I have one. It is a good helmet. It feels and looks big but is a pretty god fit for my head. I like the drop down visor for unexpected rain and extra eye protection when needed. Need to wear ear plugs to protect from the wind noise.
I have a full face Scorpion as well....my favorite but gets warm above 65. It is also a hassle to fill up or take a drink at breaks.

Yup I have had one for a full season and love it. It's probably the best I have had.

I bought one for function but returned it because I felt like the little character on the jetsons yrs ago. So yes it looks large on your head. IMPO.

My son and I both use one and are very happy with them. Comfortable and relatively light.

I have one also, but have to agree with Flavor, it does make me look cartoonish. Maybe thats why everyone smiles when they see me?
It does work well, I tend to keep the neck curtain in, but it's easy to get out if it's too warm. And the visor works well.

I've had one for a couple of years. It's probably the helmet I wear most often. It IS the most comfortable helmet I own.
