Scorpion EXO R1 Air Carbon VS EXO ST-1400 Carbon Motorcycle Helmet
Just got these two helmets in today and wanted to make a side by side video. Overall I would recommend the R1 over the 1400 as I find that the quality is a bit better, the helmet is lighter, and it fits me more comfortably than the 1400. Let me know if you have any questions and I’ll answer them in the comments!

Got my ideal spec Sebenza in today! This is an exclusive small Sebenza 21 through BladeHQ. Unfortunately the Sebenza 21 is now discontinued as they are producing the 31 only now in the Sebenza lineup, and the inlayed 31’s are a one piece inlay, which is much different than the 21’s inlays. Hope you enjoy this video, and expect a lot more content in the future!

Agv helmets is tight on my jaw, do you think this is going to fit me better?
i wear a xxl with the shoei rf 1400 would it be the same for the r1 ? or would i need to size up ?
Ive been wearing a Scorpion 520, wondering about wind noise comparisons?
Good comparison. These are 2 different types of helmets for different types or riders; Scorpion 1400 is for cruiser peeps or commuters (plus includes internal tinted visor) Scorpio R1 Air is for track and street racers. I do like my Scorpion R1 Air but honestly have to say the quality does not match my Arai Corsair-X or even my older Shoe X-14 but these helmets are 1/3 the price too.
Thanks man, just got in a crash and helmet did scrape the ground stinks BUT not at fault since I was the one hit so new helmet otw! The ST1400 just looks better to me so that’s gonna be my choice
I prefer the look and the point on the back of the 1400
Living in a Mediterranean country, the drop-down sunvisor is crucial for me. Getting blinded by scorching sun, having the sun blaze into your eyes after exiting a tunnel, slick road surface reflecting the sun in your eyes from below, riding towards the setting sun with your face on fire, having to stop to put your sunglasses on/off everytime... all of the above create dangers and discomfort that are easily mitigated by a practical sunvisor like the one my Exo 1400 has. Wouldn't change it for the world.
In terms of seating position, 1400 seems more suitable for adventure motorcycles.
That R1 air is on closeout now i"am a get one as a back up helmet. i use to own the scorpion exor200 and exor710 they both were great helmets
nice job man
R1 looks massive
Have you seen the air pump in the lower front?
Is the helmet loud for others? Exo 1400 is, how is wind noise for you? mine is unbearable, I bought a closed crash helmet precisely because of the wind noise, but I won't wear it without earplugs, I would prefer to send it back to the manufacturer because this is not what I expected, I am disappointed!
If wind noise is your biggest concern then try Schubert c3 or a C5 if you have the budget and want built in comms
No helmet is quiet enough to ride without earplugs.
On the R1 I have 57 cm head do you think large will be too big??
Yes the size M would be netter for you
Two questions: 1) How do the ride aerodynamics compare? (Like, is the R1 designed for a more aggressive riding position? Are the two the same? IS the ST1400 any better for a more upright riding position?) 2)Are the pads from the R1 able to be swapped into the ST1400? Like, if purchased an ST1400 helmet and a set of R1 cheek pads, could I swap the superior R1 pads into the ST1400, and does that improve the fit? This video was already extremely helpful! Thanks :)
1. The R1 is better when driving at higher speeds when it comes to aerodynamics but under 120km/h you dont notice a diffrence except in noise level, the r1 have significantly more wind noise. 2. The pads are not able to be switched between the helmets
I also have 59cm. What size have you chosen for the R1 helmet? I ordered online without trying on size L and I think it's Ok. Thx
I have 61 and xl fits perfect.
How did you go with the size you got with your helmet? I am also 59cm and would so appreciate your feedback
Was large the right size?
@@solymiller659 I got a 59.5cm and wear L in all other helmets. Shoei in L is even a bit to loose for my taste, but M has the smaller shell, that doesn't fit my noggin. That being said, Scorpion helmets are always a number to small for my. So in my case, I have to wear XL, but I also have to say, that the R1 seems to be spacious for my head shape. I will test drive it in the comming week and it is possible, that this is the first Scorpion in L for me. TL:DR always testfit in a store, because in my experience, Scorpions fits like half a size (full size) smaller to me.
Would you say the r1 is a little more spacious? I just bought a 1400 in xl which I always wear and have a line on my forehead and over an hour after taking it off I still have a bad headache. Only rode a half hour with it too. Hoping the r1 in same size will fit a bit better
Got the r1. Way better all around.
@@nag4454 im looking at the r1 aswell. good to hear
I got st1400 in L and get bad headache wearing after 5min. Exchanging for XL. Hopefully it's a better fit.
hey i have the 1400 exo and it has a lot of wind noise. nice video
I have them both right now but I prefer the 1400. The material inside is very similar. As is weight. I love the flip down shades. Also chin airflow selector on inside of chin on r1 air scrapes my chin. The 1400 doesn't have it. They're both just over 3 lbs. The R1 air seems more aerodynamic.

