Scorpion EXO-Combat II

By Jack Rydell

The Scorpion EXO-Combat II is categorized by its manufacturer as an open-face helmet with a removable mask. It is not treated here as a protective full-face design.

Who should consider it

Riders deliberately considering an open-face design with a sun visor and removable face mask.

Features and trade-offs

Scorpion lists a retractable SpeedView sun visor and speaker pockets. Its description presents the mask as a way to reduce exposure to debris and weather, not evidence of a protective chin bar.

The mask should not be treated as a protective full-face chin bar. If lower-face coverage is a priority, include a genuine full-face option in the fitting.

What to check at a fitting

Try the mask attached and removed while stationary. Check sun-visor clearance and strap adjustment, without using the mask as evidence of chin protection.

Start with the manufacturer’s size chart and keep the helmet on long enough to identify pressure points. Follow the model’s fitting instructions and repeat the retention checks after any approved adjustment. Record the size and padding configuration that works for you.

Use the helmet fit checklist before comparing accessories.

Two alternatives to try

  • AGV K1 S (EU). European riders seeking the K1 S’s thermoplastic full-face layout and comparing a simple helmet-and-accessory package.
  • LS2 FF800 Storm II (EU). Riders building a European full-face shortlist around an internal sun visor and a straightforward touring setup.

Compare these three helmets. Keep the version labels visible when considering models from different markets.
