A replacement liner gave it a new lease of life however I recently discovered there is a legal issue with my third party vehicle insurance if I have an accident wearing a non Japanese approved helmet.

That is, one with a sticker saying this helmet meets safety standards for Japan. I thought it best I do something and brought the replacement of my N43 forward. Since I am in the land of many famous helmet manufactures I naturally went to look over all their wares. And despite the pricing for Japanese made helmets here being much better than Australia I came back to preferring the successor to my existing helmet – the Nolan N44. Nolan N44 helmet review first appeared on Motorcycle Paradise October 2016 The main thing that kept me wearing a Nolan is the huge view angle their helmets have compared to the others. Your side vision is significantly wider compared to normal helmets and your forward vision is unlimited. Once you get used to this it is very hard to wear other helmets that restrict your vision. When I used to swap from my N43 to my Shark RSR2 Carbon I previously owned I noticed the two blind spot areas either side from the restricted vision on the conventional Shark helmet. Having the extra level of vision is to me a safety element when I ride.

When I rent a helmet overseas like I did recently in Spain and Sicily I immediately noticed the closed in feeling both helmets conveyed to me despite being quality items in their own right. The second thing I like with these helmets is the massive venting systems which make these excellent air flow helmets since I tend to get very hot wearing conventional helmets. If you don’t wear earplugs then I would not recommend you look at these helmets because good venting equals more wind noise but seriously if not wearing ear plugs then you are already causing permanent irreversible damage to your hearing with even quietest helmets as the noise level when riding at highway speed on any helmet exceeds the db level that will cause damage. Both these helmets are modular. The chin section can be removed to convert them into jet style helmets. The N44 can further be converted into adventure style helmet as it comes with a peaked sun visor but that requires the removal of the normal screen and use of goggles.

I do not think it was designed primarily for that sort of use, rather most people wear these as jet helmets. Everything seems slightly different to my N43 pictured above with its chin section removed.  The N44 has a redesigned visor with vent which I hope will be good in the rain. It comes with pinlock visor as well in the box which is surprising and a generous free item. The top vents have changed from the large passive vent on the N43 (note mine is the N43 ‘Air’ version) to three large air intakes on the N44. Lucky I have a windscreen on the FJR, these might fill with bugs otherwise. The internal tinted sun visor has a different lever and it comes down a little lower then the N43 which is nice. It also has one touch button to retract automatically by spring loaded mechanism. The finish is very nice and everything has a solid feel and overall you get a sense of high quality. There is a place to install the Nolan NCom system still. The chin section is revised and has two winglets either side and mesh fitted underneath.

Not entirely sure if this is for reduction of noise or turbulence since with the FJR screen up I am well protected from the elements but I will expand on this in my long term update in a couple of months. I chose white again because as talked about in my be safe be seen article people really notice white helmets while black ones blend into the tarmac. Also while I toyed with getting the fluro yellow one it remains that police here wear white helmets and ride same model bike as me so if that helps give me an edge in being noticed and not hit by a car then I’ll take it. Liner is very plush, nicer perhaps than the N43 but not say Shark or Arai helmet soft however I find those get hotter against my face where as a slightly more open weave of the Nolan breathes better. Same ratchet style fastener rather then double D ring. Having used so many different brands of rental helmets I adapt to either system without giving it a second thought. The N44 has the DOT and European ECE safety certificate.

So far no rating on the SHARP test site but given a leading engineer from the Birmingham University has cast doubt over their impact testing perhaps need to rethink the current focus on helmet shells. Helmets need to reduce the G force transferred to the wearer upon an impact. There hasn’t been significant innovation in this since Bell put a polystyrene liner into their Star range of helmets in 1968. We still rely on foam polystyrene as a liner to reduce the impact speed as our brains can only survive modest sudden deceleration. The shell of a helmet also needs to absorb some of the impact. It is engineered with enough flex and give to dissipate some of the energy yet be strong enough to stay intact. That’s a difficult balance while also remaining light and thin. The people pushing the stronger harder shell must be better notion are overlooking the trade off is harder shell absorbs less G force so the wearer might end up worse off. I really would love to see a breakthrough in helmet safety regarding reduction in G force in impacts but for now all you can do is choose a quality brand and product that fits you well. 

So anyway how is the N44 on the road. I will give initial impressions then return to this post again later. It is comfortable for sure. I’d say a little quieter than the N43 but this is just a small round town ride. Stability seems fine and weight seems about same as the N43 which was not as light as something like my RSR2 Carbon but not heavy like a flip up modular helmet either, just average. I will refresh all this more after my upcoming big tour. I wish I had got the light tint main visor. I may end up getting one like I had on the N43 but will try the clear on my next tour see how it goes. So far all good. Update after 17 day tour First the bad, the visor fogs up terribly in cold or rain and the new bigger visor vent flows very little air and is weak design point compared to the original which with just a slit in the visor managed to flow enough air to clear fog quickly yet not become a cold draft. Even applying anti-fog spray I had terrible fogging, the visor seems to be totally ineffective.

I will have to use the pinlock visor on future tours which adds another layer of plastic to look through that I did not want. I have bought another brand of anti-fog spray to see if perhaps my existing one had passed by its shelf life perhaps. The operation of the main visor however is great, I can position it at a slightly open level unlike the N43. The top helmet main vents never completely seal closed thus in cold weather there is a very slight bit of cold air leaking in, this could be a real problem if on a naked or adventure bike. Behind my screen the affect so far has not been too bad but like the visor this is disappointing. In heavy rain this lead to water entry as well. After a 1/2 day in heavy rain the helmet was quite wet inside. The old N43 even in full day of rain was never like this. I can only think I will need to tape over the vents if I strike a lot of rain on future tour which is not good. The vent operation in warm weather however is excellent flowing considerable air more cooling affect than the N43 venting.