@@nag4454 Hello! Did you buy an R1, how is the fitment compared to the 1400?
Nice Hinderers (and nice AP!)
perfect exactly what i was searching for thank you
Thanks for the video, I was searching exactly this type of comparison!
Exactly why I made this video! I’m surprised there’s not much more information comparing the two side by side!
Thanks for a side-by-side, I've been looking for days and couldn't find anything. My head is 56cm, but I run a med Shoei RF-1400 rn. Do you think staying med is alright? I'm still undecided but leaning toward R1. Was kinda looking for the sun visor since I usually go out in the afternoon and return at night, carrying a visor is a bit annoying. The build of the R1 does look nice tho. Do you think the 1400 is snug/ aero enough at higher 120+ speeds? Thanks Edit: What earbuds do u ride with?
I see you are right on the cusp for the small or medium. If your budget allows, definitely purchase both of the sizes if you do not have a local store to try them on at and then return the size that doesn’t fit as well but make sure to not take off any of the stickers / ride with it. I’d definitely recommend wearing it around the house for about a half an hour to see if you get any points with it being uncomfortable and also do the classic side to side and up and down movement to test fit. Overall, the 1400 is still a great helmet and my friend can also attest as he t boned an f150 with it on and had praised it, but I find that the r1 seems just a little bit better quality. I too do a lot of night riding and that was a big deciding factor for me but I really wish the st1400 had the option for a clear internal visor. Instead what I have been doing is just brining clear shooting glasses and riding with my visor up at night. I have yet to ride with these helmets on so can’t say but I’ve heard they are good, but the r1 might have a little better aero at those speeds. I use the MEE M6 Pro IEM’s with the short helmet cord. I plug them into my sena 50s so I can hear everything that comes through the sena in them and highly recommend them especially if you have an issue with wind noise and also want to protect your hearing!
So I've had the r1 air for a few weeks just got thr 1400 today have worn it once. I love the flip down shades! And yes the r1 air is Def more aerodynamic at speeds above 100 mph
@@nathanbrauerdocdead9947 Crazy I'm just seeing this but, I recently got the R1 2 weeks ago. And I love it. Wayyy lighter than my Shoei, love the air pump, looks sick, and the tinted visor is great during that day and almost clear at night. If I had to pick something I like the chin curtain to be bigger so less air gets through. But overall a great helmet for the money.
@@woodie8012 surprisingly the tinted visor does work at night ok. I ended up returning it for the 1400 it's just about as light and has the flip down sunglasses. Both are pretty great value though just comes down to personal preference.
Damn. Are you in MN?
Nice one...!! I have got valuable tips from your video....!!! ♡
That was pretty sweet. You should post more of these!
How much was it
I paid $450 for it new on the secondary market
@@Simplyblades that's a pretty penny, i have the CF Yojimbo 2
You actually got a good deal on that.
simply perfect!!!! :D
I have three H.'s. My first took about 2 months to smooth up, and I had to re-grease the bearings. The last one is pretty good, I will add grease to it eventually. I like H.'s blades, very much because they offer good quality, and options. Not just Ti handles, but colors, differing materials for spacers, etc. I can make it my own. Wish I could find a copper filler tab.
Excellent!
I've seen this knife before but the blade never looked so lively. That's a nice example you have.
I love that knife! Keep the videos coming!
I would like to see your serpents line if at all possible!
I actually just made a video last night on it and it's scheduled to be uploaded today at 5:30 central. Stay tuned!
Simplyblades Sweet I will check it out for sure!
That click is so satisfying
It's definitely missed. This is an old video, and I no longer have it, but it was a perfect blade.
My fingers are itching to flip that
isaac, I've been a sub to you ever since you had 150 subs, and you were "Isaacsawesome" I've talked to you on insta before and I miss your airsoft vids, you told me you privated them, that's fine but can you share them with me on this profile, cause idk why but I just loved them, please man do it for a day 1 fan like me! thanks
Hey Ben, give me your email and I'll try to see if it's possible to do so. Thanks for the support!!
Great little knife.
Awsome little blade isnt it ;-)
