You got me there 😂😂

You can even remove the scorpion one, it's held by some mild glue

@@Salutyyy Oh really? Good to know.

Revit enters the chat

about 8 minutes for a review? seems about right. but I do agree about this wasn't really a review, more of an advertisement.

I miss the old fortnine reviews of gears. I wish Ryanf9 would do more such videos :/

They did do a shorter ride review of this helmet recently if that's more your jam.

Heyyyyyyy this is Anthony

Are you bitching about 8 minutes

How is it for commuting, everyday light riding? for my naked bike, would it work or is it more for a Super sport?

@@InfectedByZanza Works great on a naked. I ride a 17' Suzuki SV650 and it is super stable at high speeds 70-80 mph. Being lighter than the R2000 reduce neck fatigue too.

Does she have sun visor inside ?

How is it for commuting ?

can a bluetooth communicator be attached bc of the neck liner? looks like there is no space

Are they comfortable than avg corsa

Currently looking at getting either this, or the shoei rf1200

I'm planning to get this but the carbon version

What about air flow? Stability at high speeds? I currently have the exor710 and i own a hayabusa with a double bubble screen and at high speeds that thing jumps around and is not stable at 170-180 mph its not steady.

@@MicMurphy1981 very stable thanks to the air pump system. Before I start speeding I will normally pump as much air as I can to make it as tight as possible for stability. Airflow wise no complaints from me

Shoei to shame? R u sure about that? I can’t see that even being possible not even in a dream

@@Pmason718 Way more comfortable compared to Shoei in my experience

@@Pmason718 yes way more comfy that Shoei. I think the R1 Air has the best interior right now out of all the new helmets.

Ben Vu agree, I got x14 and just bought the Bautista version of the R1 mainly use for tracks but gotta say tho, x14 have better finish and IMO looks little better but is heavier than the R1 too.

Your dreaming, I had this helmet and got rid of it it's extremely noisy and a little uncomfortable but it looks a lot better ,I went back to a Shoei

Yep. Same reason I won't get this helmet. Sucks, because the other features look great.

Lol midget

If you are looking for quiet, Schuberth will always be better, as they are the only company to specifically test for noise levels. The SR2 will definitely be a quieter ride than this helmet. I hope that helps!

You’ll be waiting millions of years my friend. It’s a timeless look.

It comes in clear as well

You have that option in other brands - just prepare to pay a lot more. Can't have your cake and eat it too, mate...

@@joaosoares3719 $400 is in the high side for a helmet and its the price point where other helmets are offering 4 different shell sizes.

I just wish Anthony would review these products again

@@johnjacob688 this is a FIM shell mate, the rest if FIM helmets are $1000

@@InfectedByZanza so far only this helmet is only FIM in size S.

@Massimo Hack I was just confused if the consumer helmets are different than the ones they wear on the track. That's all.

You can still buy it online in carbon

@@troyxhoward I know u can buy the European version and ship it thru the US.

Did you contact Scorpion USA and voice your concerns. The helmet has a five year warranty that would cover these issues and based on what you have stated they would replace it. The have great customer service! I had a cheek pad air bladder go bad on my R2000 Contacted Scorpion and they made it good a sent me a new helmet. Mine was just a year old at the time.

@@DB-so8zc Yeah but I'm not really in a position to send the helmet back because I commute with it. I wouldnt be able to ride for at least 1-2 weeks

Yep. My Scorpion had dried glue on the jaw. it squeeked badly, and fell out after wearing it a day. Sending it back was a pain. I just reglued it. Fine after that. China made... Good shape and features but spotty QC. Maybe best to buy in the store. I was tempted by the 70% off end of season clearance price for $80.

Ordered The Scorpion for my friend on Jan. 7th. 2024 - It's a $549.95 helmet now . . .

I find the Rpha 11 very noisy but great vents if you live somewhere hot.

Hi, I have the same query. Did you buy R1 helmet Size M?

