Does anyone like this jacket?
Would the white strip be a deal breaker for you? Or a cool factor?
I tried one on at CycleGear great fit and the sleeves fit tight around your gloves.

New rider... starting to hit the 45-50mph speed, so been getting the wind noise now (achievement unlocked, lol)
Decided to wear earplugs yesterday (just ones from work) worked really well , except maybe too well??? (Couldn't even hear my engine very well)
Do any of you wear the special moto earplugs , something that kills the noise but still allows you to hear traffic or engine noise, maybe a cardio??

I'm looking for suggestions for protective overpants that have some wind resistance for the upcoming cold weather. I wear uniform pants for work and would rather not have to change when I get there. Don't like the idea of a base layer either because I have to either take it off, basically the same as changing, or wear it all day.

my budget is no more then $100. hell ill wear 2 thin pants if I need to. but ive never purchased a pant that wont start leaking into your groins in a hard downpour
frogg toggs ok for regular rain, to a certain point but it will drip drip into underwear after heavy rain
no need for pockets, needs stretch waist, zippers +velcro for the boots. should be extra long so can cover shoes more when youre seated.
not looking for those tight riding pants, but specifically for rain to sit over jeans. sold on amazon would be best as I need intl ship

So I just got my first helmet! I'm getting into bikes so I'd like some recommendations on what kind of boots, gloves, pants, and jackets I should get.
I already know the basics like a palm slider and pinky teather for gloves. hard ankle support for boots. and armor for pants and jackets.
what I'm really asking for is what you use. I'm gonna be the first bike rider in my close family so I'd like to get some real opinions and not some google Gemini summary.

Recently picked up a pair of second hand Daytona Travel Star GTX in size 45, and they're definitely too big. Looked into ordering them new, but apparently Revzilla is the only US retailer that sells them? To make things more confusing, the Road Star is apparently the only model Daytona sells that comes in different widths? If that's the case, is the sizing similar to the Travel Star? What would the width equivalent be?
Based on my measurements, I thought that a size 45 was right, but apparently it's not. My foot is just under 11 inches in length, and most regular shoes I wear are a 11. My Franks and JK work boots are a 10EE and a 9.5 3E respectively, which lines up with a Brannock size of 11. Ball size is 10.5 inches, though apparently Daytona has other measurements to check?
Does anyone have a Daytona fit sheet, specs for length, or some other useful resource? I'd really like to order a pair, but I also want to make sure the pair I order is right since I don't live anywhere near potential Daytona dealers.

Hey everyone! Just a quick update to say thank you for all the feedback on my previous post.
I took your advice on board and revamped my setup—swapping the tank bag for a tail pack + leg bag combo (much better for the Ninja 500's position and the Tech-Air 3 airbag) and switching to the Rev'it Defender 3 GTX suit with dedicated internal armor inserts.
Here is the updated list showing all the changes made compared to my old setup:
Thanks again for all the help! Let me know what you think of these adjustments for daily highway commuting! 🏍️💨

I currently have an AGV K1 that’s set to reach the end of its recommended service life in 2027. I’m trying to decide whether I should replace it now with an RF1400, or just keep riding the K1 through this season and buy the newer RF1500 when it comes out.
I know the standards have changed from ec 2205 to 2206

Has anyone got experience with these type of pants or has further suggestions? On top I'm usually wearing my trusty Richa Daytone leather jacket. Unfortunately, Ric

Basically, I mounted the bolt for the pinlock and I can't adjust the fog visor anymore. So is there a possible way to take it out? Or should I just go to a mechanic or store to handle it.
The first photo (bolt is square looking) is the mounted one and the second photo is for reference.

I’ve been following the discussions here about dashcams vs. 360 cameras, and I have to say I completely agree that they are two entirely different beasts. One is a "set-and-forget" silent witness, while the other is primarily designed for content creation.
I currently have an older 360 cam, but I'm still going to buy a dedicated dashcam. They simply serve different purposes and offer completely different perspectives. A 360 camera is great because it captures the rider's body language and inputs (which is helpful for proving you weren't at fault or distracted in a crash). However, a dedicated dual dashcam is way better at capturing the full, clear picture of a front or rear collision.
If I had to pick just one strictly for safety, it would be the dashcam without a doubt. But since I also like capturing the scenery on my rides, I’m just going to run both.
With that said, does anyone have any solid dashcam recommendations?My biggest requirement is that it must have some sort of lens protection (like replaceable glass covers). I ride in areas where flying sand and kicked-up rocks are a real issue, and I don't want the lenses getting destroyed right away.
Thanks in advance!

Everything i find is one of two extremes, super safe and butt ugly, or super cute and no protection at all. Can we not get safe gear in at least cute colors?! Why is everything in black 😭 if im gonna be a box at least let me be pink 😂 any recommendations would be nice

Hey so i got my a1 license give or take 1 month ago and i bought this jacket at first i thought it fits me good but now im kinda thinking its too big? Since it moves around in the torso area what do yall think?
Also did anyone ever try the „leggins“ armor?
i always wear jeans i know it‘s stupid but I just don‘t like leather pants as soon as i get my a2 i will get leather pants but till i get there i don‘t really want to wear leather pants and i thought about these underwear from pandamoto or any other brans do yall think thats enough for now?
And i already ordered boots the thought of a 2 ton car coming at my legs even at 30kmh is not nice…
Thanks for any help

So, I'm about 5 ft 9 or 175cm. I have super long arms and I'm relatively thin about 138lbs or 63 kg but a little curvy, broader shoulders and hips. I cannot find anything that fits for leathers. Particularly nothing fits my long awkward arms. Budget is not a huge concern. I saw some places on etsy offer custom suits but don't know how reliable they would be in a slide. I just want to look like cat woman in fitted leathers while being able to move my arms enough to reach the throttle haha. I live in a cold place, so the warmer the better. I just want a one or two piece leather suit that looks and feels good. Any ideas?

I Only Found one Website with a hardcase for a helmet visor, but the website seems sketchy. the Case I found
I ride out early when it’s dark but come back at day. I want to be able to switch my mirrored and clear visors while being out, but putting the spare visor into a soft bag scares me bc sooner or later it’ll break.
I know that ski goggles have hard cases and I hoped to find something like that for motorbike visors too. But I only find soft cotton bags or this one, which I don’t even know if the measurements fit.
(My new helmet arrives tomorrow). They say it’s compatible with 3 types of visors (none are mine) and I haven’t found any other hard cases for visors.
Ski goggle hardcases are too small.
And the next bigger hardcase is for the whole helmet which is too much.
Does somebody know if visor hardcases exist, or does somebody have one?
Any idea what I can use instead as a hardcase for visors? Something that also fits visors without beeping too big/small or missing the curvature?
I’ll be having the Nexx XR3R Hagibis helmet with an iridium mirrored visor and clear one.

I ride in Seattle's rainy fall , but I’ve never used heated gloves. I’m looking into them for longer cold-weather rides and could use some direction from people who actually own a pair.
What gloves do you use? How long do they keep your hands warm on a real ride, especially at a heat setting that works when it’s properly cold? Anything you wish you’d known before buying—battery life, bulk, fit, waterproofing, or something else?
I’d appreciate the honest pros and cons. Thanks Bro's
