The Scorpion EXO-R320 helmet is in my opinion the best entry level helmet out right now. I’ll go ahead and list some pros and cons for the people that don’t want to read the review all the way through.
Pros:
- Dual Density EPS Foam
- Pinlock Face Shield
- Lightweight
- Intermediate Oval (if that’s your head shape)
- Chin Curtain Included
- can be quiet or can vent well (see below)
Cons:
- no tinted shield
- shell looks a little big as I am a small
Some things that really stand out to me:
It is the same shell as the EXO-R410 which was a Snell approved helmet, while the R320 is only DOT approved. This is because of the change of the shape of the lining, trending towards an intermediate oval shape. This means you get dual density eps foam which is going to protect you better than a single layer of eps foam. This essentially means that you can buy face shields for the R410 the only downside is that face shields for the R320 come pinlock ready while the different colored visors for the R410 won’t. The helmet can both vent well and can also be quiet. You can’t really have both. A helmet that vents well is going to be loud and a helmet that is quiet is going to be hot. You can remove the chin curtain to get extra ventilation through the front. The most convenient feature from the face shield lever is the ability to crack the shield open just a smidge to allow air to vent, but keep it almost closed for eye protection. The safest feature of the face shield lever is the ability to lock the face shield down for when you hit the pavement and slide, the shield won’t open.
Overall I would recommend this helmet for anyone’s first helmet as long as you like gloss black and white or matte black. I’ve found that helmets costing more than $200 aren’t necessarily safer, they just have more comfort features. The EXO-R320 is fairly new still so replacement cheek pads should still be around by the time you need them.

Description
Meets FMVSS 218. An every-occasion helmet with the adaptability to excel no matter where your next journey takes you, the NEOTEC II does it all with style and precision. The convenient “flip-up” versatility of a true two-in-one helmet combined with next-level aerodynamics, an internal sun shield, the Pinlock® EVO fog-resistant system, and the ability to seamlessly integrate with the all-new SENA SRL Communication System, the NEOTEC II is the pinnacle of modular helmet design for today’s hybrid motorcyclists.
The NEOTEC II's revamped modular, flip up functionality offers the convenience and versatility of a full-face helmet that converts smoothly and seamlessly into an open-face configuration for a true two-in-one design
The NEOTEC II’s advanced shield system provides a large, distortion-free view, facilitates smooth and easy shield changes, and comes equipped with an internal sun shield that offers riders instant relief from sun glare in one quick motion.
Equipped with large upper and lower vent shutters for ease of use with riding gloves, an expanded 3-position upper vent for optimal air intake customization, and uniquely-positioned upper exhaust outlet vents, the NEOTEC II’s ventilation is ready for every adventure.
Few characteristics of a motorcycle helmet are as critically important as its first and second layers of defense, which is precisely why the NEOTEC II features the SHOEI-exclusive Multi-Ply Matrix AIM shell and Multi-Piece EPS liner. The all-new stainless-steel Micro Ratchet Chinstrap offers quick and secure closure with unrivaled comfort and adjustability.
The NEOTEC II is equipped with a fully removable, washable, adjustable, and replaceable interior system that’s been enhanced for a comfortable fit and maximum helmet stabilization during high-speed riding. All-new ‘Noise Isolator’ cheek pads reduce unwanted road noises for advanced comfort.
Because the shape of the helmet looks a little bit bigger, but overall is good, I don't know, but my visor keeps fogging up a lot, sounds wise is just a normal as my Bell helmet
Just bought this helment recently and a great snug fit. Very nice design and very pleased with the comfort on this helment. The only downside that it didnt come with the tinted visor it came with a clear one instead other than that it's a amazing helment for the cost of it
Biggest complaint is the amount of noise on the freeway. Not the most impressive DOT safety rating but it's also a lower price-point so you get what you pay for. Good for beginners on a budget.
Came fast works great very quiet helmet very happy
Best in quality
