Who stocks Nolan N102s in Auckland?

**Pogo2** · 3rd July 2008, 18:03

Went to buy one at Motomail this afternoon. Lurked in the helmet section for 10-15 mins and the three guys behind the counter were having a great chat. I was the only one in the shop and would have expected a little service. Walked out in disgust. The second time in 1 week that this has happen where I have been completely ignore. I'm will no longer shop there. IMHO the service at Motomail has degraded significantly. Moan over.

Anyway after a silver one size L. Let me know if you stock and I'll come and buy it.

Cheers

Google is your friend...

its the the next model from 102... that major difference is that the sun visor is and inner visor so you have the lid flipped and still have your sun visor...

I believe it is lighter and a little quieter... I Still waiting for some one to stock in NZ....

the attitude was deplorable. When I enquired about the size he asked me if there was one on the shelf. Then leisurely told me he could get one by Monday. Quite interesting as when I dealt with Chris a few weeks ago he said that he could get one the following day.

So I said OK I will buy one elsewhere.

Reply was "ok , bye" No real effort to recover the sale.

Had the manager been there I would have said something but like alot of customers I vote with my feet.

Bugger Auckland in fact bugger New Zealand buy one from the US.

I bought exactly what you want - a silver 102 in large a few weeks back from a US mail order outfit. Paid the equivilent of about NZ$370 and not the $599 the retailer asks for here. That included the postage and was with me 8 days after I ordered it. NZ prices - Someone is ripping someone off!
Good luck with your quest.

I must agree, got a new titanium N102 off ebay eight months back and had it delivered within the week for under NZ$300 all up (the NZ$ was worth a little more back then). Google and a Visa card is your friend

ahh I see. Your fist post craftily omitted all these details......
The Nolans have to come from New Plymouth and the trucks are off the job tomorrow so maybe monday was a safer bet than telling you tomorrow and then not coming thru?.

I also recommend buying from oversea's. I needed a brake lever for my Ducati. Genuine one from Ducati shop $199.00 Taiwanese one from Ducati shop $80.00 They had neither in stock of course. Pair of quality red anodised levers from the UK NZD $78.00 including shipping and delivered in a week.

I'm all for supporting local businesses but not to the point of getting ripped that bad. The world is now a smaller place thanks to the internet.

Nolan 103.....

**Littlewheels** · 3rd July 2008, 21:42

I couldn't get my size on ebay, but contacted the seller and had a new N102 in silver XS for NZ$444 (includes shipping)within 10days. This was last month saved NZ$150+.
definitely worth looking around for items worth that much. If I fitted another size such as L I would have saved even more.
good luck
recommend them highly www.hondaeastsuperstore.com

Major difference is Bluetooth Stereo in the N103 instead of mono.

Unfortunately the N103 isnt on the market just yet August maybe.

I just imported my own N102 with a basic kit and Bluetooth kit for about $400 less than the best price quoted here. Including GST.

Delivery was 10 days to my door

I'm sure you'll get a good price from them for the N103 when it is avalible too.
