Scorpion Black Dahlia Motorcycle Helmet The Scorpion EXO-700 Black Dahlia helmet is a fantastic midrange helmet for a nice midrange price. Everything lines up, and there are no surprises. Trust me, there are usually surprises when you find a helmet priced too good to be true.

DOT-certified, obviously, this EXO shell is an advanced polycarbonate composite with an EPS-lined chin bar. The shell is aero-tuned for quiet riding, even at high speeds. Don't worry; the low dB are not at the sacrifice of proper ventilation. Front and rear vents provide ample flow-through.

The faceshield is no-fog, optically correct, anti-scratch, and uses a SpeedShift release system. According to Scorpion, you can switch faceshields in about 10 seconds without breaking out the tools. This faceshield is great in the rain because the smooth surface lets the raindrops bead away without catching on surface inconsistencies.

Breathable cheek pads and liners are made to wick moisture away from your sweaty head while providing a comfortable, clean fit. Scorpion gives the rider a choice of custom liners and pads in a variety of colors and patterns. Add that to the beautiful floral pattern of the shell and a selection of matte black or white, and you have one pretty helmet.

Scorpion wisely advises you to try their helmets on and you can find a place to do just that by performing a zip code search on their web page. Riders tend to find the fit to be secure, and there's the minimal issue with cold air getting up your neck. If you absolutely must keep out the breeze, Scorpion offers the Aero Skirt for about $8.
