Been rocking the white EXO R1 for about ten months. This is a very nice lid! Great review!

Thanks for the video, just purchased one from you guys 🤙🏼

Great video! Love that Scorpion & hoping to buy that one next to add to my collection

Thanks telling more about Scorpion Exo R1 Air!

This helmet is awesome it looks great and is pretty light thank you for the great reviews you put on your channel. I wear a size large and it was a little to tight even after i broke it in but i got the thinner cheek pads and it fit perfect . My cardo freecom 4+ fit great and was easy to put in. I love this helmet and would recommend it to anyone it is a great value for the money. I think you have the best reviews of gear on youtube and watch a lot of your reviews before i get any new gear next i am getting he rst tractech evo 111 sport boots. thank you again.

Great review! I have this helmet here in Sweden. I can 💯% recommend it 👍

Love the way you review its real without all the sugar coating you see everywhere else.... any chance you could weight in on bike protection? Maybe a video or something i mean womet tech, shogun, woodcraft whats good vs whats junk on frame sliders loved the video on stands its why i have a putbull now

Had no idea a DOT/ECE version is coming 👍. While watching this video I got an email that my gloss carbon R1 (along with purple mirror visor) is coming from the Netherlands. I got it for a killer deal...Super bang for the buck helmet, crazy lightweight, and premium quality. Can’t wait! 😎

Love the R1 Air..very versatile helmet and it could compete with my x14. I wouldn’t mind having ECE over SNELL or DOT..one of the reason I didn’t by another RPHA11 carbon cause it’s only DOT. Great review my Guy!!

I like this one I was gonna save and get the Aria Corsair but I might just grab this!

I'll add that I have the exo 1400 and it looks almost identical to this one.. I absolutely love everything about the helmet and wouldn't want any other

got the Fabio one last Nov looking forward to this riding season to test it out, also have the X14 Marquez from 2016. and yes it was nice to not pay 1K :P

I just got the gloss version looks perfect 👽

I love my 2 Scorpion helmets (Exo-R1 air carbon and Exo 1400 air carbon), perfect fit, they are my favorites helmets with my Roof Ro200 carbon (lighter than Scorpion but a bit more expensive).

It's hard to overstate how great it is to have a tinted visor And pinlock included. I'm pretty sure I spent over $100 just getting a tinted visor and pinlock for my RPHA 70.

Look sick!!!

Thanks for the in-depth review. I’ve been researching this helmet for a few months and this review made me pull the trigger. Although, I didn’t end up buying the carbon, I decided to get the fiberglass. The helmet is light and very comfortable but I’ve gotta say it’s extremely loud. It’s actually louder than my biltwell lanesplitter which is known to be a very loud helmet. Is there something I’m missing here? I love the aesthetics of this helmet and maybe it’s a one off, but what can I check to make sure everything is tight and not “leaking” which might cause the extreme noise? Thanks!

Thank you for the review on the Scorpion EXO R1Air..Purchased one the other day and wanted to know more about comm. system compatibility. Can I use the clamp from the Sena or Cardo on the helmet, or do I have to use an exterior 3m sticker to mount a comm. system?

In your opinion is the carbon version worth getting over the regular one when choosing between the two. Is the bigger price of the carbon worth paying or not ?

This is my dream helmet

Hey Brian. Great review! I'm getting back into riding. Right now, I have an older EXO R420, which fits my head perfectly. Should I expect the same fit with the newer line?

Nice lid! 👍😎🇦🇺 What Bluetooth intercom/music brand do you use and or sell the most? I’m looking at buying one, just can’t decide.

It's insanely humid in summer and I often get caught in heavy rain commuting 30-55 min each way depending on the day, near Daytona Beach Florida. No windscreen. What can you guys recommend in the $500-$600 area for my situation? I like k6, rf1400 and this scorpion, as well as arai defender. K6 upper vents have ruled it out though, 2 holes open to the sky. Any help is appreciated. Van, love your vids brother! I appreciate any input you and staff may have.

Brian, Love the videos. I Just bought a bagger and I’m looking for the Absolute Best venting helmet? Have the Shoei neotec2 and I feel NO air 🥵

Brian, can u help me understand what shell construction Scorpion actually uses in this specific carbon version? Living in Sweden the swedish retailer says this model is a carbon TCT, on another german website its a TCT ultra, on the american manufacturers site it's a TCT-u 3K carbon fiber shell. I understand that different regions demands different safety achievements to reach the DOT, ECE standard and soo on, but what shell is it in the US vs EU? Also, what's being expressed in the video as a "full 3k carbon shell", is it a 100% pure carbon shell, or is it a TCT-ultra with a sandwich construction with just carbon layers on the outside/inside with other aramids and glasfiber layers in between? Really confusing for a customer and a owner. Would like to add that your high quality videos are being watched outside the states ;) Keep up the awesome work!

