Spurgeon, you're right on the money with this review. I got this from RevZilla last week and everything you pointed out is true. The tinted drop down doesn't drop far enough (it's also not as optically correct as I'd like), the top vent is good but it feels like I have a cold mohawk, and the visor latch is clunky. All that said, this thing is lightweight, comfortable, relatively quiet, really aerodynamically stable, and looks awesome. For the Sena 30K speakers, the cutouts have small protruding clips that actually lock the speaker in firmly, which is sweet. Also, the Harry Potter scar on the crown is really easy to remove.
I have been considering getting this helmet, but that stupid hood ornament they put above the visor bothered me. Thanks for mentioning it can be removed easily.
@@lfreece2 No problem. Here's a bit more on that. The plastic can just be pried off. When I did it, it left most of the double sided adhesive strip behind. This is stretchy, so just pull it very slowly, and without much pressure and it'll all come off without leaving any residue. If it does leave residue use some different tape and stick it to any remaining stuff and pull it up. They specifically mention to *not* expose the helmet to solvents or petroleum based products (probably has the potential to interact with the epoxy that the CF is cured with). Good luck!
This is my 3rd year of riding with this helmet, so I think I can give an honest review... Overall, it's great value for money... 2 visors and a pinlock included, lightweight, comfortable and cool-looking, but with some issues: 1. the internal sunglasses loosen and slightly drop down after some time, disrupting field of vision. The seller said to me a lot of buyers of this particular model complained to him about this. Apparently its a production fault. 2. The spike-shaped back side of the helmet presents a problem when having a passenger.. collision of helmets occurs more than usual. 3. while the lower part of ventilation system works fine, the upper part appears to be useless.. I honestly feel no difference in airstream, no matter which position i set the lever to.
@@adilghazanfar519 no, you can't chin mount GoPro cam with 3M adhesive tape on this helmet... Not enough straight surface.. but you can side mount it, and you get a great shot.. that's what I did. As far as noise is concerned, it is average... as every other carbon fiber helmet.. ear plugs help, i wear them on longer rides.

Eric Kimani. Everything is a commercial. Nothing is sincere. RZ is his US distributor link. Originally RZ would do gear reviews and then you'd see Ryan glow over the same product a month later, then you'd see the others follow suit. For the last year they've led with Ryan, then followed up at RZ to close the sale. A motorcycle today is like buying a Barbie for a girl of the past. The doll was cheap, but all the stuff was endless, and you need an entire clubhouse of dolls with their own specialized dream house of stuff. The reviews are entertaining, like watching Shop Smith infomercials (then New Yankee Workshop) but you don't have to buy all this crap. Gear up to your needs after buying a bike. Wear it for five years, replace & repeat.... These vloggers with 150 different helmets, 20 diffetent sound systems, some dressed for an Apollo mission, obsessing over $300 packs, $150 gloves or $400 seats. Even if they mock them with a little joke, they're still advertising the product. It is fine as long as you know it is a Shop Smith infomercial.
@@STho205 No disagreements here, It comes with the territory of motorcycles moving away from the niche and especially with the internet everyone is trying to sell you something.
Fortnine only ships locally, i'm from Australia so when I go to his website it directs me to Revzilla, so i'm assuming they are business partners. Also Revzilla do much more refined reviews than Ryan @ fortnine in my opinion
cool, i appreciate how he pulls the whole helmet apart. i just bought one new and i would be a bit apprehensive about doing that. especially the emergency parts. what i noticed on my first ride is that you get a very wide view from the visor. would recommend it.
I'm always worried about tearing a new helmet apart to, but it came apart exactly as he showed, no problem at all. Don't think I would have done it without this video
@@dylansmith697 pros- Very lightweight, great styling, strong build. The interior padding is very comfy and has a nice smell. It has the airfit system which snugs up the cheeks (I dont really use it, but for long rides its there if needed). The drop down sun visor is easy to activate with gloves while moving. Cons- they could have used a better chinstrap mechanism. Just the standard metal loops, but for the price and other features included, i can deal with it. Ventilation could be better. If youre not moving, itll fog up unless you crack the visor. Maybe this is true of all helmets, idk. The box includes a second face shield that supposedly has better ventilation bc of a "pinlock" feature or something. Have not tried it yet out of laziness It also gets very loud above 60 mph, earplugs help a lot.
