« on: October 04, 2008, 01:08:48 PM »

Tried one on yesterday - pretty nice.  $329 less 10%...

Anyone have one?

Correct!

Alright, I think I found it on the web. Having you given it a ride at speed yet?
Do they have pockets for speakers?

One of the drawbacks to my current FF is the lack of ear pockets.
The EXO looks good, would like to try on and see if I could get my glasses on, the problem I have with most of the non flip helmets I have tried.

They're the only company I ever knew of that marketed a motorcycle "snow" helmet for poor weather.

And they are marketing it as fog free, that would be plus

No, just looking at this point, wondering about anyone with one...  It looks like a nicely made helmet and was fairly comfortable, it runs small.  I have two other FF helmets, both HJC, both XL.  This one was XXL and was snug.  Has a neat flip down visor, and is purportedly fog free which is why I am wanting it, I am getting tired of the fog in my HJC C-14.

Have to check the speaker thing - good point.

I have several Scorpion helmets. The no fog shield blows my Shoei pin lock system away. The 400 and 700 series helmets fit me a bit tight in the chin area. The 1000 has a slightly different shell design to it. I have had this shield only fog up once and I was using it beyond its intended use. I was four wheeling in the snow on a god awful cold night. Other than that I would say the shield is the best I have owned to date. The helmet is OK, not quite as quiet as my high end helmets but for a $200-$300 helmet it is worth the money. I'd like to see more design/graphic options. ;)

The cheek pads are removable and are offered in several different thickness'. From what I recall from the sale pitch there are only three different shell sizes and the rest is done with the pads.

Thanks!  Concur with the color/graphics.  Going to go Silver - since I use it on the Gold and Red bikes...goes with both.

I would say that depends on the size of the speakers. I wear my Ear Inc headphones with no discomfort what so ever. There is a cut out around the ear and I believe that is why I feel the helmet is a little noiser than my other helmets.
