De Scorpion EXO-TECH II de ’s successor to de ’s popular Scorpion EXO-TECH EVO. At first glance, Scorpion has remained true to the same concept: a versatile full-face helmet with a chin guard that can be fully flipped back. However, with de ’s new generation, much more has changed than just the appearance.
Scorpion de has redesigned virtually all components of the EXO-TECH II that are important while riding. The chin strap mechanism has been completely redesigned, ventilation has been improved, the seal around the visor has been modified, various measures have been taken to reduce riding noise and the helmet is better equipped for communication systems. de de en de
In this comprehensive comparison, we put de Scorpion EXO-TECH EVO en Scorpion EXO-TECH II side by side. This way, you can see exactly what’s new, which parts have been improved en and what de the main differences are between the two full-face helmets.
De de s best known for its distinctive flip-back system. Instead of a chin strap that simply flips up, s able to move the entire chin strap backward over the helmet. de
de Scorpion EXO-TECH II retains that concept.
Scorpion de , however, has further developed this new generation in many respects. Not only has the design been updated, but the mechanism and various components of the outer shell have also been redesigned. Among other things, this redesign took into account the requirements of ECE 22.06 certification. en de de de
It is noteworthy that Scorpion was able to implement these changes without increasing the overall helmet volume.
In short, these are de the key improvements of de the new EXO-TECH II:
Below, we'll discuss these differences one by one.
One of the de most significant changes can be found in the feature that makes the de EXO-TECH series so special: de flip-back chin strap.
For de EXO-TECH II, Scorpion has completely redesigned the mechanism. Tension springs have been added to the new mechanism, which should make de operation smoother en and allowde the chin rest to move more precisely.
De de s therefore clearly more than just an EXO-TECH EVO with a new look. It is precisely the mechanical core of the EXO-TECH II full-face helmet that has been redesigned.
de , the way you open the de chin rest has also changed.
de ' EXO-TECH EVO uses a push button for this purpose. This design could be sensitive to pressure applied to the button from de the bottom side on de .
de 's EXO-TECH II therefore employs a different solution. De The helmet features a pull-out lever that de opens the chin strap via a hinged movement of approximately 40 degrees.
The new system remains intentionally easy to use, but makes accidental operation more difficult.
de 's EXO-TECH EVO model featured a separate locking lever. If used incorrectly, this lever could cause damage to the chin strap mechanism.
Scorpion de has therefore discontinued this lever in the EXO-TECH II series.
Thanks to the new locking mechanism, de retains the necessary functionality. en The de EXO-TECH II has ECE 22.06 P/J certification.
De P/J certification means that de helmet is certified for use in both de a closed full-face configuration and de an open jet configuration.
The design at de , specifically the hooks around de that secure the chin strap at de , has also been modified.
de 's EXO-TECH II features a chin strap hook ( de ) that is concealed by a cover. This cover serves more than just an aesthetic purpose.
During closing, the de construction helps guide the de chin bar correctly toward the de hook. This prevents the de chin bar from moving past the de hook.
At the same time, the de cover ensures a sleeker en and neater finish.
Scorpion has also made major changes to the de interior of the de EXO-TECH II.
De The new generation features an updated EPS structure in the upper section of the de helmet. This structure incorporates additional ventilation openings en and deeper air channels.
This allows de air to circulate more freely through de the inside of de the helmet en so that built-up heat can be dissipated more efficiently.
Especially during longer rides en and in warmer weather, better air circulation can significantly improve comfort.
Scorpion de hasn't just modified the visible vents. The path that air de de takes into the helmet de has also been improved.
Fresh air enters the helmet through de the top air intake de en and is then directed through deep channels in the EPS.
This airflow helps dissipate heat around the head, after which de heated air is directed toward de the back of de the helmet.
This results in a more comprehensive ventilation system that addresses both de air supply and exhaust.
de , on the back of the de Scorpion EXO-TECH II, there are four integrated exhaust ports.
These vents are designed to allow warm air to escape more quickly from de the helmet en , thereby de improving overall air circulation.
At the same time, de openings are aerodynamically integrated into the design. As a result, they also contribute to de the new, more modern look of de EXO-TECH II.
Not only de has the amount of air changed, but de the direction in which de air flows through de the helmet has also been adjusted.
With the EXO-TECH II at de , de the incoming air is directed more precisely along the sight rather than toward de the eyes.
This serves two important purposes.
First, de helps airflow along the visor reduce condensation. Second, de prevents ventilation air from being blown unnecessarily directly into de the eyes of de the driver.
Scorpion combines ventilation with greater comfort while driving.
We've found another significant improvement in the area around the main visor.
De EXO-TECH II features a newly developed seal around the de visor opening. When the visor is closed, this seal must fit more snugly against the visor.
A better seal helps prevent unwanted air from entering along the visor en and is also designed to reduce wind noise.
Especially during longer highway trips, a good seal around the visor can significantly enhance comfort.
Removing the visor has also become easier.
