    Dual purpose helmets

    Hi all

    Does anyone know what options are available for dual purpose helmets?

    I know of the Arai Tour X but do other brands make something similar?

    Nolan used to make one called the Integrale but don't list it on their web site anymore.

    Thanks

    The Nolan was the N70,I have one and I'm pretty sure they are still available,atleast Motomail seem to have them.Not as flash,or expensive as the Arai.

    How much is the Arai? I need to get a new lid sometime and was thinking about one of them.

    One of the local shops stocks Nolan and they do stock the dual purpose helmet. I guess from that the importer is still bringing them in. Also it has been advertised in magazines relatively recently...

    Nolan N70 = $289.00 inc. Maybe a bit better for KB'ers.

    Lou how much for the Arai?

    Nolans have never suited me because they have no ear pockets and I hate the feeling of having my ears squashed. So far have stuck with HJC where my ears fit nicely into the helmets. I presume Arai wouldn't have this problem?
    Cheers
