Scorpion EXO-T520 Zuse Helmet Item # 1402824
Description
The Scorpion EXO-T520 Helmet - Zuse edition - continues to set the standard when it comes to value in a motorcycle helmet.
A lightweight, low-profile, and extremely comfortable helmet that's perfect for both city commutes and long-distance touring.
The aggressive, aerodynamic shape and unique AirFit inflation system combines to reduce drag and lift, while the EXO-T520's dual homologated (DOT & ECE) Advanced Polycarbonate shell and Multi-Density EPS provide the energy displacement and protection you need.
The EXO-T520 Anti-Fog coated EverClear outer face shield provides shatter and scratch resistance while, internally, the integrated SpeedView Sun Visor will help block the sun when you need it. Six adjustable intake vents and integrated rear exhaust vents align perfectly with internal channels, keeping you cool when temperatures rise, and warm when temperatures drop.
And for those who need to stay connected, the EXO-T520 was specifically designed to integrate with the new EXO-COM BlueTooth® Communicator Kit while the large speaker pockets also make it compatible with many other com systems in the market.
Design and Protection:
- Advanced Polycarbonate Shell - Industry-leading polycarbonate shell is engineered to be lightweight, strong and maximize impact displacement
- Dual Density EPS - Advanced multi-layer EPS provides superior energy displacement
Comfort:
- Aero-Tuned Ventilation - Closeable Intake vents on top force cool air in while exhaust vents maximize movement of hot air out of the helmet
- Dual Position Mouth Vent - 1st Position acts as defroster and 2nd position acts as defroster & ventilation
- AirFit® Inflation System - Airfit® inflation adjustment system allows you to custom fit your cheek pads which helps reduce wind noise and lift
- Retractable & Interchangeable EverClear® SpeedView® Drop Down Sun-Visor - Choose the up or down position with an easy-sliding mechanism

Best helmet I've ever owned
I don't know why I put up with bad helmets before, since this one is incredible.
It's easy to put on and take off yet feels solidly in place of when seated, comes with the standard D-ring, has the surprisingly solid pumping mechanism to fit the helmet appropriately and block out noise, has a wide field of view, and a drop-down sun visor. The emergency release tabs are a nice touch as well. Also, I wear glasses, and they work just fine with the helmet, and even with the drop-down visor! (Although I own prescription sunglasses, so I don't use it much, but it could be good on a partly cloudy day where I'm caught out wearing my regular glasses.)
With my old helmet, doing a shoulder check meant bashing my helmet up against my shoulder, but this one is appropriately shaped so that I can do that safety check more frequently, especially when changing lanes.
I would've easily paid another $30 for a MIPS system in it, but that's not a very common feature yet, so I don't consider it a negative.
Overall I would describe the helmet as "comfortable." It feels like it belongs on my head. The ECE rating also brings a lot of peace of mind. For the price, you can't get much better than this.
I bought the white/chameleon ocean-themed one, in XL.

SAVED MY LIFE
Slammed my head off the roof bar of a car, not even a headache, saved my life.

Great commuter helmet
Nice replacement for my previous Scorpion helmet. Being a larger shell size it is fairly noisy... but for the price and features I can't really complain! I wish the internal visor dropped down just a little bit further... but it is easy enough to get used to.

Good value
This helmet is good. Lots of features and feels solid. Runs a little small. I usually wear Large but had to replace it with XL which i feel is still too snug. Will have to break it in to get comfortable.

Very decent product!
Me and my wife bought two.
Very comfortable. A good inflating system keeps it steady and not sitting too heavy. Noise level is ok. Sunscreen is a great feature.

Is the visor pinlock ready? I was at the Montreal moto show and I saw this same helmet in small size (at a random stall) and it had a pinlock ready visor. Gentleman there confirmed that it comes with it. Can you please confirm?
It appears you don’t show tinted or mirrored visors as an option yet I did see that Revzilla does have them for the EXO-ST1400 / EXO-R1 Air / T-520 helmets. Is this something you can get? I’d rather purchase it all together.
We do list them here: https://fortnine.ca/en/scorpion-exo-st1400-r1-everclear-shield

Does this helmet comes with EXO-COM® Ready installed? if it's not which helmet has it and do you sell that one?
It does not come with EXO Com. Do your research on the EXO Com system before you buy it. I found that it wasn’t a very good product compared to Cardo and Sena

Is there a difference in shell size between the Large and Extra Large?
There are 3 shell sizes. LG and XL would be the same shell size.
