I own same helmet for 1 year and I'm not satisfied with it. Helnet is too loud, wind protection is so bad, no need for ventilation to open. Ventilation switch cover can come off very easily so you can lose it while putting it in case or smth... Also sunscreen button didn't work well, sometimes it won't come back so i need to stop to move it manually and to make it work somehow. And the peak side screw unmounted at 150kmh and peak blocked my vision. Also zip tie isn't long enough so it happens that it irritates my throat. I would say that it isn't worth it's price.
Totally agree. This is the first helmet of the 4 i owned before that I really hated. Way noisier than expected, plus the peak shakes a lot even at lower speeds (like 120 kmh) with plenty of wind protection from the bike (i have a super tenere 1200), making everything vibrate a lot, affecting your vision of the road (shaky) and increasing the impact of the helmet’s weight on your neck. I also agree with the zip tie, too short, very uncomfortable on the throat. Overrated and overpriced.
The sunscreen it worked for two weeks, now I have to put it up. Minus for an otherwise decent helmet.Otherwise, I like it, the gimmick with the removable front is probably mostly a gimmick.Satisfied with my purchase! Comfortable, quiet (compare with LS2 Pioneer) Guess everything is quiet against it;) also a heavenly comfortable helmet and light.New bowl is heavier, no problem for me, as I wears a helmet at work.Despite the defect, I can recommend this helmet, from a convenience perspective, not crashed into it, yet :) so safe, no idea, read on!Stylish, and without screen, damn comfortable!

That is a shame about the helmet's sun visor. However, it's good to hear you've enjoyed the rest of N70-2 X so far, and it definitely does well in terms of versatility with a huge number of riding options. Thanks for letting us know how you found the helmet, we appreciate it! How have you found the Nolan for ventilation?
on the side of the visor switch..you can lubricate the cable that controls the sunvisor.....i used just an extremely slight amount of vegetable oil...applied with a toothpick...you see the cable when you look directly into the helmet.....also check the visor is in properly...and the padding is not touching the visor..
Had mine for a year now drop down sun visor barley works constantly rattling I need to push it back up. Had a nolan x551 before this for 5 years great helmet but this n 70 2 x I can comfortably say it a shit helmet.
It definitely is a shame. There are often different graphics options between Europe and the US, but Nolan isn't the only company to do this. Thanks for the comment! Have you been looking at any other Nolan helmets?
Thanks for letting us know how you found the helmet, we appreciate it! In this case the higher weight makes sense considering the polycarbonate shell construction and the additional peak, though it will also depend on the shell size. Besides the weight how did you find the N70-2 X?
Hi Auldain, thanks for your comment. As with most helmets, it is possible to change the inner lining. Note that with use, the lining on the sides may sag a bit.
@@Championhelmets Thanks. I was aware replacement liners are available but my query was specifically regarding the adjustment to the cheek pads. The correct helmet size for me is Medium but I find the cheek pads that come standard, press too strongly on my jaw area. So I need to install thinner pads. Is that possible?
@@tengis777 That does make sense considering the Bullitt's main focus is on style while the N70-2 X is built for touring and adventure riding, which usually sees more noise isolation. Thanks for the reply! If you find you have any questions, we're always happy to help
@@Championhelmets I just tried it on the other day. It feels more comfortable than other adv helmets that I've tried, especially the non-modular ones. But, I'm a beginner, just searching for mai first helmet now so, what do I know? Also noticed, as it only has 2 sizes of shell, that even the L one makes me look like I have a giant head. I noticed my instructor, also has one of these.
While the Nolan N70-2 X is meant to bridge both adventure and touring riding, given the feedback we've received on the helmet we'd see it as more of an adventure helmet. For full touring with a Goldwing, we'd go with either the touring version of the helmet, the Nolan N70-2 GT, or something like the Schuberth C4 Pro, which will give you added benefits like better noise isolation and long-distance comfort. Thanks for the question! What are your thoughts on the Nolan helmet?
@@tkgaming2994 It's correct, the accessories are removable. The only reason the GT version of the helmet may be better is because it is built with touring in mind. Either way both will still be fine, and it's perfectly fine to choose the N70-2X for touring riding. If you have any further questions, we're always happy to help!
Champion Helmets yes brother I have bmw 1200 and iam finding a which I can use for both purpose on road and off-road and also I can use Goldwing type bike
This helmet sports only one legal safety certification-the DOT from the US, but unfortunately not the ECE 2206 from Europe. What do you think about the helmet?
Great review as you always do on all products. Now I am convinced about this helmet quality and functions. Going to my local dealer shortly to see if it fits my head O:)). Cheers
@@Championhelmets The different possibilities on how to use the helmet. Jet and full face. As I get older I found that I need more air! Then the easy way to remove the visor/peaks and chin bar. Then most importantly the Nolan quality. I have seen the same model available with the emergency braking light. Is it available on this model as an option? Thank you.
Having all the different options, is definitely helpful, and yes, this helmet does take the Nolan N-Com ESS brake light. Though it is sold separately similar to a communication system
@@Championhelmets right now im in the research face of gear, since ill be a first time rider so safety and funtionality are big. This review shot the nolan to the top three on the list.
There should be no need to size up with the Nolan since it's fairly true to size. However, it's always good to double check and measure your head against the size chart for the helmet. What do you think of the helmet?
Hi, We don't have any footage of the riding but the idea we got was that the helmet had some pretty strong ventilation and was pretty stable without the peak. Certainly not as strong as a premium helmet but still a comfortable helmet. What kind of riding would you use this helmet for the most? Because this really is an everything kind of helmet
@@Championhelmets I'd be riding peak-off, and mostly low speed cruising. It's hot all year round where i live, and i'm glad i watched your other videos before i actually bought an N100-5
This is not a review, this is a helmet tutorial, a little bit dissapointing judging by the title of this video

