Sas tech as said to me is fitting onto spartan and a* jackets without any issue, so if the rjays back foam is similarly shaped then it should fit in, now since only spartan users can get knox , the sas tech should work out as a cheaper alternative if you want it, I can easily arrange it for you. Just PM me if you want it. It is the same guy , who i went for the givi top boxes.

Vijay mahca...you are tagging the wrong guy since ages now, i wonder what he will be thinking of when you are tagging him away in most posts...

Thanks mate, sorry macha, I thought only one KRISH existed, hehe. But as always we can chat later on.

Anyone have or using Cramster Velocity 2.0 pants ?
Or Cramster knee guards ?

Please pm me or reply here once.
Just a query.

Some of my friends use this pant and a dear friend of mine, used this for his Ladakh and he upgraded to another pant and that was a VELOCITY too. Really good pants and fit is where I like them, real good chic fit, the user doesn't even know they are worn. And nothing really to go hoopla compared to other pants, they are good and comes with added liner which makes it a multi weather pant and so does their jackets, pure VFM.

Any reviews about Motorcycle Jackets

Im planning to buy this jacket soon!!! Please reply at the earliest.

To keep it simple, if ROYAL ENFIELD HIMALAYAN ODYSSEY guys wear this jacket everytime they do the trip and these guys are the sponsors, then it should work perfectly well for you, considering the nitty-gritty differences. But personally I'd recommend to go for it, if you really do like it.

The pants has been tested by members in Ladakh wearing DSG Cramster and either separately or combo and they are just do their job.

re: Universal : Riding Gear Thread

Bro, as discussed on the call, for such things it's best you spend a bit more and get good quality stuff. Personally I regretted buying the RJays (which itself is good) instead of JR (which is much better). To save 3K I went for RJays Octane, instead of JR Pheonix. Things like jackets etc. last you for at least 3 years .. and hence prove to be a better investment as compared to say gloves.

I know this is a stretch for your budget, but think about getting this one:

Performance Racing Store. Joe Rocket Phoenix 5.0 Motorcycle Jackets

Or else, as compared to Zeus, I'd still recommend, at worst go for this:

Performance Racing Store. AGV Sport SOLARE Textile Jacket

Finally the one below is the one I have. It's a three piece modular jacket for summer/rain/cold and is working beautifully in the monsoons. By three piece what I mean is the monsoon protection isn't a liner but instead another jacket (!!) to be worn on top of your main (summer) jacket which has the protectors.

Performance Racing Store. Joe Rocket Jacket - Alter Ego 3.0

To keep it simple, if ROYAL ENFIELD HIMALAYAN ODYSSEY guys wear this jacket everytime they do the trip and these guys are the sponsors, then it should work perfectly well for you, considering the nitty-gritty differences. But personally I'd recommend to go for it, if you really do like it.

Thanx Kakkar and B7ACKTHORN for your inputs.

I checked the material on PRS site, Rocktex 660, I do not know how good it is in comparison with 600 Denier Cordura which is provided by Zeus. The Alter Ego Looks good but kinda shoots my budget of 8k. The AGV solare is a mesh jacket, dont need a complete mesh!

Still hanging on the Zeus part, any reviews or Info please share.

yep, you should better look at DSG Revive .......... primarily because Revive is a relatively superior product as compared to Nitro (I guess the web can help you better with point wise features)

Oh beauty !! this green gonna suit like anything on your Green FZ (if I remember it correct) ............. congrats ............... I am only worried about the quality of clothing used in Balaclava ............ what is it ?? is that humble enough to soak good amount of sweat in case of long tours??

and moreover we all are brothers here not Sir and More hehe.

I guess it must have been out of respect and humbleness

Spot on You have guesses it correctly. The gloves are great, the only problem is I have never wore a fully gloves always it was half gloves. Now getting used to the fully gloves setup. Its cool.

The material used in the balaclava is really good. I rode through our chennai heat in the afternoon and was sweating like a pig. It absorbed all the sweat and kept me cool. I was really astonished. It is a good deal I guess.
