I ordered this helmet yesterday.

It's probably as close to a full coverage helmet that I will get. I've had the same Nolan open face 3/4 helmet for 12 years. It finally took an accident to make me get a new one. That old helmet protected me just fine except for my chin which was scraped up. We'll see how this one does.

Well it was time for a new lid, 12 years
So how long before you quit using the removable chin bar


It's not speeding till you get pulled over.

Looks pretty nice to me, let us know how it works out. I'm due for a new one too.

Probably around 5 minutes.

I have the N43 and it is great. I think you will like it.

I really like my N43 and you'll find yourself using that chin bar more and more when the temps get cool.

It arrived yesterday. I love the color that matches my bike and all the features but even though I ordered a 3X it is very snug and the chin strap seems to dig in to my chin. My old N40 was a XXL. I may have to send it back and go to a mc shop and try them on.
