just my .02

I have used Fulmer, two HJC, Shoei and currently, Scorpion. I would rate them in this order: Fulmer, OK helmet, inexpensive to start out with. DOT and Snell rated. HJC, better helmet DOT and Snell approved, as noisey as the Fulmer with slightly better materials and assembly than the Fulmer. Shoei, the reputation was enough for me to become a dealer. I loved the helmet, Pearl Gray RF1000, very quiet, top quality materials and assembly. Scorpion, EXO-700 Matte silver Rivet. Love the helmet, the company is awesome and the helmet is outstanding. Quality, fit and finish are great. I think that for the $$$ the Scorpion is the way to go. If you want to drop 2x or more of the hard earned $$$, from my expierence, get the Shoei, not 2x the helmet but you sure can brag about how much you spend. I am currently a dealer for all of the above mentioned lines. None of them pay me in any way to promote the product. This is entirely from my personal experience.

*****DISCLAIMER: I CANNOT ADVERTISE, SELL OR PROMOTE THE ONLINE SALE OF ANY OF THE AFORE MENTIONED HELMETS. IT WILL RESULT IN ME LOSING THE ABILITY TO SELL THE PRODUCT.*****
