I love my Nolan N100E. The only complaint I have is that the chinbar rides a bit close to my chin. It's a little noisier than a regular full face, but in town that is overridden by the convenience of the flip-up (I wear glasses).
However, I just went down last week and while I don't *think* my helmet impacted, I'll still be retiring it for either another Nolan or perhaps a Shoei if I can get the extra $$ out of the insurance company.
FOLLOWUP/EDIT: One thing I think is very important is to look at the latching mechanism on the chinbar. The Nolans and Shoeis have a metal latch that I know of. Some of the cheaper modulars like the KBC have a PLASTIC latch which I would personally never trust.

I have the Caberg Justissimo modular helmet and I like it (not love it, but like it). I wrote a review over at the Kawasaki Motorcycle forums on it.
