Question Scorpion Helmets

I'm in the market for a new helmet, and am looking at the Scorpoin EXO-100 shorty helmet with the flip down sun visor/face shield.
Is anyone out there riding with one of these? If so how do you like it? Good fit? good construction? How well does the flip down shield work?
Thanks for any feedback.

I have 1 , it is a good well made helmet but I would not buy it again if I had it to do over again. With the neck liner removed the helmet pushes the top of my ears down , with the liner on it's fine!

I've got one and I love it. I typically ride with sun glasses but in the early mornings or at night the flip down visor work great. The fit is great and the ear flaps easily zip out when you don't need them. The liner also comes out so you can clean it. All in all it's a really good helmet in my opinion.

I wanted one when I saw an ad for them. But I did not like the fit and my wife said I looked like Kazoo with that helmet on. I think you have to try it on and make your own decision. I do like the visor built in.

I got one and it is great. I have the smoked lense and got a clear one for night riding. Very easy to change out. Ny ears did rub on the inside liner that snaps in. I just took it out, marked were my ears touched it and trimmed it. Took a needle and thread and sewed the edges back. Took about 30 minutes and if I can do it anyone can.

I thought it was me, good to hear everyone else's ears hit too! Overall I like it but it looks kinda big. Good for the price! Fits good. Like the goggle. I've got a Seer on order too right now.

I have the Scopion EXO-200 3/4 helmet. I have not had it all that long, but its comfortable as hell. Some had said they run small, but mine has been true to size. I'm pretty happy with my purchase

Are there any other half helmets with the drop down visor ( not the hinged visor)?

I have the Exo-200 and it is very comfortable. I am not impressed with the noise. I wear my ACC 1/2 helmet 90 % of the time. The 3/4 helmet is much warmer and the shield is great for the wet weather.
