    Used to happen with me aswell on my RC390.
    Then I added traction pads and also switched to Taichi knee guards which are worn below the pants

        Add side traction pads and switch to tube type knee guards from Aspida / Solace / Taichi / Scoyco etc.

          Interesting video to watch, I would love to get my hands on some riding gear that made is with this material called Gore-Tex that nearly offers 99.99% water-proofing!

            Shima gloves are out of stock both at Orion Yamaha and Gear n Ride. Apparently, import duties have gone up and they are not sure when the next consignment will arrive[emoji45]

            Any other short cuff gloves in the same range? TBG? Aspida?

                    I know you are looking at a higher range gloves, but if you can looking for city-use or casual touring ones, you can check out the Solace ones. I use their Passion city ones and they are fantastic!

                    Quecha, Timberland, Woodland, Wildcraft do pretty well - esp if they have the water proofing element as well.

                        What is your budget?

                        Also what kind of glove are you looking at? (ex: leather, mesh, etc)

                        You can check www.openroad.in, they still have a few options from Shima still in stock.

                            Rynox Helium vs Air GT. Which ones better for this summer and the seasons to follow ?

                              Helium is a light weight jacket, but you get Level 1 protector and it skips the Thermal liner. You can wear a thermal layer (Thermacot) during winter and wear the jacket over it.

                              Air GT on the other hand has both the liners and comes with Level 2 protectors.

                              Features are more or less the same.
                              If you have or plan yo buy the Stealth jacket, you can go for the Stealth pant. The entire suit looks really good.

                              But if you are using any other jacket (especially in black color) the Advento will look better.

                              Protection wise both are at par with each other I believe (except that the Stealth has Hi-Viz mesh panel which increases your daytime Visibility.