@@DonC23 The pump is a sales gimmick IMO. I tried it again today and it doesn't reduce noise or air rushing in under the helmet to a noticeable extent. All it does is exert pressure on your cheeks that can get uncomfortable. If the helmet fits you properly you shouldn't really need the air pump in the first place. I also always forget to release the air when it's time to dismount and de-gear. I'm leaving that feature alone from now on, but it's still a great helmet.
Scorpion Helmets are always my to go first before ever considering other brands. They have the best of the best in ratings (ECE,DOT,SNELL), and price of course!!
I have that helmet for a few months. Good: looks cool, it is very light, cheap for carbon helmet, 2 visors (black and regular), quiet. Bad: ventilation is crap! I have to ride with visor open when is above 25 degrees celsius. But worse than that is that visor is fogging even with pin lock. Sun glasses are also fogging. If you ride on cold sunny day, forget that sun glasses. If you riding in rain. Well, god luck. My cheap crappy exo 500 didn’t have fogging and ventilation problems, but this one have:( Except that. Great helmet for reasonable price;)
Most with a drop sunshield buckets don't ventilate well. They removed both ridge vents from the Exo410 shell, as the sunshield needed a cavity. The one on top is barely doing anything if the shield us up. Jet pilot shield means no SNELL testing either, which they were obsessing over, till, like HJC they went jet sunglass. I do like the bigger visor tab over mine. Pinlock is nice. Sunshield is going to fog horribly, but who needs sunglass in the rain.
Maybe it has to do with the carbon? I have the regular Air 1400 and didnt have any of these problems. I come from an HJC IS17 and I'm really really happy with the ventilation as well.
@@lungulet Damn Lungu, the Caberg Evo Drift Carbon looks like a great option. I'd like to upgrade from a Scorpion R-710 at some point. Was thinking about the ST1400 Carbon Antrim in black/yellow. But I'm liking the Evo Drift Carbon more. Just a little difficult to get in the U.S. Looks like I'll have to buy on Ebay from the UK. Thanks for the recommendation! Edit: Considerably lighter than the ST 1400 as well. 1250 grams versus 1515 grams.
Carbon is really tough to work with, installing more wholes/ vents would not help with durability of the helmet shell on impacts. However, overall its a great buy for the money!!!
I have the sneaky suspicion this may not be true carbon fiber 100%. I have the poly carbonate 410 that's almost two years old. It too weighs 3lb 11oz on my kitchen scale set on SAE. How can a carbon fiber ultralight be only slightly less heavy than a polycarbonate with the same shape getting 4 SHARP stars in collision tests. China is sometimes a bit misleading with the visuals. Remember even the padding is showing a carbonfiber style paintjob. Hard to get a true review since everyone is a salesman first. I'd hate to find this is not a laid helmet but a plastic cast one with a paintjob. I didn't see a SNELL testing cert on it. Two years back they were screaming SNELL or nothing at Scorpion dealers. DOT being 'crap'
The helmet is true to size. Just a bit tighter when putting it on but after its on, there is more room. A small exo ST1400 fits as snug as a XSM exo T120. Its alot tighter when putting it on than the xsm t1200, how ever once its on there is more room inside by your ears. The small and sxm T1200 puts a little bit of pressure on top of my ears. Both versions are very comfortable. The ST1400 is better fitting and more comfortable.
This is my 2nd Exo, the first one was EXO 1100 love it was perfect and easy to remove and put back on the shield. I just got the EXO 1400 Carbon Air which is beautiful, light and comfy, but to remove and especially put back on the shield IT'S A PAIN WITH THOSE 4 LITTLE PRONS THEY ARE NEVER ON THE RIGHT PLACE I am ready to resale the dam thing. Do buyer beware.
I actually own & use the EXO420R Scorpion helmet with is an awesome LID I like the fact that Scorpion makes room inside their helmets for people who wear prescription glasses & I'm sure this helmet is no different, this is a very nice carbon helmet for the price point, as always RevZilla knocks it out of the park with their reviews & selection of products, I myself had bought a couple of thousand $ of merchandise from them over the past year between me & my 2 sons that ride, & plan on doing more in the future because of the ease of return to swap sizes if u make a mistake #RevZilla
Not mentioned but I heard d they come with a 5yr warranty. So maybe if the sunshade system fails you are covered. I am not a 100% sure on that. I would rather spend $400 and get the things included instead of say $700 for Ruroc. I have a Icon that works for me but looking to get a second helmet and would like carbon.
