NOTE: Shark Leathers Australia is not part of the scam and their company is a reliable good supplier I have purchased from many times without a problem Their offer is legitimate. The Nolan Helmets site is the SCAM one.

These are US$ prices on NOLAN site and Au$ on Shark Leathers Australia but click on currency on link page to select your own currency.

From the Nolan factory website itself so no scammers. Alternative similar prices from Shark Leathers Australia with just Au$9 postage and the free Bluetooth system.

NOLAN rate very highly on the UK SHARP helmet standards testing many are 4 out of 5 stars. and surprised the hell out of many including this bloke.

The N87 is Nolan's premium full-face helmet, chock-a-block with innovative technical details. Along with two outer shell sizes, the N87 features a face shield mechanism with tilting functionality that allows a greater extension of the area covered by the Pinlock fog-resistant shield and reduces the risk of accidental opening/closing as well as air infiltration. The Clima Comfort inner liner and cheek pads, newly designed, are made with double density micro-perforated fabrics. Comfort of the highest level, thanks to the Eyewear Adaptive system (designed for eyeglass wearers) and the wide perforated wind protector. The AirBooster ventilation system keeps the rider cool and dry.

Description

Nolan N-Com Basic Kit 2 MCS N Com accessories Helmet
A product specifically intended for bikers who own a Honda Goldwing / Harley Davidson. With the Basic Kit2 MCS, you can connect via cable to the audio system installed on your motocycle, so that you can hear all signals coming from the motorcycle directly in your helmet.

And that is not all: Basic Kit2 MCS also allows you to talk with your passenger (if connected to the motorcycle) in intercom mode through the intercom system of the same motorcycle.

Excellent audio quality even at top speeds; clear and crisp conversation thanks to the microphone that dampens external noise. Practical use is guaranteed: Basic Kit2 MCS is perfectly integrated inside compatible helmets, it is easy to install and can be transferred from one helmet to another.

I WOULD BE HIGHLY CAUTIOUS. THAT SITE DOES NOT HAVE A SSL CONNECTION.

There are quite a few sites out there that are 100% copies of bonafide sites - if it does not have SSL - it is highly likely these days to be an identity farm.
If teh discounts are a BLANKET "x"% it's an alarm bell too.
I have recently uncovered a shed load and have been collaborating with the Guardia Civil. 5 shut down so far.

I have just checked their "privacy notice". Text identical to those I have seen before. I WOULD NOT EVEN CONTACT THEM.

O well could always buy the cheapest item under $35 pay to test with Paypal and you are covered anyway.
 
IMO This is a serious problem right now. I have found a huge number of sites for bike gear all with the same keys - In all cases it's just too good to be true - so I contacted the mfrs directly as all the sites proport to be the mfrs site. One site really started me on this as it insisted on an insecure link - even saying it was necessary to guaranty my safety.

And as I have mentioned elsewhere most EU mfrs do not quote prices online for a reason.

EVERYBODY SHOULD ADD THE "HTTPS Everywhere" addon into their browser. HTTPS Everywhere
This is offered by a Digital Rights Movement. The EFF.

If the webpage does not start https:// - it is not encrypted - anything you type can be tracked. And is.

I do not know the distribution chain markups for the M/C industry.
I do know them from manufacturing cost, through base-line to retail in the Hunting sector.
Fashion goods do not count as they are based on, well, what is fashionable.