@@sathishmurugachari2099 I happen to have brought an rpha 11 in size S which seems to be the perfect fit

He said 3.3 pounds

@@edwintorres4975 thank you so much

It is a little loud. I wouldn't say terrible though. I rode for more that 400 miles on one trip, mostly highway, and it was loud yes but bearable. I have a stock exhaust on my motorcycle and I can hear it much better when I wear the R1 Air versus my other helmets. If you are looking for a quiet helmet, I would say look elsewhere and look for a touring helmet. Don't get me wrong though, I absolutely love the EXO R1 Air. It is a track and sport riding helmet hands down.

How do you find the Carbon 1400. I sport ride/tour and planned to buy it.

@@kiddcisco i really like my st1400. It's comfortable to wear all day and has held up well for the 2 years I've owned it. It can be a little loud in the wind if you don't have a windshield to sit behind. On my previous naked sport bike I didn't like how loud the helmet was. On my adventure touring bike I love it. Comfortable and light weight. Really depends on the type of riding you do and how sensitive you are to noise. Of course your milage may vary but I don't plan on replacing my scorpion anytime soon

Both are great helmets, it will really come down to your own personal preference of wanting a drop down sun visor or not. And if you check out the size chart on either helmet's product page, your 22" head fits right in a size Small. If you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to our Gear Geeks at 877.792.9455 or CS@revzilla.com. Ride safe, -Pat

Fabio quatarato uses it

@ugar baba I have both Helmets in carbon but the build quality of the xlite is much better, even though the scorpion that I have is the new version ece 22.06, it's heavier than the rs by 100 grams in size large, the liner, cheek pads of the xlite is better and much more comfortable,the exo r1 is a great helmet don't get Me wrong, it's cheaper than the rs and it's the quietest helmet on the market,ventilation is good,u can use a Bluetooth headset, the xlite doesn't have pockets,actually both are great helmets u can't go wrong with any,I think you should do like me!! buy both!!

Thanks for the detailed info , i bought the x-lite ,really great helmet overall like you mentioned ;)

True ahaha

Unfortunately not. The only Pinlock Ready Face Shields they offer for this helmet thus far are Clear and Dk Smoke. www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/scorpion-exo-st1400-exo-r1-air-pinlock-ready-faceshield?sku_id=1771721 www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/scorpion-exo-st1400-pinlock-ready-face-shield?sku_id=1589174

Shoei all the way! I love scorpion and have had 2 of them but quality wise shoei is in another galaxy

Originally it's only ECE 22.05 since the helmet came out before the 22.06 was fully mandated, but wouldn't be surprised if it met the standard pretty easy since the EU counterparts meet FIM which is very similar to the new 22.06.

Snell, dot and ece I suppose

Spurgeon hits the fitment of this video at 1:25 mark and it has an Intermediate Oval internal head-shape so you would likely feel the same tight fit at the temples like you did with the Shoei and AGV.

@@RevZilla okay but for example Arai Defiant is also mentioned like intermediate oval but in my opinion it is round shape compared to shoei or agv. Shoei also fits very different than AGV. AGV K6 make me terrible pressure and pain on the temples but shoei only little pressure so there are difference. Do you think that Scorpion is similar to Shoei?

It's not but the FIM certification is useless in my opinion unless you're riding Superbike or motogp

R1

Amen, I thought that sounded kinda goofy at first but after having it I wouldn't want to go without it

