      I am to eyeing it..
      I'll go and check a authorised dealer here in bangalore and try give an idea on how it is..
      I guess it should be good because they're riding boots received good views..
      Lets see..

          I tried 3 different shops for the jacket and none of them had stocks
          Some said it'll in 10 days time or in june
          While orion motors said it'll come by tue if i order now. But post the experience posted here about the that place i am little hesitant to place the order form them..
          So there's one more place I'll have try tomm as it is closed so let's see..

                            • Help requested with riding gear finalization

                              Hi guys. I desperately need to buy a new riding jacket and a pair of gloves. The budget for my jacket is hovering the range of 5 - 7K. So far I have shortlisted the following jackets ONLY by reading about them. Have yet to physically check fitting and stuff -

                              1. DSG Evo
                              2. Spartan Ascimitar Transition
                              3. Cramster Breezer 2.0
                              4. Spartan Scimitar Strike
                              5. DSG Nero

                              My problems start here - I am not being able to decide as to which would have the best insulating and keep dry capabilities. Every site says bla bla bla however sometimes the reality is totally different. The last thing I want is spend the money on something which is said to be waterproof and is not.

                              Also, my glove budget is about 2 - 3 K. Possible we could get a good pair of waterproof and insulated gloves within this budget ?

                              I need to buy in Delhi so a few stores would be helpful. I know Ryderz Planet at Ghitorni, Chopra Automobiles and Bachoo Motors in KB. Any others would be really helpful.

                              I pray, dear God please protect my ride
                              And if I lay down my bike today
                              I pray to God I walk away...
                              I walk away to ride another day
