

Thumbs Up

Wife and I both have this helmet. Works great and not to heavy. No complaints at all.
Paid about $109.00 each. Got the blue color. Air vents work well also.

I have had one for probably 3 years. It is a very comfortable helmet. No complaints here.

Scott, I have one of these. Have had it about 3 years I bought an extra liner ($16, I think). I wash one and wear the other, when it gets dirty I just swap them out, the shield is easy to change also.

Thanks everyone for the input. Picked up one today. Once I tried it on I was sold. The way it feels when I put it on made me think I would get a lot more protection than any half helmet I own. Have tried the mods aand full face and I just cant get comfortable with them. I know they are good protection but half helmet is as far as im willing to go. Think im eeally going to like this one. Got it for 109. Could have gotten the pink one for 69. My wife said it looked good on me but it clashed with the bike.

I have one but this summer we bought a pair of AFX FX-200 that have two shields and I really prefer it to the EXO 100. I might change my mind come cooler weather.

Late in the game as usual but I have one, too. It's a bit heavy and not terribly aerodynamic (plus it makes you look like mushroom). As I'm riding a bit more these days, I'll buy a modular this winter. Probably either a Nolan or EXO 900.

Been swearing the exo 100 for at least a month now. Love it. Gives me a good sense of protection. I have not been able to find a mod or full face I can stand. Makes me feel like I'm inside. What's the point of that?