Great Helmet review, guys! Love watching your videos. Would you be able to list down the differences between this EXO R1 Carbon helmet and Scorpions' own EXO-ST1400 Carbon helmet? I've been looking to buy one of these two, and apart from the obvious differences in price, I haven't come up with enough differences between the two to justify the added cost of the R1. Any advice will be useful. Keep on the good work.

That helmet looks awesome but with a golden visor it will look amazing

The RPHA 11 fits perfect for me in size L, should I take size L for scorpion too ? Im deciding between the RPHA 11 and the Exo R1 and im looking towards the exo r1 because of the visor problem HJC has with the rpha models... Great video!

So the ece version hasn't been released yet is what you're saying? Do you have an estimated time when I could pick one up? I ride a corsair x but been looking for something with updated styling and aerodynamics.

I currently have/had an ST-1400 Carbon for 2 years and I am considering upgrading/buying a new helmet... Would you say the R1 Carbon Air is worth the upgrade or should I wait another year or two? There is a $150 price difference between R1 Air Carbon and the ST-1400, not sure if it justifies the price increase as it looks like the only difference is that R1 Carbon Air doesn't have a sun visor. I just like the fact I can re-use all the face shields I bought for my ST-1400 because they fit the R1. The ST1-400 has been my favorite helmet I've owned (also nicest & most expensive helmet, I've previously owned an Icon Alliance and a Scorpion EXO-710)

Do you expect Scorpion will ever introduce transition visors? I'm spoiled by my aging Bell Star Carbon, and would like to convert to Scorpion for the value but I NEED the transition feature (trackdays and touring). I'd rather buy this helmet with a transition shield, than the $750 Bell Race Star.

What is the noise difference between the r1 air and the exo 1400 carbon? I'm deciding between these two. I do not go to the track but I also do not use the drop down inner shield. I use it for city/back road/highway use. I like both but wondering what the real differences between comfort/noise/ventalation are? Don't wanna sacrifice road comfort for track features if the r1 air is a less road defined helmet ya know? I ride an upright naked bike Or if you have any other suggestions I'm will to pay up to about $800 on a new helmet if it's worth it

I'm torn between the r1 air and the st1400. I like the drop visor but not if it compromises viewing angle to much. How does the viewing angle compare between the 2 in tuck. Looking for a street helmet for sportbike.

Hey Van I have 2 questions, 1 I wear a XL in AGV would it be similar? and 2 I live in Socal and how is it in high 90 degree weather as far as ventilation?

Would you pick this over rpha 11 carbon?.What size do you wear for this helmet?.Nice review as always Van.

Is this helmet good in splitting the wind at high speed? Coz I found my Shark race r pro (without GP) and my Arai RX7X (without spoiler) is a bit wiggle when doing this job

Scorpion Exo R1 vs HJC RPHA 11 Pro? Both within similar price range and include tint visor + pinlock. I had my heart set on R1 but someone told me if you're paying for premium price you should get premium features like RPHA 11. They said Scorpion isn't as well known for premium helmets. Idk I just love the way R1 looks and both seem to score well for safety.

Im looking for the r1 or the exo-1400 air carbon because they have a drop down sunvisor. How is the dark smoke in all day light? What would you recommend?

Would you say scorpion makes better quality helmets than ls2...have had a scorpion before and was quite pleased with it however have never tried on an ls2. Need a new daily helmet, any advice helps thank you

I’ve been using an old scorpion r710 and need to upgrade. Im slightly more of a round head shape but the r710 fits pretty well. How would the fit compare to this r1? Thanks!

When is this gonna be available?? No one has it in stock anywhere. Also, do we have any news on whether or not there will be a 2021 Quartararo graphic for the EXO-R1?

Magic Carbon

Looking into a more expensive helmet now that Iv gotten a couple under my belt. But also want the best bang for my buck, for safety, noise, fit. This being one of my top pics what would you suggest for less than 700? Iv had icon air flight(not a fan) and sedici strada 2. Not a fan of helmets with bilt in sun visor.. any suggestions van?

