Why Buy A Scorpion Motorcycle Helmet

Why Buy A Scorpion Helmet

• An affordable helmet with big sticker price
  components.

• Scorpion motorcycle street helmets come in either
  the exo 400 or exo 700 version. The Exo 700
  series is made from a Fiberglass / Kevlar mix and
  the Exo 400 is made from Polycarbonate. In the
  700 line there are 4 different models available
  Solid, Fury, Geronimo and Raider. Exo 400's come
  in 3 different models Octane, Warhawk, and
  Solid. All of these motorcycle helmets are so
  reasonably priced that they are the best bang for
  the buck available. Technology that is generally
  used in 600 helmets is used in these at half the
  cost.
• Every Scorpion Helmet made is made with  the
  most rigid quality standards in the industry. It
  doesnt matter if its a Exo 400 or 700 the same
  high quality standards are imposed on both.
  Scorpion owns and operates its own helmet factory
  to insure quality. These helmets are made just
  like the 600 helmets you see. The reason they
  are able to make a helmet that runs around 200
  is because the entire helmet and all of its
  components are made directly by Scorpion where
  most helmet companies buy their parts from other
  companies at a premium or even the entire helmet
  and then place their own brand name on the
  finished product. Since Scorpion produces all
  their own components and manufactures the entire
  helmet themselves they are able to produce a high
  quality product without several middle man in
  between driving up the prices on components and
  such. The only thing they do not produce in house
  is the face shield which is produced close by in
  an equally advanced and controlled facility. With
  this in mind the only difference between a600
  helmet and a Scorpion motorcycle helmet is the
  money. So more money in your pocket and a quality
  helmet that not only is made meticulously but
  also looks as good as any other helmet out there.
  All these helmets are made to conform to Snell
  Certification standards.
• Every Fiberglass / Kevlar Scorpion Exo is made is
  laid up by hand over a 4C grade chrome coated,
  precisely heated carbon steel mold. This is after
  the fabric has been precisely cut and the
  polyurethane resin has been carefully weighed. An
  airbag is used inside the mold that ensures that
  the resin completely saturates the fabric which
  gives the best weight to strength ratio. After
  this process is finished every helmet is measured
  to ensure that there is uniform thickness as well
  as uniform strength.

• Polycarbonate Composite Scorpion Helmets are made
  from the same material that jet fighter canopies
  are made of. One can imagine that this material
  is very tough if it is being used in such an
  application. Scorpion uses this same material and
  makes it in to a helmet shell using an advanced
  process called thermo-set injection molding.
• After the helmets are produced they are fitted
  and finished in a futuristic clean room and
  painted. High quality water decals are added to
  make Scorpion Exo patterned helmets come alive in
  exciting colors and patterns. All are clear
  coated with a glass smooth  protective coating.
  This is done over the paint as well as the decals
  to ensure a long lasting durable finish. This
  finish is so durable that if your helmet pick up
  a streak or mark from say you accidentally
  rubbing a wall in your house the streak will come
  right off in most cases  using common automotive
  polishing compound. The finish is basically
  harder as well as being more durable then most
  finishes it is going to come in contact with.
• The face shield system on there Street helmets is
  just as revolutionary as the rest of the Helmets
  Scorpion produces. Using their own trademarked
  Speedshift system you can change the face shield
  in 10 seconds even with your gloves on and while
  wearing the helmet thats how easy it is. The
  Everclear no fog face shield which is also
  trademarked by this company features a coating
  that prevents the shield from fogging even if you
  are breathing heavy cause your tearing thru some
  twisties or its a humid day.
• The ventilation system and Aerodynamics on
  Scorpion motorcycle helmets are made to be top of
  the line. The Aerodynamics are tested in  Dan
  Gurneys All American Racers Indy Car wind
  tunnel. The main thing is to prevent lift during
  high speeds. The Exo 's spent as much time in the
  tunnel that it took to fine tune them for optimal
  ventilation and minimum lift.
• All liners on Scorpio Exo's are made with
  KwickWick liner material. This liner is made to
  draw away sweat from your skin to help it
  evaporate as quickly as possible. The evaporation
  actually helps the cooling process and keeps you
  more comfortable. All of us that ride know that
  helmets can get mighty uncomfortable especially
  when its hot and humid. KwickWick is made to help
  draw away that sweat and to let the ventilation
  system do its job and cool you down. All the
  liners can be popped out and thrown in the
  washing machine to keep your Scorpion helmet from
  smelling.
