Yep - I have a Matte Blk EXO-700 w/ dark shield - love this helmet - had an Arai Quantum f & this helmet is just as good - I wear ear plugs when riding so wind noise is usually not an issue.

Hey if Mladin can use 1 - so can I

I have always worn Arai or Shoei. $35 for a shield isn't bad compared to $70+. Scorpion has found a way to produce a helmet with as good a quality as Arai and Shoei in my opinion. I've always been a believer in spending a little extra on the purchase of a good lid. I hate seeing customers walk in and purchase a new CBR only to grab the cheepest thing on the shelf. I always use this analogy "You'll buy your kid a $120 pair of shoes, but you wanna put a $10 bucket on your head, thats all you nogin is worth? " They get the idea.

Scorpion makes a great product, helmet and gear wise. That being said, we are unloading all of our other gear and helmets. We are going to carry the full Scorpion line in stock. I have all HJC on close out. That Carbon AC-12 is priced at $276.
