Avoid SMG4s. They're just warm, nothing more.

Re: Universal : Riding Gear Thread

Yeah the SMG4 offer no protection at all. I saw one winter gloves by the name 'Ignite'. Waterproof and it had knuckle protection. I'll get those. Just 1100₹. Chopra, Karol Bagh.

Finally I have a set, only the pants were missing, had been looking to buy these pants for a long time and recently they became available with Orion motors, Bangalore I could hold myself back and went ahead and ordered one.


The pant: Alpinestars A10 air flow pants

These have been discontinued but stocks are still available with some shops.
These are currently one of the few mesh/textile pants that are available in sport cut with provision to install knee sliders.

These are so comfortable to wear and ride in and the mobility is amazing, doesn't restricts movements one bit, breaths well and fits amazingly well.
These come with gp style armour for knees and shin but only foam(which is no good) For hip.

There are velcro patches at knees to install knee sliders and it comes with a cover to cover up the velcro patch if you're not using knee sliders.



JACKET: Alpinestars T Gp pro air jacket

The top of the line jacket in textile from alpinestars, also has a really aggressive fit.
This jacket comes with level 2 bio armour at shoulders and arms (this was one of the first jacket to come with alpinestars level 2 bio armour) and as usual doesnt come with chest and back armours, they have to be bought seperately. I have the chest armour (Level 1) and back armour (level 2) installed though.

The quality is top notch and the materials used are really good (I have crash tested astars jacket previously, even though the material doesn't feel too tough but it holds up pretty well in a crash).

Riding jackets-gloves

Hi guys,

Will be buying a riding jacket and a pair of glove in the coming week. All all the research as per my budget, have narrowed down to the BBG Xplorer and Rynox AirGT 2.0 jackets. Kindly chip in your experience on these. Both cost in the similar range with a difference of 250rs. The Xplorer is for 6k and the later is 250 lesser.

My personal choice is the Xplorer, but also considering the Rynox if it overpasses per you experiences.

Also, the BBG full gauntlet gloves vs the Aspida Ares. These too cost around the same range with a difference of 250rs or so. Here too, BBG has a little extra protection per my resrarch, but would like to hear from you guys if you think otherwise per your experiences.

Thanks !!
Happy wrooming..

Have personally used the Air GT for the longest time before I upgraded to the Tornado pro. Go for the Air GT, its a VFM jacket at that price point. The build quality and finishing are fabulous. Have done daily commutes as well as highway weekend rides with it and it is a very good jacket.

Re: Universal : Riding Gear Thread

Can someone suggest me a good pair of gloves for under 4000INR?
I Loved the Rynox apex evo but it is not in stock in any websites
They are for short weekend rides, occasional long rides and city commutes

Checkout cramster blaster v2 semi gauntlet, full leather and very soft. It's also having good padding and protection.
