While the Bell Rogue and the Scorpion Covert Helmets stand alone in different ways, they’re set apart as two of the more unique DOT approved lids on the market. We'll take a look at each of these cruiser style helmets as we look at the Bell Rogue vs. the Scorpion Covert.

The Rogue was first on the scene, debuting a few years ago but right now, they're both available in similar colors - each offering a Matte Black and a Camo look. This could easily change, as Bell has offered variations of the Rogue in the past and the Covert is much more recently on the market.

Neither Helmet is a true full face helmet - they're both DOT approved only as half helmets - but the Covert does give more of that appearance if that’s what you’re looking for. The majority of riders will buy these helmets to wear fully constructed, because that's simply how they look best and what separates them from the competition. So while their versatility is a definite bonus, we'll mostly compare the two fully assembled.

First up, price - the Bell Rogue currently retails at about $250 in either design while the Covert comes in $210 for the base model and $230 for the camo look. The Rogue is 5 oz. lighter than the Covert, which makes sense as it doesn't offer quite the same coverage. While the Rogue is a 2 in 1 helmet, the Covert has 3 wearable options.

As far as features go, the Bell has a couple things that the Scorpion doesn't. Integrated speaker pockets come in handy and overall the Rogue provided a bit more comfortable fit. The detachable muzzle is also adjustable - so you can move it closer or further to your face as needed.

The Covert has a slightly longer list of unique features - the integrated visor is perhaps the most important and the helmet ships with both a clear and a dark drop down visor. The Covert also has a vent on the forehead for just a little more airflow and noticeably offers full face coverage - again, vs. the more open style of the Rogue.

You won't take either of these helmets out to the track - they're designed with cruisers in mind. As such, if you get much over 50 MPH you'll experience a decent bit of noise. They both move air pretty well and if you're deciding between the two a major factor will be whether you want that full face coverage of the Scorpion Covert or prefer a more open to the elements feel.

Ultimately, as with plenty of motorcycle gear out there, it comes down to style. Which do you prefer and what's going to fit your look? At a relatively similar price range, decide what features work best for you and your bike - either way you can't go wrong with a Rogue or a Covert.
