    Need help choosing bike accessories

    Hey guys,

    I am new to this forum. Wasn't sure whether to ask this question in the Help Me section or in Biking Gear Reviews section.

    I am Sachin and I do a lot of road trips. Every alternate weekends, I go 500km+ trip. But I have always compromised on Biking accessories. Never bought them and luckily for me I didn't meet with a single accident.

    Keeping it short, I wanna get a complete set of riding accessories. Helmet, Gloves, jacket, Guards. I have zero knowledge about this. Please gimme some pointers. What all should I buy, some good suggestions. And may be shop details.

    Overall budget is around 15k

    Thanks in advance

    Once you have basic knowledge. Allocate an amount from your overall budget to each item..

    helmet approx 3.5k

    gloves approx 2.5K

    Jacket approx 7-8K

    knee guards 2-2.5K.

      I found this article from Motoroids.com pretty useful

      Ride Safe With Motoroids: How to buy a full riding gear set in less than Rs 15,000 | Motoroids

      And one more. Where are you from , that will help us locate you some shops. Hoping that you are from India, there are more than 15000+ shops that sells gears. So, do let us know your exact location of stay/residence.

      Or If you want to keep your hideout location a secret , There is always online shopping for us lazy-goose.

        Ride Safe,
        Sachin
