| | Posted : 08 May 2015 - 00:57 Post title : Nolan N-44 Helmet | | | Now that the cooler weather has set in down here I'm looking to add to my helmet collection a Nolan N-44, they say it's a 6 in 1 helmet and very easy to convert from full face to open face.
Does anyone have one of these and if so what is your opinion?

I came from Nolan 3/4 helmet so it was an easier transition than going to full face. One criticism is , it is supposed to be loud as far as wind notice but I have not experienced that. I like the sunscreen below the shield. The only thing I suggest is that it is snug and if you order online maybe order one size up or try one on somewhere. In needed a XXL for the 3/4 but 3x for the N-44 since I have a big head. I've yet to take a long trip but will do a couple this summer so I will know more if it is good for the long haul. I ordered mine from Revzilla.

Like to see your review when you get it.

| | Posted : 09 May 2015 - 15:07 Post title : Re: Nolan N-44 Helmet (Re: VABird) | | | I read plenty of reviews of people that had them and that's why ordered a size larger. Plus I went to dealers to try on full face and modular helmets and all of them seemed more snug than my old 3/4. Revzilla has a pretty easy return policy. the main rule is not to wear it on a ride. So I was walking around the house taking it on and off and trying the different configurations, like chin bar off and on etc.. My dog was looking at me real weird when I was walking around with a helmet on indoors.

What I like about it is the less chlostaphobic feeling and the better vision than a traditional full face. I wore it exclusively as open face for a years or so, but now I'm actually liking the extra protection from the chin guard.
It's sold and reviewed at Revzilla as well.

Found it on the recommendation of this site allforharley.com