Scorpion has developed a tool-free system forthe EXO-TECH II at de . As a result, no special tools, flathead screwdrivers, or coins are needed to remove the visor.
This is especially handy when you want to clean the visor or switch between different visors on a regular basis.
Even a small part like the de mount for the de Pinlock has been updated.
de 's EXO-TECH EVO used push pins. For de EXO-TECH II, Scorpion is switching to two-piece Pinlock pins.
This design was chosen to make assembly de easier.
De EXO-TECH II is also compatible withthe de nd Pinlock Original 120 XLT.
Both de EXO-TECH EVO and de EXO-TECH II feature an integrated sun visor. However, behind de screens, de the controls for it have been modified.
At de , the EXO-TECH EVO mechanism uses a coiled wire. Among other things, this design could cause wear in de the guide, irregular bending patterns en , and operating noises.
De EXO-TECH II therefore uses a new straight-wire design.
With this, Scorpion aims to improve sustainability en and ensure smoother operation of the integrated SpeedView sun visor.
An interesting new option forthe de Scorpion EXO-TECH II series is the photochromic visor.
A photochromic visor is a motorcycle helmet visor that changes color in response to UV light. When de the amount of UV light increases, the visor darkens. When the UV light decreases again, the visor lightens once more.
The big advantage is that while riding, you're less dependent on manually switching between a clear en and a dark visor.
This is especially interesting for touring riders. For example, if you start riding in the morning, ride in bright sunlight in the afterno en , and later in the de day find yourself back in dimmer conditions, the photochromic visor can automatically de adjust to the changing conditions.
The Photochromic visor is an optional accessory en and is therefore not included as standard with every EXO-TECH II.
Various visor options are available for the EXO-TECH II de :
This allows you to further customize the de appearance en and functionality of de EXO-TECH II to suit your own preferences.
Noise reduction has clearly been one of de 's key priorities during de the development of de EXO-TECH II.
Scorpion It does not attempt to improve the noise level with a single specific change. Adjustments have been made in various parts of the de helmet.
These include de a new visor seal, de the position of de chin strap openings, en de a modified design around de the cheek pads.
On the de EXO-TECH II, de the openings for de the chin strap have been moved to de the underside of the chin EPS en facing downward.
As a result, de the openings are located farther from the ear en de where de the speakers of a communication system are mounted.
This change is intended to reduce wind noise around the ear- en speaker area.
It's a relatively minor design change that can make a difference in perceived comfort, especially on longer rides.
de 's cheek pads have also been modified.
De EXO-TECH II features additional flaps along de the edges of de the cheek pads. These components are designed to further reduce noise coming from de en the engine.
Together with de , an improved visor seal en , and repositioned chin strap openings, these features form part of Scorpions' broader approach to enhancing touring comfort.
It’s important to realize that no motorcycle helmet is completely silent. The actual noise level is also strongly influenced by, among other things, de the engine, the windshield, de riding position, speed en de and the fit of de the helmet.
Also, de (a montage from de ) has been modified.
de 's EXO-TECH EVO featured a sliding mechanism. Positioning it correctly could be relatively time-consuming because the part had to be slid precisely into de the designated opening.
Scorpion uses a simpler click mechanism forthe EXO-TECH II de .
This makes it easier to install de the front fender en remove it.
For an increasing number of motorcyclists, a communication system is an important part of de helmet. Navigation instructions, music, phone calls, and communication with other motorcyclists are becoming more and more common.
Scorpion de has explicitly taken this into account with the EXO-TECH II.
Between de the outer shell en and the EPS, space has been intentionally left for de the installation of a universal intercom clamp.
This makes it easier to mount universal communication systems on de helmets.
That’s what makes de EXO-TECH II an attractive option for motorcyclists who, for example, already use a Cardo, Sena, or other universal communication system. De Of course, the exact mounting options may vary depending on the system.
In addition to universal communication systems, de EXO-TECH II is compatible with de and Scorpion ’s proprietary communication systems.
A special mounting bracket is provided for:
These systems are compatible with the Scorpions Twist-Lock mounting system.
Scorpion thus combines an integrated solution for de its own EXOCOM systems with de the option to install a universal intercom.
Although many of the improvements are technical in nature, the appearance of the de EXO-TECH II has also changed.
Scorpion has redesigned various parts of the de exterior. In doing so, they did not simply opt for a larger scale to accommodate all the new technology.
Scorpion de has managed to implement these changes without increasing the overall volume of the helmet de .
As a result, the de EXO-TECH II retains the compact design that is essential to the flip-back concept.
One of de the minor visual differences between de the EXO-TECH EVO en and the EXO-TECH II de is the logo on the front.
De The new EXO-TECH II will feature a three-dimensional ScorpionEXO logo.
The new logo is designed so that it does not affect the de movement or operation of the bit mechanism.
It's mainly a design change, but at the same time, it's one of de the details that help you de recognize the new EXO-TECH II.
