Finally, if you’re after a modular helmet for your sportsbike, how about the AGV Sport Modular. No. And it comes with an anti-fog pin-lock insert.
From raw materials through to final inspection and packaging, the entire production process is carried out in-house at Nolan.
But overall, air flow is excellent in both versions of the N70-2. That means that we can get up to six different configurations from this helmet. Got it from the Helmet Shop, including the stuff above, $330 bottom line, at my door.
There’s also space to fit Nolan’s emergency stop light system (ESS) if you fancy having a brake light flashing on the back of your lid for extra safety. It’s a SHARP 4 star modular with chin bar that rotates to the back of the head – and comes with a Pinlock too. Overall though, the shield system’s spot-on. So, we can define it as a modular helmet with removable chin instead of folding one and this makes the segment of other competitors and even its own brand for its uniqueness in design. Actually, the N70-GT has few accessories on the Nolan site -- maybe they're already phasing it out?) And the top vents take air through the helmet shell and into a couple of internal air channels as well as through lots of holes in the liner that delivers air onto the head. And if you do take it off for a while, maybe when you’re road riding, Nolan provides blanking plates in the box to fill up the holes.
Schuberth’s C4 flip-front helmet: great for touring and sportsbike riders. All these configurations and options make several helmets in one.

And of course, Nolan sells both versions of the N70-2 with a Pinlock in the box. his is Nolan’s top-of-the range road crossover which maintains and enriches the much-appreciated characteristics of its predecessor, the N44. For the N70-2 X there’s the Decurio (six colorways) and Grandes Alpes (seven).
Italian helmet makers, Nolan, have become kings of the truly versatile helmet. Can’t decide which product to buy? According to several owners it’s got very good aero properties too – creating very little lift and buffeting, at sensible speeds at any rate. All right reserved. The Nolan N70-2 GT and X are fantastic helmets that the vast majority of owners seem to really like. The mechanism of the screen allows a quick removal without tools, something very important when you consider that anchor point serves both the screen and the visor. Finally, and like all shields (main and sun visors) the sun visor’s made from polycarbonate so should shield you from 95%+ of UV rays by default. Nolan has never subjected their helmets to Snell testing. And looking at the stats where the average modular weighs almost 3.75lbs (1.7kgs) it is only a couple of ounces heavier so shouldn’t be a problem for most riders. Because it’s been ECE certified, that means it’s undergone full testing including that chin bar – which means the chin bar should provide all the protection of a full face.
It clicks into 3 positions on the way down – though I guess most of us will simply push it fully down in one go.
