I never heard of them, but if it is Snell approved I wouldn't be afraid of it.

you get what you pay for as far as street helmets goes. it all just depends on how much you value your head. I wouldnt use anything other than arai, shoei and agv. I have put them to the test when i used to road race and they held up real well during a few high sides. ive seen other brands like kbc and hjc that did not hold up to good after a crash on both the track and streets.

well, i found some shoei ones i love but they carry a $500 dollar price tag. i looked at some others too like hjc, kbc, joe rocket, scorpion, and all them. never looked at agv or arai though. ill take a look at them.

they get a bit pricey with graphics but if you look for the 06 models you should be able to get a good deal on ebay or check out www.helmetshop.com located in daytona

I have never worn one but I have a friend that really has a helmet fetish. This dude buys a new lid every few months ..... He has a few Scorpions and he really likes them. He does his homework when it comes to buying anything(Tires ,Oil etc. ) and he knows his stuff.....so Id say they are good to go.

I like mine.  Of course it has never been used.  Oh, it's been worn and riden with.  But never really "used".  But it looks cool.  LOL
