Scorpion announced a major strategy shift for their best-selling EXO-R410 full face helmet at the AIMExpo last week by lowering the MSRP of the R410 to $129.95.
“This price adjustment redefines what riders and dealers can expect from an entry level helmet,” says Jayson Wickenkamp, Director of Sales and Marketing. “We did an extensive amount of research before making this critical strategic decision. Our dealers and our customers were asking for an unprecedented Quality/Value proposition; at $129 the R410 stands apart as the most premium helmet in this price category. Scorpion has a long history of offering exceptional value to their customers, we are confident our dealers and customers will find the R410 to be an unmatched value due to it’s superior build-quality and features.”
Per Scorpion’s advertising embargo dates the price changes officially on November 1st, 2014; but dealer pricing has already been adjusted to allow dealers to start managing their inventories efficiently.
