Nolan N100E flip-up helmet, some information

 The original Nolan N100 flip-up helmet was introduced in 1998.

The N series helmet are made of lexan, a high end polycarbonate. And the n100 series is a super popular modular helmet.

The Nolan N100E helmet was available around 2004-2005 according to AI. But I think it's released more like 2002. E stands for electronics so you easily can use a intercom / headset.

Nolan N 100 E size L weigh: 1680 gram.

Made in Italy.

Nolan later progressed through models such as the N101, N102, N103, and N104.

The ECE 22.05 motorcycle helmet safety regulation came into effect around the year 2000, replacing older standards and serving as the primary certification for two decades before the introduction of the stricter ECE 22.06 standard in 2020. 


Yes, the Nolan N100E helmet is DOT Approved, meaning it meets U.S. Department of Transportation safety standards for road use, a fact often highlighted in listings for the modular helmet alongside its Italian craftsmanship and flip-up design. 



Nolan N100E Helmet. Nolan N100E is the flip-up full-face helmet characterized by:- SMART LIFT: it allows the chin guard to open by using only the left lever; - Quick release buckle; - Ready for the Nolan Fog Resistant system (NFR) and the Vision Protection System (VPS). Front air intake: designed as a one-piece structure integrated with the JSW system, it allows two different opening positions and can be operated with only one hand. Chin guard air intake: Chin guard opening and visor mechanism. This helmet is equipped with an innovative chin guard opening system which integrates three different functions: A. Chin guard rotation movement with elliptical trajectory, which minimizes the frontal area, with chin guard in the open position, and prevents accidental closing; B. Automatic visor return, when opening the chin guard;C. Double Action: 1) visor mechanism: 3 different visor opening positions; 2) quick visor disassembly/assembly, without removing the chin guard; 3) visor lock: it avoids accidental visor opening.
