Scorpion EXO-T510 Helmet Review
www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sc...
The Scorpion EXO-T510 Helmet is a helmet that comes in with an entry-level price point, and a punch that is way out of its price range. In typical Scorpion fashion, the EXO-T510 is far more advanced than its price would indicate and is without question one of the most value-packed options on the market. From the premium polycarb shell that has been engineered to reduce weight and adeptly disperse the forces of impact around the skull in the event of an impact, the feature-rich T510 is going to be a staple of the industry for years to come. Additional features that showcase the high bang-for-your buck factor can be seen in the SpeedView internal sun visor, EverClear no fog faceshield, and the AirFit internal liner adjustment system that allows for a more custom fitment that can be altered on the fly.

+Seadogdoc: Don't be concerned. Many helmet cheek pads have the plastic tab that helps hold the pad in. For the speaker wires, you just route the wires along the inside of the shell gasket back to where the cheek EPS meets the EPS that covers the base of the skull. That's about where the cheek pad plastic tab ends, so there's no interference when you then route the left side speaker to the left speaker pocket. For the right speaker wire, you can route it around the back of the neck or over the head between the EPS and the padded head liner to get to the right speaker pocket. Hope this makes sense! -DrewZilla

Was waiting for this to come out... But then i found an R410 Hi-viz Airline for $99. Kind of glad i jumped the gun as the price point for the pre order exceeds some of Scorpions current advanced options around the web. Still it's a beautiful helmet and i don't think any other company comes close to the ammount of features you get with Scorpion for the price point.

No ECE rating is not a nitpick. DOT is a lowest common denominator that depends on self-certification. Since one never finds a SNELL rating on an internal sun visor helmet, ECE and Sharp ratings are really important distinguishing factors.

Hey RevZilla! I just found your channel/website, and I'm a big fan. I'll get it out of the way, I'm a greenhorn to motorcycles, getting gear for the MSL course, and am stuck between the Scorpion EXO-T510 and the R-410. I like the look of the 410, but I like the intake vent ports a lot better on the 510, and the tinted visor is an extra perk. That being said, I'm seeing more negative views on the 510 than the 410. Any thoughts between the two?

@RevZilla 8 жыл бұрын

I actually really like the EXO-T510 and its drop-down sun visor. The advantage of the EXO-R410 is that it's Snell-rated and less expensive, but then you don't get the sun visor. If you want a sun visor, I do recommend the EXO-T510. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/scorpion-exo-t510-helmets

Hey guys, any chance there is a new version of this helmet? I just bought the Exo 510 air today from a local shop in my area, there is no double d-ring (its the seat-belt like type), there is a build in pinlock, a build in headphones spot in the inside of the shell, and the manuals says ECE approved, not DOT. other than that, the shell looks pretty much the same.

@RevZilla 5 жыл бұрын

It's slightly quieter than average but not the quietest. The vents do work pretty well in hot weather while also closing off enough to not feel cold in winter and not drip in the rain. Additionally, the face shield uses a spring-loaded mechanism to create a good seal, so it does a good job of keeping rain out. -DrewZilla

@RevZilla 5 жыл бұрын

All three helmets are good for commuting. However, for everyday comfort features, I like the Scorpion. The sun visor mechanism for the HJC is a bit too loud, and the AGV can fog up more easily. For me, the Scorpion does everything just right. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/scorpion-exo-t510-helmets

@madeleinegillett5892 5 жыл бұрын

Can confirm for the most part. I've owned a k3 SV and I'm now on a exo 510 and the Scorpion is a lot more commuter friendly, especially when it comes to pinlock. The pinlock on my agv didn't work all too well because it wouldn't seal properly so I'd get fog spots everywhere. The scorpion visor has a dedicated indent to allow the pinlock to fit snug and work perfectly. The scorpion is also a more forgiving shape if you wanna fit a camera or Bluetooth headset because the AGV is concave and pointy

+RevZilla wizards, I watched Anthony talk me into this lid, and just barely ordered this helmet from you guys, and made my choice between the R710 and T1200 from the Scorpion line. I ride a V-Star 950 tourer, and wanted a helmet better suited for touring. With Scorpion, is there a big distinction or noticeable difference between their racing and touring helmets, when in the full upright position? Also, I felt that the extra $100 for a slightly lighter helmet and the KwikWick lll liner wasn't worth the extra money, with my ramen noodles, college lifestyle budget. In short, between the T510, T1200, and the R710, is this one a wise choice? Would you recommend any other ones based off of my previous concerns? Thanks!

@RevZilla 8 жыл бұрын

+Kyle K. I think Scorpion provides some of the best bang for the buck on the market, so that being said, if you want the internal sun visor but want to save a bit of money, the EXO-T510 is the way to go. It works well in both 3/4 and upright riding positions. If you don't need the sun visor, then you can get the EXO-R710 with its fiberglass shell for about the same money. It will also work quite well in an upright riding position, so there's no need to worry there. I don't think you need to spend more for the EXO-T1200, nor would I recommend anything else. The 710 and 510 are my favorite helmets around $200. -DrewZilla

BTW front vent look way better on old model (in black matt of course like in this new model)
