Let me explain<\/span>\u2026<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

W<\/span>hen I shop for a motorcycle helmet<\/span>,<\/span>\u00a0I look for safety<\/strong>, comfort<\/strong>, look<\/strong> and lightness<\/strong>. The\u00a0<\/span>Nolan N40-5 Jet<\/i><\/strong>\u00a0has all these characteristics! And even at heatwave temperature<\/span>s<\/span>, ventilation is well suited to\u00a0<\/span>not suffocate<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>?<\/span>. Trust me<\/span>\u2026\u00a0<\/span>I tried this helmet\u00a0<\/span>under various weather conditions<\/span>, f<\/span>rom 17 to 42 degrees, from\u00a0<\/span>a bright\u00a0<\/span>sun to\u00a0<\/span>the\u00a0<\/span>rain.\u00a0<\/span>I did not get<\/span>\u00a0cold or hot! This helmet is ideal for all\u00a0<\/span>the\u00a0<\/span>weather conditions\u00a0<\/span>Mother Nature<\/span>\u00a0has for us!<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Made in Italy, a country renowned for the quality of<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>its\u00a0<\/span>products, this helmet lives up to my expectations. It is\u00a0<\/span>DOT<\/i><\/strong>\u00a0certified\u00a0<\/span>to meet\u00a0<\/span>North American<\/strong> safety standards but is not available<\/span>\u00a0ECE<\/span><\/i>\u00a0(European standards).<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”13833″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]It is a<\/span><\/span>lso available in four sizes from XS to L<\/span><\/span>\u00a0and in three colors (white, magnesium and flat black). I chose flat black.<\/span><\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”13834″ img_size=”full”][vc_media_grid initial_loading_animation=”none” grid_id=”vc_gid:1597950854381-350c0572-2cec-8″ include=”13845,13846,13847″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”The Shield” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:35|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css_animation=”bounceInLeft”][vc_column_text]The helmet<\/span><\/span>\u00a0has an ultra-wide shield<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/span>which provides excellent<\/span><\/span>\u00a0visibility on the road.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>It<\/span><\/span>\u00a0is\u00a0<\/span><\/span>resistant to\u00a0<\/span><\/span>scratch<\/span><\/span>es: this feature\u00a0<\/span><\/span>is a must\u00a0<\/span><\/span>since the<\/span><\/span>\u00a0helmet\u00a0<\/span><\/span>is<\/span><\/span>\u00a0exposed to\u00a0<\/span><\/span>variable and sometimes difficult<\/span><\/span>\u00a0conditions. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Another aspect that I find essential for a helmet is the<\/span><\/span>\u00a0vision protection system with multiple antifog adjustments, but especially\u00a0<\/span><\/span>sun<\/span><\/span>screen<\/span><\/span>\u00a0UV<\/span><\/span>.\u00a0 The\u00a0<\/span><\/span>Nolan N40-5 Jet<\/span><\/span><\/strong>\u00a0also has a built-<\/span><\/span>in, retractable smoke bezel; it is super-practical because I do not<\/span><\/span>\u00a0need to\u00a0<\/span><\/span>be\u00a0<\/span><\/span>burden<\/span><\/span>ed<\/span><\/span>\u00a0with a pair of sunglasses or even a second shield.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>Whether it is sunny or not, I am sure I have\u00a0<\/span><\/span>a good visibility.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”13835″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”The comfort” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:35|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css_animation=”bounceInLeft”][vc_column_text]After the safety, c<\/span>omfort is\u00a0<\/span>the feature I look for when I choose<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>a\u00a0<\/span>helmet. The\u00a0<\/span>Nolan N40-5 Je<\/strong>t<\/span><\/i>\u00a0is incredibly comfortable and light<\/strong><\/span>weight<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/span>Weighing 4,74 pounds<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0I can drive several kilometers without hurting my neck. Its lightness\u00a0<\/span>comes from the<\/span>\u00a0Polycarbonate Lexan<\/strong><\/span>, which composes it<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition, the\u00a0<\/span>Nolan N40-5 Jet<\/i><\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong>helmet offers thick<\/span>,<\/span>\u00a0super<\/span>–<\/span>comfortable cushion<\/span>s, a<\/span>ll detachable and washable<\/span>, as is the case for most helmets.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0The\u00a0<\/span>Polystyrene<\/span>\u00a0fabric is absorbent and\u00a0<\/span>allows air circulation.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”13836″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text]W<\/span><\/span>hen I talk a<\/span><\/span>bout comfort, I also\u00a0<\/span><\/span>talk about\u00a0<\/span><\/span>ventilation<\/strong>. This helmet is equipped with<\/span><\/span>\u00a0a<\/span><\/span> “climate control”<\/strong>\u00a0system and “<\/strong><\/span><\/span>A<\/span><\/span>irbooster<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span>T<\/span><\/span>echnology”<\/span><\/span><\/strong>:\u00a0<\/span><\/span>ventilation allows\u00a0<\/span><\/span>a good air circulation, and you stay<\/span><\/span>\u00a0dry.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>Excellent<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span>comfort<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span>because there is\u00a0<\/span><\/span>temperature and humidity control! Even\u00a0<\/span><\/span>in a temperature of\u00a0<\/span><\/span>42 degrees!<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”13837″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Finally<\/span><\/span>, I love<\/span><\/span>d<\/span><\/span>\u00a0the chin strap. It is simple,\u00a0<\/span><\/span>safe<\/span><\/span>, and easy to use. I lift the red clip and hop! I take off my helmet. It is much easier than a double<\/span><\/span>–<\/span><\/span>ring\u00a0<\/span><\/span>fastener<\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]In short, I am v<\/span>ery satisfied with my test of the\u00a0<\/span>Nolan N40-5 Jet<\/i><\/strong>\u00a0helmet<\/span>, and I appreciate its aerodynamic look.<\/span>\u00a0I highly recommend it.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