The EXO-ST1400 is the DOT-rated model for the American market. The EXO 1400 Carbon Air is the ECE-rated model for the European market. The helmets are reinforced in different areas to meet the different safety requirements. -DrewZilla
Come on, buddy...... the reason why there's no brow vents is because of that inner sun shield! You see any sun shield visor system helmets with brow vents ever? I don't know, I've never seen one. I suppose it might work if you constantly drop down the shield and ride that way, but with the shield up, it doesn't work hence why manufacturers don't ever include those brow vents and only use 1 vent on top to do the duties.
I'm interested in buying this. I ride a Harley though... will it look weird on a cruiser? Sport bikes and the look are not my thing. I do a lot of touring.
KDann12 To me in fits more on the long side. Before buying the ST-1400 I tried the Shoei RF series but it gave me a pressure point in the middle of my forehead. I didn’t get that with the scorpion which is why I bought it.
@@kriskinsey64 I'm say way needing a long oval fit helmet. How's yours holding up? Is it quiet? I hear mixed reviews on the noise of it. Thanks in advance.
@@deweysturgill6220 Mine has been holding up great. I did a 650 mile 3 day 2 night trip with it about 4 weeks ago. Never once got uncomfortable while wearing it and we did around 230 miles a day. The helmet can be loud, especially if you're not running a windshield but I wear earplugs while riding so it doesn't bother me that much. Hope that helps!
I was mindblown by the reviews and bought this helmet 2 months back .. there's a gap between visor seal and the visor which causes annoying noise over 120kmph... rubber packing has come off at 2 places ...highly disappointed.. waiting to send it back to the retailer... fit and finish isnt that great compared to hjc rpha 70 or shoei rf1200 !!..
Would it be stupid to use this with an adventure motorcycle? Or does it really matter? I’m just starting to get my licence now and know nothing about motorcycles and gear. 😅
Here in the US, the Scorpion offers both DOT and ECE safety ratings, whereas the HJC is only DOT-rated. Additionally, the Scorpion is more affordable than the HJC, so the Scorpion is the better value currently. -DrewZilla *bit.ly/EXO-ST1400
For commuting, probably the Scorpion, as it has the convenient drop-down internal sun visor and is quieter. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/scorpion-exo-st1400-carbon-helmet
How this one compares to the Shoei NXR? I already have a NXR and I'm considering switching to this glossy carbon because I love the looks and the fact that it has a visor, but I wouldn't like getting a helmet worse than the NXR.
The NXR (RF-1200) is still one of the best street helmets, so even though this is a good helmet, I would keep your Shoei if you already like it. -DrewZilla
Hi revzilla if we compare hjc rpha 11 lowin carbon to scorpion exo 1400 air carbon which one is better for daily rides?(i use bike for my weekdays job to avoid heavy traffic) ur suggestion is highly appreciated tnx
That's not being sold here in the United States, so we won't have a review unless they start selling it here. Apologies for the inconvenience! -DrewZilla
Does anyone have this helmet I’m considering getting it but how does the air flow differ from a shoe at the moment I have a shoe and I’m not sure to stick and get a new shoe or get this one
Anyone ever review how stable a helmet is at speeds? I've got a IS-17 and a K3, at speed the K3 feels like my head is in a washing machine especially when doing a head check. I think the winglet thing on the back of it makes it turn into a paint shaker if your head isn't dead straight.
How does this helmet compare to the 2016 Bell Star (touring version). I have this helmet and I'm looking to change it...I know that my Bell is friggin heavy (4lbs) compared to this one but I feel that it's pretty quiet and a good overall ventilation...anyone could give me some advices ?
The Bell is a little bit quieter than the Scorpion, but with ear plugs, it's not a big difference. The lighter weight does make a difference though, which is nice. -DrewZilla
The ST1400 has a drop down sun visor and weighs a bit more than the K6 because of it. I would figure out of that feature is a deal breaker for you and your ride and decide from there. Both are solid helmets though.
