i had a suomy spec 1r until i hit my head on a curn\b the other night. i am going to presume it is done so i went and bought the scorpion exo 700. definitely a diffrence between the helmets, i had bought a scorpion because i heard thewy were grewat but it is heavier and the padding isn't as soft as the suomy but still pretty satisfied with it. i would recommend it for the price you get features of more expensive helkmets.

I have an HJC CL 12, HJC has a good selection of styles and provide good protection without breaking the bank.

Hey,
I have had alot of different helmets, kinda been picky looking for one that fits well, well made and is quiet. Here's what I've found so far on a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being the best.

1. Bieffe -4
2. Nolan -4 average helment
3. MDS -3 bad fit
4. KBC Force RR -3 poor quality, noisy
5. Shoei RF-200 -9 just and old lid that's awsome but fogs a little
6. Shoei RF-700 -8 bigger and noiser than above

Currently I'm using my old school Shoei RF-200 as I can't find a better replacement but I'd like to try a Suomy or Vemar.