How is the fit? I am looking at getting one of these. I fit nice and tight in size medium with Bell and Shoei, but I'm on the tighter side of Medium. Some helmets I require a large.

Looking for answer. New rider looking for all round helmet, comfort, noise, quality, aero etc. Think I've narrowed it down to shoei 1400 or this scorpion exo r1. I think i like the styling a bit better in this scorpion, bu looking for the better helmet??? I'll be on a sport bike. No track days prob for awhile

A 2.7 pound helmet that is ECE rated is pretty incredible. Is this an intermediate oval head shape helmet?

Bought this helmet in size M a couple months ago (at a different store). Store staff helped me on sizing and sent me on my way. After a couple of rides at higher speeds I began to notice the helmet started lifting upwards. When I got home I followed a helmet sizing guide and got to the conclusion that my helmet is too large. (it rolls up and down my head) the cheeks however fit nice and snug thanks to the inflatable system. My question is as follows: Would I be able to purchase and fit a size S helmet liner into the size M shell? That’d save me a lot of cash instead of purchasing a new helmet.

How is the wind noise on these? I’ve got a cheap helmet that gives you a headache after riding for a decent bit and the wind noise is so loud it’s hard to hear the Bluetooth. I’m really interested in this helmet as well as the air corpus and would like to know how well they block wind noise

On your site it states the carbon and corpus are the same weight (3.3lb), so really the carbon is more for an aesthetic choice?

Hi, I am considering this scorpion or the xlite full carbon rs. Which one in your opinion is the better helmet. Thanks.

This is now available in the US? I thought the carbon version is only released in Europe.

How does this helmet compare to say, the K6 for track use. Objectively, irrespective of safety ratings ... Does it have similar fit and finish? At the moment I'm torn between this, the K6 or an X-Lite 803 Ultra Carbon. I'm doing more aggressive street riding with occasional trackdays. Also, will you review the X-Lite 803 Ultra Carbon? Awesome videos, thanks!

What would be a better buy? Scorpion R1 carbon or the AGV k6? Casually driving through B roads, and occasionally trackday at a very beginner level?

What’s the difference with the ST-1400 ? Juste the built in sun visor? Thanks Van

How does this compare to the AGV k6 Which is more lighter? Quieter etc? Both in medium and the agv medium small

Hello STG.Alpinestars Atem V1 (2012), I want to buy Alpinestars Atem V2 (2015) suit. Is it in stock and is it produced? Thank you.

Can you do a comparaison between the R1 carbon and 1400 Carbon?

I may of missed it, but any update with the actual weight on the Medium DOT version of the carbon ? Thanks

Is this helmet suitable for a naked bike like the Bmw s1000r or is this helmet more racer oriented? We naked riders take on lots of wind without almost no windprotecion on our bikes...

My head is 60.5cm. do you recommend a Large or XL? My measurements fall between Large and XL

Hey man just wondering but can you fit a Cardo or a Sena system?

Is the carbon model same weight as their MONSTER version?

Right now, I think I'm between this and a LS2 Thunder carbon...

How’s this helmet stack up against the HJC rpha 1N i can’t make up my mind

Got this helmet but I installed the Cardo black on it and it keeps flopping my ears in it’s uncomfortable now it sucks

fit and vision compared to the R2000? that thing was perfection.

Where are Scorpion from? Good helmet. I'll stick to my Roof Boxer V8, though.

I have the Fabio replica. So this carbon fiber one is even lighter ????

Can you take this R1 on the track? Is it Snell certified?

Why wouldn’t you want to wear the ECE only on the street?

Should i buy this helmet or xlite rs 803 plz help me

Was this one not FIM approved as well?

DOES IT HAVE BUILT IN BLUETOOTH?

Hi is it FIM APPROVE?

Is this helmet available yet?

This seems better and half the price of the bell racestar Flex DLX. why would anyone buy the Bell instead of this one?

Come on Brian I just ordered a new helmet from you yesterday don’t do this to me

Some feature copy from rpha 11....i think rpha 11 have Very good ventilantion Than scorpion r1

I don't understand. DOT is a piece of shit standard and the Small R1 Air already passes FIM, how do they need to add weight to pass DOT?

Hey Van, I am trying to decide whether to go with this Scorpion EXO-R1 or the Bell Star MIPS DLX helmet. Do you have any advice of whether to choose one or the other? I ride a Harley-Davidson Pan America Special, and do mostly touring type riding.