In addition to de the standard EXO-TECH II, de the new generation is also available as Scorpion the EXO-TECH II Carbon.
The main difference lies in de the outer shell. De The standard EXO-TECH II uses a thermoplastic/polycarbonate construction, while de the EXO-TECH II Carbon features a carbon fiber outer shell.
De EXO-TECH II Carbon is manufactured in two helmet shells.
For the de in sizes XS through en with size L, the listed weight is approximately 1,550 ± 50 grams.
For de sizes XL through en , including 3XL, the stated weight is approximately 1,600 ± 50 grams.
de 's Carbon de is the premium model in de 's new EXO-TECH II series.
In addition, de features a special Scorpion EXO-TECH II Carbon Onyx.
De ONYX stands out primarily because of its unique carbon finish. The pattern of the ONYX carbon varies, giving each helmet its own distinctive look.
De EXO-TECH II Carbon Onyx is therefore designed for motorcyclists who are not only looking for the " de " features of the de Carbon version, but also want a more exclusive look.
Technically speaking, Scorpion de has further developed the EXO-TECH II in many ways.
De The basic concept has not changed. Both models are flip-back helmets, in which de the chin strap can be flipped all the way back.
The difference lies primarily in de refinement of that concept.
De EXO-TECH II features, among other things, an updated chin strap mechanism, a different control system, a new EPS, deeper ventilation channels, four exhaust vents, an improved visor seal, tool-free visor removal, updated Pinlock pins, a modified sun visor mechanism en , and several noise-reduction measures.
In addition, there are de improved options for mounting a communication system en and new accessories such as the Photochromic visor.
That doesn't mean, by the way, that an EXO-TECH EVO is suddenly no longer a good full-face helmet. De The EXO-TECH II is primarily a thorough refinement of the existing EXO-TECH concept.
If you're having trouble deciding between the two models, the desired trim level is particularly important de price en .
De Scorpion EXO-TECH EVO may still be worth considering if it’s offered at a significantly lower price en —especially if you’re looking for the well-known Scorpion flip-back system.
If you're looking for the latest generation of de with all the technical improvements, then de Scorpion EXO-TECH II de is the more logical choice.
Motorcyclists who ride long distances in particular can benefit from the changes at de . De Improved ventilation, measures to reduce road noise, a new visor seal, redesigned chin strap controls en , and better preparation for communication systems are all features that are relevant during daily use en and on long rides.
De EXO-TECH II is de a further-developed successor to de EXO-TECH EVO. Scorpion Among other things, has improved the chin strap mechanism, de control system, ventilation, EPS structure, visor seal, sun visor mechanism, Pinlock attachment, noise reduction, en and preparation for communication systems.
Yes. De Scorpion The EXO-TECH II retains the familiar flip-back design, in which de the chin guard can be flipped all the way over de the helmet to de the back.

De P/J certification means that de helmet is approved for use in both de closed full-face configuration and de open jet configuration.
Yes. The EXO-TECH II De features the integrated SpeedView sun visor. The mechanism used to operate the sun visor has been redesigned compared to the EXO-TECH EVO de .
Yes. A photochromic visor is available for the de EXO-TECH II. The visor reacts to UV light en and can therefore become darker or lighter depending on de conditions.
No. The photochromic visor is an available visor option/accessory en and should not be considered a standard component included with every EXO-TECH II.
De EXO-TECH II is compatible with de Pinlock Original 120 XLT. De This new generation also uses two-piece Pinlock pins instead of de the push-pins found in de the EXO-TECH EVO.
De EXO-TECH II is designed for de installation of universal communication systems. Space is provided between de the outer shell en and the EPS for a universal intercom clamp. De The exact installation en and compatibility depend on the communication system used.
De EXO-TECH II is specially configured for de Scorpion EXOCOM LINK-1, LINK-1C en PULSE.
Scorpion has implemented various design changes intended to reduce noise. Examples include de a new visor seal, de repositioned chin strap openings, en additional flaps around de the cheek pads. How much of a difference you notice in de practice depends on factors such as de the engine, the windshield, speed, riding position en de and the fit of de the helmet.
No. De The standard EXO-TECH II uses a thermoplastic/polycarbonate outer shell. De The EXO-TECH II Carbon uses a carbon fiber outer shell. en This is de premium version of de series.
Anyone looking solely at the flip-back concept might think that de Scorpion EXO-TECH II is primarily an updated version of de EXO-TECH EVO. When you compare the two generations side by side from a technical standpoint, it becomes clear that Scorpion has gone much further.
de , the parts that you use constantly as a motorcyclist have been addressed: opening en and closing de the chin strap, ventilation, visor controls, sealing, sun visor, acoustic comfort en de , and installation of a communication system.
Scorpion It thus remains true to the original EXO-TECH concept, but has redesigned or further refined many of its components.
For existing EXO-TECH EVO riders, de this upgrade is especially appealing if you value de updated controls, enhanced ventilation, better preparation for an intercom en de and various features designed to improve touring comfort.
