Product Information
Full details
The Nolan N120-1 Classico Modular Helmet is designed for adult riders seeking the versatility of a full-face helmet with the freedom of an open-face option. Its key benefit is the innovative flip-back chin guard technology, offering dual P/J homologation for safe riding in both configurations. A potential caveat is its weight, which may be noticeable on longer journeys. Key features include the advanced polycarbonate construction, N-Com readiness for communication systems, and the Liner Positioning Control for a customized fit.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
What does P/J homologation mean?
P/J homologation indicates that the helmet is certified to be used both as a full-face helmet (P) and as an open-face helmet (J), meaning the chin guard is safe to ride with up or down.
How do I clean the helmet's interior?
The inner lining is typically removable. Hand wash it gently with cold water and mild soap, then allow it to air dry completely. Do not use a washing machine or dryer.
Can I use any Bluetooth headset with this helmet?
The helmet is specifically 'N-Com Ready,' meaning it is designed to integrate seamlessly with Nolan's N-Com communication systems. While generic headsets might fit, optimal integration is with N-Com.
What is the weight of the Nolan N120-1 Classico?
The approximate weight is 1.670 g +/- 50 g for a size M. Weights may vary slightly depending on the size and specific configuration.
How does the Liner Positioning Control (LPC) work?
LPC is an internal adjustment mechanism that allows you to fine-tune the fit of the helmet liner, ensuring a more precise and comfortable fit tailored to your head shape.
Is the chin guard secure when flipped back?
Yes, the flip-back chin guard is designed to lock securely into the rear position, maintaining the helmet's aerodynamic profile and user comfort.
Troubleshooting
Chin guard is difficult to open or close
Ensure the mechanism is clear of debris. Lubricate the pivot points lightly with a silicone-based lubricant. Verify you are using the correct 'Dual Action' opening procedure as per the manual.
Helmet feels loose or shifts during riding
Adjust the Liner Positioning Control (LPC) for a tighter fit. Ensure the chin strap is properly secured and tightened.
Difficulty installing N-Com system
Refer to the specific N-Com installation guide for the N120-1. Ensure all components are correctly aligned and seated within the helmet's internal channels.
Fogging on the visor
Ensure the visor is fully closed. If the helmet is equipped with a Pinlock® anti-fog insert, check its seal and condition. Clean the visor regularly. Consider riding with the visor cracked open slightly at low speeds for ventilation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The N120-1 Classico comes ready to wear. If integrating an N-Com system, follow the specific instructions provided with the communication module for installation into the helmet's designated internal space. Ensure the chin guard is securely locked in either the full-face or open-face position before riding.

Care: Clean the outer shell with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
