Tmax underseat vs Scorpion Exo-Tech Evo

Post by Betty »

Just wondered if anyone has a XL Scorpion Exo-Tech Evo Flip up Helmet and does it fit under the seat of a Tmax 530DX 2018 ?

I'm sorry I can't help but if we did awards, your post would surely win "most niche question of the year"!

Perhaps if you could give dimensions one of our Tmax brethren could compare to their own lid?

Don't know if it helps or not but a large Shoei Neotec II (flip front) fits no problem.

As someone who owns a M Arai full face, I can't help you! There is obviously a decent amount of space for a full face helmet under there. I suspect the only problem will be if your helmet has large aero wings or peaks or something as the space is rather rounded. I had no problem with Schuberth flip-ups but that was on early Tmax versions.

Thanks for the replies i currently have a LS2 Vector XL Helmet and that needs to be in a certain position to fit,
I'll probably go for the Shoei Neotec as i've had one before but never thought it would fit in the Tmax 8-)

My Neotec 2 fits under the seat on my Mk3 Tmax 500, as does my Schuberth C4. I'd wager the 530 has more underseat space as the Mk3 is crap.

Well...maybe! The 530 onward space looks huge, but you can fit very little more in it - basically a helmet and gloves and odds &sods, just like older Tmaxs. The space is poorly arranged- the helmet has to go in a particular place where there is a well in the base, but that leaves wasted space around it, and the helmet goes in lengthwise rather than sideways, so more space is wasted.
