ok so I finally decided on the brand after much reading but have one question. I need to know what size to get....i would love to skip the hassle of returning one from an online purchase. Anyway I was hoping by telling you how a couple other brands fit me someone can tell me to either get a large or XL (since people are saying they run generally smaller). The medium Shoei rf900 ( i think) fit me a little loose maybe cuz it was used. I am right about a large in Icon (still not tight enough) Joe Rocket medium fit me perfectly and the HJC medium was just ok. Any imput from someone who has had multiple helmets and the Scorpion being one of them and how the size compares to these others would be great. thanks in advance.
PS
Any deals goin on now? I see pretty similar prices

Hard to know.  Depends on head shape a lot.  The only way to know for sure is to try one on, true of any helmet really.  I have a narrow head and the large was the right size for me.  I can wear an HJC medium, but it is a little tight.  I Shoei or Arai large is noticably too large.

As far as sizing you can use this chart

https://www.riverwayracing.com/store/pages.php?pageid=3

I would personally say that I wear a XL in an HJC and Suomy as well as many other brands and also wear a XL in a Scorpion.  They are pretty much the same as others. 

If you normally wear a medium in those others, I would say your safe with a medium Scorpion.

As far as price, we as dealers (myself included) cannot advertise on the internet anything lower than the price set by Scorpion and that is why everyone has the same prices.  If a dealer is advertising lower they are lowballing other dealers who play by the rules and thus once caught by Scorpion will have their dealer status revoked.

If you are looking at a Scorpion Check out Riverway Racing https://www.riverwayracing.com/store/home.php?cat=4

FREE Shipping!!!  If you have any other questions regarding the line let me know.  Thanks.
