Default Nolan N 102

Has any one else out there purchased the new Nolan N 102 Helmet, and the N Com communication system. I have had my for nearly 6 months and would like to hear from others what they think.

I bought the Nolan N102 with the basic N-com kit about 1 month age. Firstly the helmet has a reasonably fit and finiish, though not anything compared to my full race rep Arai RX7 helmet, wich is just ace!
It seems like the locking system on the Nolan is good quality, end the rest of the helmet seems nice put together.
I think there is a lot of air moving about inside the helmet while on the move, and that is not comfortable in cold weather, but I bet it's gonna be nice when summer arriwes.
I was a little disappointed about the sound quality in the helmet. It was not top notch, and above 120-130 km/h the music drowns in the vindnoise.
But all in all i think it's a reasonable helmet at a reasonable price.

I would rate i 3½ stars out of five compared to my Arai RX7

Noe thats a pitty we love our helemts and the system my ife and I can easily communicate at 180 Kls an hour, maybe it has something to do with my higher screen as it is a bouble bubble with a touring lip and it does stop a lot of turbulance. We have used our for our last trip at X Mass and did over 5000 Klm and just couldnt fault it. As for the cold unfortunately our temps aer around 35 Degrees C but at X Mass time it was down to 8 Degrees C and I didnt feel cold inside the helmet

Noe, Hi I am referring back to a topic about the Nolan N 102 helmets and you mentioned your was very noisy. Well today I though mine has been getting noisy so I experimented with my hands over the helmet and found the under lip that goes around the back of the helmet was letting Wind / Air in so I ran a piece of electrical tape over the gap between the helmet and the guard and to my surprise it made a BIG difference so I need to pull the lining out and see whats going on.