It's hard to say, because both have similarly good construction and features. They are also almost exactly the same weight. The AGV has a slightly rounder fit compared to the Scorpion, so that is the biggest difference in my opinion. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/scorpion-exo-st1400-carbon-helmet *www.revzilla.com/agv-k5s-helmets
It will accept most any universal-fit communicator, so just avoid communicators designed for a specific helmet. Personally, I'd go with a Cardo PackTalk BOLD or the Freecom series from Cardo. -DrewZilla *bit.ly/ST1400_Cardo
Stop to good reviews about this helmet. Just received one and it's construction quality is very poor, is external carbon fiber sheet is as thin as a paper and too much flexible. Air vents are badly glued with some kind os double side stick band. Wind shield is very noisy. Upper foldable glasses are rough, not easy to up and down.
It all depends whether you want an internal sun visor. If yes, go with the 1400. If no or if you ride more in a full-tuck position, then consider the R1. -DrewZilla
Why the hell do people from America that are trying to sell something say “it’s going to have this feature” when it’s already there ? The dude in this video says “it’s gonna have nice deep speaker pockets” if you use the term “going to Have” it means it’s not there yet but it’s coming in the future, if the bloody thing your talking about already has a feature, then say it’s GOT nice deep speaker pockets. If you’re going to use the English language, at least do us the favour of using it correctly............... and stop talking so bloody fast too.
It isn't that big of a deal bro, you're just angry for no reason. Idk if you realize this but there are hundreds maybe thousands of differences in English depending on where you live, so calm down bro.
Ok. I keep seeing/hearing Revzilla employees say long oval fits most people in the American market. That seems a bit dubious given that this is not a, shall we say, homogeneous society. What data are the basis for this assertion?
Generally it's intermediate oval that fits most of the American market, and we know this based on sales data and additional research that some of the helmet manufacturers have done. -DrewZilla
No need this. If you hit your head over 100kmh/h you're neck will give up. So buy some helmet for 150-250 and enjoy your life. Ofcoz if you can afford it then buy it .
I've had this helmet for well over a year, never once have I opened or closed the chin vent by accident when operating the shield opening mechanism.
me either. love this helmet. comfy
Just learn that exist since 6 months :)
It’s the same system as on the exo 420 and I’ll agree with you. I just use my thumb
Spurgeon, you're right on the money with this review. I got this from RevZilla last week and everything you pointed out is true. The tinted drop down doesn't drop far enough (it's also not as optically correct as I'd like), the top vent is good but it feels like I have a cold mohawk, and the visor latch is clunky.
All that said, this thing is lightweight, comfortable, relatively quiet, really aerodynamically stable, and looks awesome. For the Sena 30K speakers, the cutouts have small protruding clips that actually lock the speaker in firmly, which is sweet.
Also, the Harry Potter scar on the crown is really easy to remove.
I have been considering getting this helmet, but that stupid hood ornament they put above the visor bothered me. Thanks for mentioning it can be removed easily.
@@lfreece2 No problem. Here's a bit more on that. The plastic can just be pried off. When I did it, it left most of the double sided adhesive strip behind. This is stretchy, so just pull it very slowly, and without much pressure and it'll all come off without leaving any residue. If it does leave residue use some different tape and stick it to any remaining stuff and pull it up.

Good luck!

Tony Kart Racer check your facts chirpy, my EXO 1100 has brow vents and visor so does my girls hjc
I'm interested in buying this. I ride a Harley though... will it look weird on a cruiser? Sport bikes and the look are not my thing. I do a lot of touring.
Buy the blue one tomorrow
What is the diference between the Scorpion EXO-St1400 Carbon Air and the Scorpion EXO 1400 Air?
The Carbon...
Some people are complaining that there's lots of noise. Is it true ?
i like mine a lot. great helmit for the money.
It's intermediate oval but does it sit on the round side or long side of the spectrum. Some helmets say intermediate oval but are closer to long oval
KDann12 To me in fits more on the long side. Before buying the ST-1400 I tried the Shoei RF series but it gave me a pressure point in the middle of my forehead. I didn’t get that with the scorpion which is why I bought it.
@@kriskinsey64 I'm say way needing a long oval fit helmet. How's yours holding up? Is it quiet? I hear mixed reviews on the noise of it.
Thanks in advance.
