New Features New Chinbar is extended for extra room and now can accept included chin curtain New Face shield now has intermediate open position, previous version was either opened or closed New locking pivot kit 6-in-1 design The New Nolan N43E Trilogy Helmet is a crossover design with quick-change accessories that allows for customized looks and functions for every ride.

Was interested in the N43 E Trilogy as it seemed a great idea; multiple helmets in one. On opening the box the helmet immediately impressed me with the deep, full paint, light weight, soft interior, and overall quality.
The N43 E fits my slightly round head very well with no pressure points. The sizing chart Revzilla provides was spot on based on my head measurement. I have wore it on 2 rides so far; I had it on for about 5 hours on 1 ride and had no issues with comfort. It is slightly louder than some helmets but not overly so. I may need to wear ear plugs. I ride behind a fairing so the N43E doesn't move a lot of air. The top vent moved some air. There is no lower venting. You must open the face shield to the first stop to get air. The first stop is too far open for use while riding as it interferes with you sight. However, it was unbearable hot even in 80 degree weather.
The view from the helmet is almost like wearing a 1/2 or 3/4 helmet and not a modular. The chin bar is not in your line of sight at all. Much better than full face or flip up I have tried on. No claustrophobic feeling wearing this helmet.
Overall I am happy with the N43E. It does what I want; the view of a 3/4 with the added protection of the chin bar just in case.... Sound is not overly loud, helmet is very comfortable, fits well and is true to size and shape. If you are looking for these unique features the N43 E is a great buy. High quality at a very reasonable price.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Replacement Faceshield for Nolan N43 / N43E Trilogy Helmets
 

Does the smoke or metallic silver face shields have the Pin Lock shield or the pins for the pin lock shield?

Interested in one of these shields to help with daytime riding. Interested to know if they come with or have the pin lock pins to add a pin lock shield. Also are the metallic shields good for daytime use? Do they block sunlight similar to a smoke shield. It was difficult to tell from the photos.

What Faceshields are available?

What smoked or other faceshields are available? Do the shields from the N43 fit the N43E?
