I bought one for my GF. It's not a bad helmet, but I don't think it's quite as good as the helmet harbor review makes it sound. I would rank it below the Scorpion EXO 400 and 700 for quality, noise, and fit-n-finish. The SparX is definitely lightweight.

well I got the helmet its a no go
The thing has a huge orange stripe oposite the black one there is no picture of it anywhere only with a black stripe its not in the description. the people were nice and exchanged it I got the sparx s -07 torino black instead.they are the same helmet just different graph. The helmet is light and has a nice fit it also seals well and came with a light synthetic bag and ear plugs the torino is 98$ delivered

I wear a sparx. The rep brought them in to show and I had to own one. The pricing is pretty great for the helmet you get in return. all have earplugs with them, mine had a tinted shield with the clear shield as well. Construction is good enough for the price and its fit and noise level are great for me.
They are actually an offshoot from KBC trying to get into that 100-150 dollar helmet market.

And the helmet replacement plan is pretty standup, I dont see shark or arai or anyone doing that deal.

I agree I just couldn't spend the 400 plus right now I am happy with my purchase.