Is it good to buy in xl size because this helmet has lot of weight
If the weight is an issue, i recommend you to find a lighter helmet. Especially because you need a bigger size.
Had mine for a year now drop down sun visor barley works constantly rattling I need to push it back up. Had a nolan x551 before this for 5 years great helmet but this n 70 2 x I can comfortably say it a shit helmet.
Great to see Some nola reviews
all the cool Nolan helmets are NOT in America, this one is NOT one of them... damn!!
Nice video, got a new subscriber
It definitely is a shame. There are often different graphics options between Europe and the US, but Nolan isn't the only company to do this. Thanks for the comment!
Have you been looking at any other Nolan helmets?
Nice video, definitely like the Nolan helmets!
Whats it like on the highway at speed while wearing the peak?
While weating the peak you will obviously lose some stability at speed. It will be much more stable with the peak removed.
its heavy, 1.9 Kg
Thanks for letting us know how you found the helmet, we appreciate it! In this case the higher weight makes sense considering the polycarbonate shell construction and the additional peak, though it will also depend on the shell size.
Besides the weight how did you find the N70-2 X?
Can you get replacement liner with thinner cheek pads? Or is it possible to adjust the thickness of the cheek pads that come with the standard liner?
Hi Auldain, thanks for your comment. As with most helmets, it is possible to change the inner lining. Note that with use, the lining on the sides may sag a bit.

Good review.i like it. Thumbs up
Thanks for the feedback, we appreciate it! What are your thoughts on the Nolan helmet?
Got one. Removed the peak for city and highway use. Installed the B901L R Very happy with it.
Great to hear you're enjoying the N70-2 X!
How have you found the helmet's performance on the highway?
@@Championhelmets More streamlined and quieter on the highway compared to my Bell Bullit. And much cooler in traffic because of all the vents.

Thanks for the reply!

Is it possible to change cheek pads on this helmet?

Thanks for the clarification, in that case the 70-2X would be the better option between the two.

No problem. How would you ride with this helmet?
is this helmet dot and ece approved?

@@Championhelmets thank you very much
no info whatsoever on parts weight
The helmet is weighed at about 1:25 and it weighs a little bit over 1750 grams.
@@Championhelmets Saw that. What about peak and chin weight?
Hi, just wondering do we need to up sizing the size? Because usually, I’m wearing full face helmet. Thanks in advance
There should be no need to size up with the Nolan since it's fairly true to size. However, it's always good to double check and measure your head against the size chart for the helmet.
