Jacket- Don't even dream of wearing the Pulse in Delhi Summers; Breezer is mesh material which u can somehow manage, however its not suited for Rainy Season or Winter.
Order these online.
Helmets- get what looks good and fits you.
Cheers.sigpicI feel like Clark Kent on the streets riding the Pulsar, On the track.. with my Ninja.. I feel like Superman.

as said earlier.....twister is a touring gloves.MX3 is suitable for city riding.
i personaly use cramster brezeer....looks and feel of it is better than pulse
pulse which is waterproof but brezzer is not.
Helmet------ you can decide depending on your budget(try LS2 in my opion).Keep your bike in good repair: motorcycle boots are not comfortable for walking.

I agree. Recommend the Cramster MX3 over similar DSG stuff. DSGs are available in Orion Motors, opp Forum & Cramster's store is on Cunningham Road.Originally posted by Ananth View PostGet a Cramster / DSG instead. Will help you in the long run.

I tried the Cramster MX3 and the DSG Revive gloves. Both fit well.Originally posted by neil.jericho View PostI agree. Recommend the Cramster MX3 over similar DSG stuff.
Cramster MX3 is a mesh glove while the DSG revive is full grain leather. Both have kevlar knuckle protection.
I prefer the DSG Revive since it sports leather construction.
Any comments on why I should skip DSG and go with Cramster? I intend to make the purchase in the next couple of days so hoping for a quick reply.
Thanks in advance.

The Revive is the only model from DSG that I havent tried out myself. Had a pair of DSG gloves (the discontinued model that they sold for 1300 bucks) for a year till it rapidly wore out (the webbing between the thumb & other fingers) & became unusable. Saw other xBhpians having the same gloves were facing the same issues that I was. Expected it to last for longer than that. Dont like the feel of any of DSG's full gauntlets.Originally posted by n_aditya View PostI tried the Cramster MX3 and the DSG Revive gloves. Both fit well.

Using the Cramster MX3 since then & the feel through the gloves is way better on them. In fact I like the Cramster TRG 2 (my roomie has it) but they didnt have my size when I had gone to Cramster. Ended up picking up the MX3 which is perfect for city use (which is 98% of my running). No signs of it wearing out whatsoever.
Basically for feel (intangible & varies from person to person) & durability I would suggest Cramsters. Plus there is a huge price difference - the MX3 retails for 1100 & the Revive is Rs 2000. If money is not a problem & youre comfortable with gauntlets spend an extra 300 bucks and go in for the TRG 2 ().

Both fit perfectly and the only inclination to DSG was full leather. Will try Cramster again on the weekend and decide. Have another week for the Ninja so hopefully i can reach a decision before it arrives.

Hmm,I too am in a dilemma over the MX3 and the Revive . The MX3 does have good feel and a build quality that's way better than the Motomesh,and 99% of my riding does happen in the city . But,the Revive sports pittards leather construction and has better protection for the fingers. Hmm,let's see.
