Re: Universal : Riding Gear Thread

Any reviews on the Sidi B2 riding boots? Can you walk around in them?
Also does the shoes sold by TBG make sense over Sidi?

Nope. I felt that the armors were flimsy. For city jacket it would be perfect, for touring it needs an upgrade. I'm not sure how well it would cope up in winter.

Re: Universal : Riding Gear Thread

I ll be riding mostly in city..(pune) and often on highways..
I love to feel the breeze and would hate to sweat due to any jacket..
Now should I buy Alpinestar TGP- air(appx rs16000) or buy both rynox Tornado pro and Air..

In bumper to bumper traffic you will sweat no matter what jacket. If you have the money to buy the alpinestar then go for it. Why do you want to buy two jacket with similar usage boundaries?

I don't know about MT helmets though I was about buy the blade version of that but finally bought the LS2. LS2 has good ventilation above 60kmph only, what has impressed me the most is the wind noise suppression it has, even at 90-95 kmph the noise quite bearable.

My POV, If u want noise isolation use ear plugs. LS2 was good as VFM when launched now with prices gone high it's a waste. Aerodynamically it's crap. The padding becomes unusable after almost a year and the visor rachet wears out quickly too.

I wanted to buy two jackets for two different usages.. one light, full mesh for ventilation,bare min reqd protection for city.
And a jacket with better protection.little heavy, with inners for rains.

Anyone here who is happy with his jacket in B2B traffic in daily commute ? Which jacket ?

Check out the SOL SF5 with an internal sun visor. It retails for 6.2k I use one and have found it to be a good buy.
