what does that mean??

@bobby...did this have color options?? how much had you bought it for??



motorbreath ka bhi same jacket hai na??

i have the same jacket. fits me nicely (im not fat though just a lil plump)

+ve points
-decent jacket at a decent enough price (for those who cannot get their stuff from outside via friends/family)

-fitting is good for slightly plump people like me

-build quality is good, so far no fabric or thread coming loose.

-already tested the elbow protectors by deliberately falling (with momentum) onto the marble floor hard , the jacket obv didnt tear (marble surface ?)but it didnt hurt much (barely)

-scothbrite reflectors can be clearly seen even though they are less than the ones on the spike and cramster's jackets

-ve points.

really makes you sweat like anything. esp with the inner liner

back protector , im not sure how good it is at dispering the impact effect

fitting is odd without the inner liner, the shoulder guards don't seem to be at the right place without the inner liner.

its not waterproof at the wrist straps. the water seeps in and its really annoying, solved THIS particular problem by buying dsg primal full gauntlet gloves.(for 2.2k) so no water now gets in the jacket.

@me_is_rossi : i also use the same jacket but wen the hell did they made it for 5.2K ?
last i got it was for 4.5 K.

Dsg Primal Gloves review

+ves
- Build quality is good, even after very harsh use it has not worn out.
- Full gauntlet gloves, doesnt let air/water enter the jacket
- Ventilated finger tip area
- double velcro strap, snug fitting

-ves
ventilation is good but its a -ve when it rains, water enters really easily through the vents and you feel the fingers going cold and numb. i blocked the vents with superglue and little strands of rubber.

if wet, the gloves smell bad, and give off colour at the fingers.

cleaning them isnt as easy as you think, takes some effort to get the dirt off the gloves.

@ neil : the answers to your questions are given above in blue fonts. i hope you ll find it useful. best of luck .

Dude thanks a mill, youre a life saver. I guess I'll go in for the Meteor in red, DSG's stuff seems way overpriced at the end of the day. 5300 for the textile & 6000 for their mesh is a tad ridiculous. If only I can reach the Cramster place in Bangalore before they jack up the prices to keep up with DSG's rates .....

How come I dont see anyone in Bangalore wearing good riding gear ?

[Xenologik]

^^ yeh toh mujhe bhi nahi pata hai

im the ONLY one in tumkur wearing riding gear people give me odd stares, even the mamulog.

i wonder what they'll think when i also buy the cramster pants and boots

I had called DSG today asking about Alpinestars Raven Gloves but they said that they are out of stock and the new stock will arrive on 17th Nov. I will have to wait till then.
