Universal : Riding Gear Thread

Re: Universal : Riding Gear Thread

Please suggest a riding pant for me, preferences are written below:

1. Price- as low as possible without compromising safety
2. Usage- City use only, May go on 250KM ride once in 6 months.
3. Safety is priority
4. should have excellent ventilation. All weather pants aren't required as i wont be touring/riding in rain/extreme winter.

Are knee guards good alternative for riding pants? pardon my ignorance as i have never owned a riding pant before.

Have been using rynox airtech pants.perfect for city use with huge mesh patches in front for ventilation.knox Armor(level 2 i guess) for knee.external rain liner.waterproof pocket.and knee armour is with a lot of adjustability due to velcro (can't remember the fancy name given by the company).have been going strong for some time without any issues.got it for 6500.
Knee guards are not an alternative for riding pants, ever.the guards may shift if external.internal ones will be a pain to wear and the guards offer zero abrasion resistance to parts other than knee.

I am looking for Rev'it! Sand 3 Jacket in India . Can you suggest some good places to buy genuine motorcycle gear in Delhi and Gurgaon? I live in Chattarpur area. I am checking on some online sites but the prices there are in Dollars, and with shipping charges, the cost overrun is too high .

Appreciate the help.

Re: Universal : Riding Gear Thread

Check Rynox Stealth evo or Solace Furious. Both are better than the options you are looking at.

Goodluck.

I am looking to buy a textile Jacket.

How good is aspida-odysseus-air-touring-jacket
and how to compare it with the MOTOTECH Trailblazer TourPro Jacket.

I use the Solace Passion city gloves. As the name suggests, it's not primarily meant for Touring, but I have been using it for past 1 year and it's fantastic. Fits in your budget.

Need suggestions for riding gloves for touring under 2500 rs

Re: Universal : Riding Gear Thread

Depends on your usage. If the pants have mesh only on thighs, all good.
There is always a compromise between protection and comfort, else we all would be wearing iron man suits.

CE level 2 is what I would see. Goodluck.

Do you guys recommend buying a pant with mesh or without? Was considering between the Rynox Advento or Solace Coolpro Mesh 2 or TourJet.

Hey. Anyone here use the Rynoc Recon gloves? I have the Aspida Centaur, looking for a glove that'd be usable in the rain, so not thinking about shelling out too much. I like the looks of the recon, and rynox in general,but does the product deliver ?

Re: Universal : Riding Gear Thread

I bought MT Muggello in Aug 2018 from Wroom store was going to buy Twister, Sachin suggested this.Good suggestion by him, cause later some of my friends who bought Twister are now complaining about chin strap getting loose after few months.
Now my MT Muggello's clear visor as well as external shell have developed few scratches. Was going to buy Pinlock(₹1750, turns out its bigger than twister's pinlock 30) , Silver/Mirror finish visor(₹1100) & clear (₹1000)visor & breath deflector (₹200) total cost ₹4050
Now after one year of usage i suspect cheek padding has lost its power.It deflects by 1 inch sideways when head is shook aggressively. If additional cheek padding(₹1650) is purchased total goes to (₹5700).Instead I was thinking of buying new helmet with pinlock(Max Vision pinlock 70)& silver/mirror visor.

Please suggest should I change liner & visors or buy new helmet, if new then which one?
Requirements:
Daily 20 kms on weekdays
70-200 kms on weekends
Touring once in 3 months
Good quality inner liner
Availability of spares
Not expensive accessories
Speaker pockets
Mirrored Visor
Max vison Pinlock 70
Double D ring


Shortlisted
SHIRO SH821 & 881
MT Thunder SV

Please suggest a proper one for me.

Has anyone used these gloves? They are made up of leather and looks sturdy and are comfortable to wear as well, if anyone is using them can you please give me real world usage review. They cost 3300 rs but during sale they are coming for 2400 rs

Knee guards are not an alternative. Check Rynox Storm and Solace Tourjet. Both are under 7k and very good pants.

You can also check Rynox Airtex pants under 7k.

All have good ventilation. Safety wise, Tourjet gets Level 2 protectors. Ventilation wise, Storm pants are very good.

Thank you so much for the SMK suggestion. I bought my Daughter a SMK Half Face with a 'S' sized liner. The shell will also support a 'M' and 'L' sized liner, so it can be upgraded. This was such a valuable piece of advice.

Glad my advice helped. Ride safe.
