    I've been using Scorpion EXO -700s for years and like the fit. They are out of production, and the R2000 doesn't look like its going to be released in time for my first race this season. Does anyone have a recommendation for a helmet that fits like the 700 and doesn't cost a fortune? I would like to keep it under $400.

    The R410 should be out before the R2000; we're Scorpion dealers and they tell me that the 410 is going to be a great fit for all most all head shapes and sizes. As soon as I get our demo in, I'll post up our findings.

    Does anyone use the Bell Vortex or RS-1? Thoughts?

    I've got a Star and have used both the RS-1 & Vortex. I'm still sporting a EXO-750, but my next helmet(s) will probably be RS-1's or Star that still have a good date code once STG puts them on sale/closeout...

    RS-1 is a fantastic helmet. Call me, I have WERA specials on them.

    I like the 700 also. I've been told the 750 is very simular to the 700, with the 750 have inflatable check pads and the internal sun visor. I am eyeing the 400, but they are also out of, or going out of production.

    Exo 750 is a great helmet but runs really really small. My 2xl fits like a large and I cannot wear it.

    Try a NEXX. Just a hair over $400

    Does the 750 fit differently than the 700?

    This is my week to look for stuff for my daughter's boyfriend.
    He's buying a helmet and looking at Icon Variance.
    Any advice? Anybody here have any good deals?
    I'd rather direct him to someone here for his business, if possible.

    The new HJC fits quite nice and super light.
