Scorpion EXO-R420 Helmet Review
www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/s...
Scorpion’s Snell/DOT-approved budget blaster is back and scoring higher than ever. The new vent configuration improves airflow and style. The swept polycarbonate shells and color options have also seen updates. At the face shield, Scorpion’s Ellip-Tec II ensures a snug seal.Inside, removable and washable KwikWick II anti-microbial fabric removes excess moisture and regulates temperature.

Highly recommend!!! NO CONCUSSION SYMPTOMS OR LOSS OF CONSCIOUSNESS! I had the Exo R410 with very few first layer paint chips after I was hit going 80km/hr by a car who cut me off... flying over his windshield (that my helmet smashed) and then landing on the pavement which was a soft flat on my back landing (in other words a miracle). The back spoiler of the helmet has wear to the bottom from resting on the pavement I would assume. ***** Even though the medics didn't notice the emergency tab until I told them, the cheek pads came out without interfering with C-spine protocols! I did loose the visor somewhere in the chaos though. ***** The 410 saved my life, so I would deff choose the 420 as my next helmet !

Great review. I bought a new EXO R420 earlier this year. I like it, but I don't love it. It's louder inside than my old EXO 410 and the ventilation is just okay. It does seem like a more expensive helmet than it is and it certainly looks great. My one complaint is the latch tab needs a slightly larger cutout underneath it, because it's difficult to push that tab up with a gloved finger. If you're looking at new helmets, try them in combination with your gloves. See if you can easily operate the shield and vents with your gloves on. Otherwise this is a great bargain lid.

I don't get the R410 being called "round" as information on Cycle Gear label it as intermediate oval, and I'm an intermediate oval and the R410 fits GREAT. If the R420 was any more oval than that I'm pretty sure it won't fit me. I've had a chance to look at the R420, but not try one on, and I noticed the visor lock is very "latchy". it takes some force to lock, and the lever may not be the easiest to activate to unlock it with gloves on. And keep in mind with the new locking mechanism if you close the visor to seal it it MUST be locked. Unlike the R410 which could be locked AFTER fully closed. I appreciate the re-design of the visor lock though, as the little plastic lever for my R410 broke on me while I was trying to prop open the visor. Such items involving safety should be kept simple, yet easy to operate, which is the concern with many visor lock systems. I appreciate the easier to operate top vent, as the R410 vents were hard to feel, and there was a bit of "did I close it? let me open then close it again to double check." The display model I looked at for the R420 had a broken rear spoiler, with no visible damage markings from impact. That will be something to inspect when you get yours. That might be a weak point in cases of accidental helmet drops or just banging the helmet against objects.

Revzilla, already bought all my gear on your website. Still one thing to go: helmet. I've seen you have listed the Scorpion R420 at 150$ and the RPHA 11 at ~400$. Now, I've seen your videos. You depict both helmets as super good, super safe and super air-vented. Mind explaining why the RPHA is almost THREE TIMES the price the Scorpion? I know the Scorpion doesn't come with Pinlock nor tinted visor so it's rather a 200$ vs 400$ comparison, but even then, what's the deal exactly with the RPHA doubling the price?
@RevZilla
@RevZilla 5 жыл бұрын
The EXO-R420 uses a more affordable polycarbonate shell, while the RPHA 11 Pro uses a nicer, lighter carbon/aramid/fiberglass composite shell. The HJC also offers a lot more ventilation and more shell sizes. If you just want a good all-around helmet, go with the Scorpion. If you really need a lot of ventilation or really need a lighter helmet, well then it might be worth the extra cost for some people. -DrewZilla

Plus the glasses fitment of the scorpion was a huge winner for me.

If it gives you a headache after only 10 min, it's either the wrong size, the wrong shape, or both. Before trying XL, try removing the cheek pads from the helmet, in order to focus on how the helmet padding fits around the crown of the head. If it feels good around the crown without the cheek pads, then consider getting thinner cheek pads. If it's too tight around the crown, then consider an XL helmet. -DrewZilla

It really depends on your specific head shape, but I would try to fit into the medium if you can. Size medium is still in the smaller of the two shell sizes, so you'd get a more compact helmet overall with size medium. If you do need to go up to size large, the outside of the helmet will be a bit bigger, but it's still a pretty streamlined helmet in the larger shell. -DrewZilla

The R-420 will suit you just fine and has been our beginner helmet of choice for a few years in our Gear Guides. The EXO R1 Air Helmet is great too, but has more track-level performance that will likely go to waste in your early years of riding.

I’ve had this helmet for a while now and I never could for the life of me figure out how to chin mount a GoPro to it. Has anybody found a way for it to work?
@RevZilla
@RevZilla 5 жыл бұрын
Rather than mounting straight in the middle of the chin bar, we like to use a standard side mount. We would mount the base halfway between the center of the chin bar and side of the helmet then use GoPro's little hinged connectors to position the camera closer to the centerline of the helmet. -DrewZilla

DrewZilla... according to Lidpicker, ( www.lidpicker.com/free-data ) the new R420 shell shape is longer-oval from an intermediate. The bar graph indicates the shell shape to be roughly the same as an HJC Rpha 70 ST. Can you verify this? I'm the unfortunate head shape that's longer than intermediate oval.
@RevZilla
@RevZilla 5 жыл бұрын
@@exothermal.sprocket Yes it is pretty accurate. Whereas the R410 was on the rounder side, the R420 is on the slightly longer/narrower side. It's not as long/narrow as an Icon Airmada or Airframe Pro, which for example are too long/narrow for me. However, I can comfortably wear both the RPHA 70 ST and the EXO-R420.

It's not higher, they are completely different views on helmet safety. Snell leans more towards puncture resistance while ece leans more to abrasion resistance. However Ece is getting pulled by the FIM standard so eventually it's gonna be the safer standard if not already

You may want to see if you have a good seal with the face shield on the right side. Since the vents are all centered on the helmet, that's the only thing I can think of. Even with vents closed, you still might get a tiny bit of whistling depending on your riding position and how air flows over your bike. -DrewZilla
