Nolan Helmuts, Good or Bad??

i have my eye on a new helmet maybe...
whats the consensus on Nolan?
i kinda like the stoner repica...
but then theres those flip up ones like BMW ones, HJC make them too now, look half decent too..
and removable liner.

Not used one, but have seen the flip-up ones (fairly heavy). They should become more popular if Stoner is using one.

Their only problem is they don't sound fashionable.

I've got a nice HJC if your interested...

Apparently some of the BMW helmets are amazing. A friend has a BMW Sport Integral which is one of the quietest lids i have sampled. Exxie though.

I had a look at the Nolan X-lite yesterday in at Bike Barn. Paul has them on special for $400. They look to be a top quality lid. The visor mechanism is simple looking and appears to solve the noise problem with flush mountings. neat. Unfortunately as with most Helmets, they don't fit me.

I had a Nolan X-Lite and it was great...

Not sure about the stocko Nolan's though...

I've got a nice HJC if your interested...

my heads too big, i saw it, and thought of my mrs, but then i saw its yellow, and she dont like yellow... haha bloody women...
secretly thats why Juss wants to get rid of it...

Jus likes it..
Yellow / orange is a good safety colour you know....

and its cheap....

when she goes on the 10, where does she put her feet??

or do they go on the Race stand bobbins?? hehe

I've been requested to put the pegs back on and remove the seat cowl...
for occasional rides at least...

As an alternative, I'm looking for a bike for her....
a bit more expensive option but its better than stuffing the look of my 10...

I have had a Nolan in the past
it was good...not really noisier than others at the time
however
the current ones don't fit my head (hence my AGV)


hth

yeah my mate with a zx6 had a stoner replica nolan and said it was a bloody good helmet. he now has an AGV but only cuz he wanted a rossi rep

I have a nolan X-lite & yeah it is a good helmet & no whistle wind noise

X-lite are very good the X901 has the flush visor and was very quiet. I still have mine in the cupboard but its the wrong colour for my bike now.

I have a Nolan N61 - not a bad helmet, can`t get an iridium visor for it but otherwise it does the job. Not too much wind noise, comfortable and the visor seals well ... thumbs up from me

...the current ones don't fit my head (hence my AGV)

just look at ur head, wonder anything fits it.
