Hi Kion,
The sizing should be the same, as there were no changes in their grading. There was a running change in the Cayenne Pro jacket in regards to the collar hook system, but it should not have affected the size. At least you can be please that your gear feels a little loose, as most folks find their gear shrinks over the winter months.

I have an Olympia AST jacket and Rev'it Dakar pants. I like both but have to say after 3 years of heavy use the Olympia jacket has stood up better and would seem to offer better abrasion protection. The breathable water proofing on the Rev'It gear seems to be more breathable though.

Do you have any information on the Com gear for the Nolan N104 helmet? Price, availability, specs, etc?

Thanks

We have not yet been provided official details on the Nolan N-Com Bluetooth Kit B4, however this is what the distributor was able to communicate. The ETA on the B4 is mid to late February, about the same time the Nolan N104 will launch. There is no confirmed pricing yet, but will likely be in the ball park of what the Nolan Basic Kit and the Nolan N-Com E-Box Bluetooth 2 Kit cost now. Please note the new B4 will be a complete kit and the Basic Kit will not be needed. The B4 will also be equipped with a FM receiver that will store up to 5 pre-set stations the user will control through the Nolan website.

When we have more information and confirmation on pricing, we will update our website.

This is my 2nd winter with the Navigator jacket. What a deal! I love everything about it but I find myself wishing it had the 2-way sleeve zips found in the Sand model. Tucking in the gauntlets for wet weather riding is a real pain. Would a sleeve zipper retro-fit on the Navigator be feasible?

Making alterations to motorcycle apparel is typically a bad idea, especially on technical apparel like the REV'IT! Navigator Jacket. I would not recommend attempting the retro-fit.

Hey guys, interested in picking up a set of heated glove liners this year in order to get finger heat while still using a secondary protective over-glove.

I'm checking out the products you offer by both Powerlet and Gerbings.



I like what I'm reading about the Powerlet product, however, I'm not too keen on that power connect interface on top. Seems like it might interfere with a jacket cuff or be lumpy and uncomfortable. Any experience on this?

The Gerbings glove liner has a plain old wire connect, which I like, however, I'm interested in trying the new infrared tech of the Powerlet glove.

Ideally, I was planning on a gauntlet style protective over-glove, something by REV'IT or Dainese. Not sure how that power interface is going to work with another glove on top, esp a gauntlet glove? Seems like a second shortie glove would be worse, cuff interference wise, anyway?

I'm a big fan of the far infrared heating in the Powerlet products and have one of their jacket liners. I spoke with a colleague of mine who uses the glove liners along with a pair of REV'IT! Kelvin Gloves. On the Powerlet glove liner, the connection falls below the wrist bone, so if you are using a glove with a decent size gauntlet, you should be fine.

Thanks for the shout-out; it's always a pleasure to help! Your helmet's already been packaged up and will be heading out on the big brown box truck in a couple hours so you should have it just in time for some weekend riding. Enjoy your new lid!

Here's to Eric for helping me sort out the sizing issues for my Held WarmnDry gloves. Finally found a pair that fits and they are working out great so far.

Hey Guys,
I'm looking to move from my Arai XD to my first modular helmet and don't really want to break the bank based on it being my first. So was considering the Nolan N90. My XD is a small, but haven't taken a tape measure to my head as yet.
I use a Cardo Scala Q2 on my XD. Would this be able to fit on the Nolan and would you also suggest a small?

Hi Daryll,
Nolan makes a solid modular helmet, and they've been making modular helmets for a very long time. Both the N90 and the N103 are good places to start. You may have also heard this year they are launching the Nolan N104, which is pretty sleek. Between the N90 and the N103, the N103 has a few superior features for only dollars more, such as a stainless steel latching system and a balanced chin bar that allows you to ride at low speeds with the chin bar up. The N90 chin bar sits slightly forward when open and is not as well balanced. Both the N90 and the N103 are specifically designed to work with the NCom system, but you should be able to use your Cardo Scala Q2 with no problems.
Cheers,
Ali
