Great Modular Helmet Buy

You guys are out of my helmet class. I have an HJC modular that I like especially for cold weather riding. Mine's the red one that is just about a perfect color match to my red GT. I put a Sena Bluetooth in it so it's linked to my phone, GPS and a friend who rides with me. I wish Sena had come out with their current system so that I could connect to more than one other bike at a time. I bought the current one to use as an intercom, phone, GPS, and linking to my CB so I can communicate with my Goldwing friends. As a bike to bike intercom it works great up to a bit more than a quarter mile, clear and plenty loud. Definitely line of sight at the Bluetooth frequency, won't work over the hill as a CB can.

I'm a big fan of the Nolan modulars, but for my scooter I like my N43e Trilogy, which allows multiple configurations, not just a jawpiece that opens up. Even better, with the jawpiece in place, it passes the ECE certification as a full-face helmet, something NONE of the other modular helmets can claim.

Unfortunately the N43e was discontinued and I find the replacement N44 too "fugly" a replacement...

FWIW, I have no connection to either company (other than being a Revzilla customer).

I bought this model in white back in August. Kind of wish I'd waited now because I have only worn it a few times. I go to the gym after work 4 days a week and just used an older HJC helmet I had so I wouldn't get the pads in my "good" helmet all sweat soaked.
 
Hmmmm... VERY tempting...
By the way, same choice of colors for the Nolan Hi-Viz helmets:

And WOW, the Schuberth's are actually CHEAPER, too! Now I need to compare the bluetooth accessories, as I can't just swap the unit in my current helmet into any of the new Nolans (they changed the design and it is incompatible with the older units).

Edit: Never mind, the Revzilla site is a "Close-Out" and my size is no longer available. Extreme Supply seems to have them, but at the full, bust-out MSRP which is just INSANE.