@@deweysturgill6220 Mine has been holding up great. I did a 650 mile 3 day 2 night trip with it about 4 weeks ago. Never once got uncomfortable while wearing it and we did around 230 miles a day. The helmet can be loud, especially if you're not running a windshield but I wear earplugs while riding so it doesn't bother me that much. Hope that helps!
I was mindblown by the reviews and bought this helmet 2 months back .. there's a gap between visor seal and the visor which causes annoying noise over 120kmph... rubber packing has come off at 2 places ...highly disappointed.. waiting to send it back to the retailer... fit and finish isnt that great compared to hjc rpha 70 or shoei rf1200 !!..
I am just researching this scorpion EXO T1400 because I have EXO T1200 Mainstay white and stop making it because noises!
Which is better between Scorpion EXO 1400 Carbon and AGV K6?
Would it be stupid to use this with an adventure motorcycle? Or does it really matter? I’m just starting to get my licence now and know nothing about motorcycles and gear. 😅
That front shield button is a real turn off on an otherwise desirable helmet. I'm looking for a carbon helmet, but that just is a no sale feature.
Somebody knows if I take the L, will it fit M size head with the pumps filled?
Can you guys compare this with hjc rpha 70st carbon? Please?
Here in the US, the Scorpion offers both DOT and ECE safety ratings, whereas the HJC is only DOT-rated. Additionally, the Scorpion is more affordable than the HJC, so the Scorpion is the better value currently. -DrewZilla

my helmet's top air vent is broken. from where can I order only the top airvent part?
Can I clean the helmet with ceramic detail spray
HJC CS 15 VS SCORPION? (not intrested in internal sunglass and price dosen.t metter)
Will cardo jbl speakers fit in? Thanks
Safety ratings?
Whats the difference of this helmet and the r1?
2 face shields?
I'm in the market for a great new helmet, and comparing this with the HJC rpha 11 pro. Which would you say is better for a daily spirited commuter?
For commuting, probably the Scorpion, as it has the convenient drop-down internal sun visor and is quieter. -DrewZilla

Are you going to make a review for the scorpion r1?
Well it isn't available in the US, but if/when Scorpion brings out a US version, we would review it. -DrewZilla
How this one compares to the Shoei NXR? I already have a NXR and I'm considering switching to this glossy carbon because I love the looks and the fact that it has a visor, but I wouldn't like getting a helmet worse than the NXR.
The NXR (RF-1200) is still one of the best street helmets, so even though this is a good helmet, I would keep your Shoei if you already like it. -DrewZilla
@@RevZilla thanks!
Yes, I love the NXR, except for the lack of a visor and the fact that the top vents are not that easy to operate with gloves
I want now!
Anybody know if a size M would fit in the 'frunk' of a 2014 Honda NC750X? Thanks.
Hi revzilla if we compare hjc rpha 11 lowin carbon to scorpion exo 1400 air carbon which one is better for daily rides?(i use bike for my weekdays job to avoid heavy traffic) ur suggestion is highly appreciated tnx
Probably Scorpion, because it has the internal sun visor and is quieter. -DrewZilla
*www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/scorpion-exo-st1400-carbon-helmet
Are the visors any better? My scorpion 1200 has a horrible visor. Clouds up in direct sun light. Some type of horrible film on it.
thin layer of dishsoap thats left on for a few minutes and gently wiped with a microfiber cloth till the lens is clear is a great inexpensive anti-fog
hi what about a review for the scorpion r1?
That's not being sold here in the United States, so we won't have a review unless they start selling it here. Apologies for the inconvenience! -DrewZilla
Does anyone have this helmet I’m considering getting it but how does the air flow differ from a shoe at the moment I have a shoe and I’m not sure to stick and get a new shoe or get this one
Center lock , to use whit both hands..! How can you have brow vents when there is an internal sun visor .....???
Better stay with the pants reviews.
Anyone ever review how stable a helmet is at speeds? I've got a IS-17 and a K3, at speed the K3 feels like my head is in a washing machine especially when doing a head check. I think the winglet thing on the back of it makes it turn into a paint shaker if your head isn't dead straight.
I ride a naked so I rarely go above 130km/h (around 70mph?) but I also get the full wind. This helmet at those speeds is very very stable.
Hayabusa TK
It is very stable helmet. You can turn head above 100 mph and it wont try to break youre neck.
This helmet is amazing at 150+. Virtually no lift. I will say though that it's much less stable laterally, if you turn your head at high speed.
