    I'd be curious to see how well it performs when you turn your head or how much wind noise the visor generates. Had a Bell few years ago with an extended visor on an naked bike. That thing was unwearable and when it came apart at speed, back to Bell it went.

    Will depend on wind protection. My Madstad pops the wind over my head and my other helmet has a visor, no big deal. Prolly would suck with stock short windshield.

    Looks like my Bilt Roadster but with better venting and drop down shield. The visor would be nice too for eye shade. I'm gonna check it out.

    HJC makes one like that with shield and internal sun visor. Vents good has 4 vents up front an 2 in back. Just bought one for my girl. She loves it especially the sun visor. Price about 130.

    HJC IS-33? For those thinking about an IS-33, the sizing is on the tight side. Order one size larger than you normally would.

    I go to Cycle Gear myself. Helmets, gloves, jackets and the like are things that you need to try on so I go to the store to do that. (Never have to return an item) Also, my local store knows me and my wife by name. When I go in, they always have something new they want me to try or give my opinion on. I cannot say enough about Cycle Gear. Of course YMMV at your own local store. Harisburg PA Cycle Gear Rocks!

    OP: Thanks for the post. I like the features on the Scorpion and it wasn't even on my radar. I will consider it for my next helmet.

    Cycle Gear is great but the selection is very limited; much of what they advertise as carrying they have to special order... and I'm not sure if that effects the ability to return stuff.

    Revzilla is the better option; they have just about everything under the sun. Order... try it on as much as you want... then return it for a FULL refund. No restock fee, no nothing except return shipping cost.
