Opinions are like a-holes...BUT I work at a helmet store and I see and test all kinds of helmets (my wife laughs 'cus I buy helmets like most women buy shoes). My personal favorite (fit, form, and function) is the new Suomy Vandal. But it's pricier than the Scorpion. The 700 isn't bad, but I think as Pabonne stated earlier the KBC TK8 is a better value (most of the same features and quite a bit cheaper too - some of the new graphics are pretty cool also - MSRP of about 140 bucks). Also, if you're staying under 250, give the Shark S650 a look - very comfy, ECE and DOT approved (if your Boehm-savvy), looks fantastic, and at 200 bucks a good deal. Anyhoo, just my .02.
Good luck with the lid - the important thing is wearing something on your noggin.