Hey,
i lost my ear-pads from this Helmet.
Where can i buy them?
@RevZilla
ty
Unfortunately, the ear pads aren't offered to us for sale on their own, but you might be able to contact Scorpion directly for a new set. -DrewZilla
is this the matte version or standard black?
This is the standard gloss black version. -DrewZilla

How does this helmet compare to the 2016 Bell Star (touring version). I have this helmet and I'm looking to change it...I know that my Bell is friggin heavy (4lbs) compared to this one but I feel that it's pretty quiet and a good overall ventilation...anyone could give me some advices ?
The Bell is a little bit quieter than the Scorpion, but with ear plugs, it's not a big difference. The lighter weight does make a difference though, which is nice. -DrewZilla
Does the air balloom blows if someone intentionally/unintentionally pumps too much air?
Fortnine did a video where he pumped the airfit to the point it burst.
You don’t need to worry my exo1200 deflates within about 5 minutes, always has from new.
This or the AGV K6? I’m really torn
The ST1400 has a drop down sun visor and weighs a bit more than the K6 because of it. I would figure out of that feature is a deal breaker for you and your ride and decide from there. Both are solid helmets though.
@@RevZilla I’ll go for the scorpion if it’s a comparable helmet. Thanks for the advice 👍
Scorpion 1400 or AGV K5 S?? Thank you.
It's hard to say, because both have similarly good construction and features. They are also almost exactly the same weight. The AGV has a slightly rounder fit compared to the Scorpion, so that is the biggest difference in my opinion. -DrewZilla

Scorpion r1 air review plz
Once we have stock, we'll have a review. Right now, that's late-February 2020. -DrewZilla
*www.revzilla.com/scorpion-exo-r1-air-helmets
Love to see r1 air review too
that cool helmet i like.
what bluetooth com goes well with this helmet?
It will accept most any universal-fit communicator, so just avoid communicators designed for a specific helmet. Personally, I'd go with a Cardo PackTalk BOLD or the Freecom series from Cardo. -DrewZilla
*bit.ly/ST1400_Cardo
1:27 what color is this?
Carbon Black i think
Stop to good reviews about this helmet. Just received one and it's construction quality is very poor, is external carbon fiber sheet is as thin as a paper and too much flexible. Air vents are badly glued with some kind os double side stick band. Wind shield is very noisy. Upper foldable glasses are rough, not easy to up and down.
r1 or exo 1400?
It all depends whether you want an internal sun visor. If yes, go with the 1400. If no or if you ride more in a full-tuck position, then consider the R1. -DrewZilla
@@RevZilla okey thanks
Very nice helmet, but it isn’t made out of Kevlar. Hence the price.
That lid weights 1260grams sir thats not 3lbs 3 oz thats 2 lbs 7oz. 🤣
the US model we weighed in size Large weighed 3.34 pounds. -DrewZilla
Why the hell do people from America that are trying to sell something say “it’s going to have this feature” when it’s already there ? The dude in this video says “it’s gonna have nice deep speaker pockets” if you use the term “going to Have” it means it’s not there yet but it’s coming in the future, if the bloody thing your talking about already has a feature, then say it’s GOT nice deep speaker pockets.
If you’re going to use the English language, at least do us the favour of using it correctly............... and stop talking so bloody fast too.
Hahahaha okay mate 🇺🇲
Why do Brits say ”bloody" all the bloody time? Dude, fucking chill.
It isn't that big of a deal bro, you're just angry for no reason. Idk if you realize this but there are hundreds maybe thousands of differences in English depending on where you live, so calm down bro.
Pipe down you nancy brit, or we'll beat you again...
First worry about taking back your country from rapaceous inbreeds and socialists/globalists.
Ok. I keep seeing/hearing Revzilla employees say long oval fits most people in the American market.
That seems a bit dubious given that this is not a, shall we say, homogeneous society.
What data are the basis for this assertion?
Generally it's intermediate oval that fits most of the American market, and we know this based on sales data and additional research that some of the helmet manufacturers have done. -DrewZilla
No need this.
If you hit your head over 100kmh/h you're neck will give up.
So buy some helmet for 150-250 and enjoy your life.
Ofcoz if you can afford it then buy it .
beregi robert good thing none of the racers ever top 100 Khm the track would be littered with dead bodies.
