| Tried out the new helmets and the wife and i just got. They are the Scorpion EXO100. They are very comfortable and got some nice features, like the hidden sun shield that retracts into the helmet when not needed. It also got pockets in the ear pieces to hide communication speakers. We also tried our new communication system for the first time! I got it from ebay for around $60 (2 units). I like the way i can receive phone calls and listen to music/GPS (wirelessly) when paired with my iphone- totally hands free. I have my iphone on a Ram mount so i can see who's calling.The phone calls are very clear on both ends even at 100kph. I give the helmets ($125 each) and communication ($60 pair) two thumbs up!! |

| I like Scorpion helmets as well. My first helmet was an EXO-400 and I now have a couple of EXO-700s. Last week, I ordered an EXO-100 from a closeout sale and am looking forward to receiving it as well. According the UPS site, it will arrive tomorrow (Monday). |

| I have the same helmet. Best one I've ever owned, comfortable, cool and I love the retractable visor which can be purchased in different colors. |

I got the BT Multi-interphone. Seems to have lots of positive reviews online! I initially ordered it to use while ATVing with my youngest son but during the 30ish days it takes to get something from Hong Kong (ebay) I purchased an 05 Silverwing and decided the intercom (after it arrived) was too pretty for ATVing and was a perfect match for our new helmets!! Thats what i told him anyways maybe later i'll order another set for the ATVs. |

| Received the EXO-100 today. Wow, it's every bit as great as the others have mentioned on this thread. |

| I love the scorpion too and really like the fighter pilot pull down shade. It is a very comfortable helmet and the pull down shade is great and very handy. It is the only helmet I wear, even in winter. Although where I live in California it is always warm, at least for me.
But before I wore it I was sprayed for crabs. |

| I have 3 Scorpion hemlets. My first one was the EXO 1000, then I bought a modular EXO 900 and a half head EXO 100 with the pull down visor. Each one is loaded with useful features and great ventilation. Plus the shape of the helmet just seems to fit my rather large head. I love them |