I have both. I love them. Here's what I think about them to help you decide. I wear a size large in both: The RPHA 11 Pro has a smaller profile. When you head check to look behind you, it does not catch wind. It's super smooth. Pretty damn quiet too for a track helmet. Nice interior but the leather on the bottom of the cheek pads will start to peel off after lots of usage, also the leather on the chin strap will start to peel. This helmet is much more narrow than the R1 Air. It has a very tight fit. On long rides it does hurt the top of my head sometimes because of how narrow it is (usually over 2 hour rides it will start to hurt). I raced in 2018 with this helmet. I loved every second of wearing this helmet at the track. It is one, if not the best venting helmets. When you open all the vents, it is amazing. It comes with 2 visors and one pin lock insert. Very light helmet. Accepts blue tooth systems pretty well if you take your time and place everything nicely. The EXO R1 Air has a much bigger profile. The top of the helmet is very pronounced and the chin sticks out quite a bit farther. During head checks, this helmet does catch a little more wind, probably due to the bigger spoiler and taller profile. This helmet is not as quiet as the RPHA 11 pro, but I wouldn't call it loud. I have a stock exhaust on my motorcycle and I can hear it much better when I wear the R1 Air. The interior to me is way nicer than the RPHA 11 Pro. I love the way it feels. There is no leather that will peel off after lots of usage. The chin curtain fits very very nicely. It has much more room inside of the helmet. I can wear this helmet all day and never hurts my head. I love the air fit system. It works wonders when I pump up the bladders and want to ride more aggressively giving me a much tighter fit. When I had a Freecom blue tooth unit on it and I wore a leather A stars jacket, I would find that sometimes the blue tooth unit would hit my shoulder when I turned my head. The jaw line of the R1 Air is much lower than the RPHA 11 Pro. Comes with 2 visors and one pin lock insert. Very light helmet. Overall I like them both the same. I have retired my RPHA 11 pro after 2019. Now I wear the EXO R1 Air and the Arai Corsair X. It comes down to style really. I think both helmets are so cheap that you should get them both!!!!!

Ben Vu I appreciate your response but for my head shape and comfort I’ve always found Shoei to fit me better but I do own a HJC RPHA 11 Pro which I think is a really nice helmet but I barely wear it I honestly bought it bc it really matched my track suit perfectly lol.

I have a EXO 1400 Carbon Air. The air bladders are awesome actually, it ensures the helmet always sits tight. Without it I would assume the helmet would get loose over time.

It is one of the best features you can find in a helmet. Gives you awesome adjust-ability so you can find a better fit (IE find the best size to fit your crown then instead of 1 or 2 options in how snug your cheeks are you have essentially dozens). Second only to the modular padding in the Shoei X-14 IMO (which every helmet should have).

I had a exo 1200 for 5 years and i now have a exo R1 carbon, simply put Scorpion's helmets are the only helmets that i feel well held in. And that's thanks to this air bladder system. I find that other brands only hold my head by my cheek bone and my jaw (Shoei/HJC/AGV), which is a bit uncomfortable and doesn't provides the amount of support i want. This system really is a cheap/light way to ensure a tight/custom fit, and a fit that lasts over time too since you can pump it up once the padding gets loose over time. Anyway great feature.

I have owned the exo r2000 (now discontinued) for 3 years. I use the air bladder feature on all my highway rides. As others have said, over time the helmet breaks in and is no longer super tight like it is when you buy it, but a few pumps and its back to a snug secure fit. I will look at Scorpion first when it is time to replace my current helmet.

I love the air fit. Keeps helmet fitting great always. Bought one 10 years ago and the air bladders just failed. Buying air fit again.

Some people like the fact that a Moto GP rider wears more or less the same helmet. Plus you get all of the aero work done for the perfomances of this rider in Moto GP on this product that you can buy.

It's relevant because Moto GP doesn't just let any helmet manufacture come in. You really have to make a great helmet for it to be approved. If a pro ride wears this helmet, and the FIA allows them to, then that means it is more than safe for us to wear on the road because they are very very fast on the race track, and if they go down and it saves them, then it will save us too.

Old motorsports marketing adage: Win on Sunday, sell on Monday!

Does if you don't want a ticket. Snell or EC only stickers won't count in the cop's book. He is to look for DOT in the US. Law is law. Words count

@@STho205 that's fair enough, it just shouldn't be used to determine if the helmet is actually safe.

This helmet is fantastic btw. I bought it before it was really advertised much and it punches well above its price point. Ad review or not this helmet is stellar.

@@tylertietz7819 is this helmet quiet at highway speeds.

Yeah these aren't really reviews but moreso showcases but I appreciate the fact that they put out videos because stock product photos and manufacturer descriptions aren't usually informative enough. Check out Fortnine or similar for more in-depth gear info, unfortunately the team over there can't really address every product on the market but they do go pretty deep on the ones they feature.

@@illuforce It's pretty quiet, but it's a sports/track helmet. Get the exo 1400 if you want a quiet, touring bucket.

@@illuforce I would say it's not quiet but it's not terrible. I have ridden a lot in my R1 Air.

Which helmets brands are not made in China??
