Recent purchase for Em, the Nitro was her pick out of all of the helmets in the store. She loved the look of the Nitro N501 Apex DVS helmet in chameleon blue. It will look good on her Gladius or Nige’s VFR, FZ6 and Interceptor.
Cut outs for a intercom make life a little easier when fitting comms.
For the price you cannot go wrong, and they look good!
The Nitro N501 Apex Analog full-face motorcycle helmet is an affordable, adaptable helmet with a surprising array of features. It offers a custom-designed multi-poly tech (MPT) constructed shell with a sophisticated ventilation system with a twin top vent with twin integrated rear exhaust ports, an easy open chin vent, and a rear spoiler to not only add airflow but aerodynamics. An integrated chin wind curtain is a highly convenient addition, with a fully removable colour-coded soft touch liner and cheek pads for optimum comfort. The micro-metric retention chin strap is fully adjustable for the perfect fit and security, and the N501 is ECE22.06 certified. The anti-scratch clear visor also features a DVS internal sun visor system which is ultra-easy to use and highly useful!
