    What gear do you use?

    Just curious as to what gear everyone rides with.

    me:  Shoei RF-1000 helmet,  Joe Rocket Alter Ego Jacket,  Joe Rocket Highside Gloves.

    I rarely wear the Joe Rocket Alter Ego Pants.  I think they scratch up my tank so i stopped wearing them lol.  I would like to get some boots however.  A pair of Sidi.


    96 CBR F3 - D&D Slip on, k&n, chrome wheels and swingarm. Everything else stock.

    Re: What gear do you use?

    track:
    helimot custom suit (with my spidi slider as my backup)
    a*star supertech boots, soon to be replaced by sidi vertigo corsa air
    helimot gloves, back-up by technic and joe rocket. soon to be replace by held phantoms and kushitani air gpr's
    helimot backprotector with cut for hump, backed up by spidi back protector
    suomy gunwind backed by up kbc vr-1, soon to add suomy extreme (never had to wear earplugs on my suomy, even on the track. but i do for my vr-1's even on street).

    yes, i'm replacing a lot of gear this year. if i'm not fast, which i'm not, i'll look fast. tee hee

    street gear mostly in closet since i dont' have a street bike/ride street:
    red dainese textile jacket
    fieldsheer highlander full body textile suit
    sidi strada boots
    held gloves, sometimes i use my tecknics
    also have a a*star black stunt jacket (i think it's the stunt version)
    black kbc vr-1


    scooter gear:
    black kbc vr-1 helmet
    ifi it's warm, shorts wife beater and sandals
    if cold like yesterday, cotton liners and/or my tecknics or held, jeans or jogging pants, ski jacket or medium weight jacket or sweater
    hiking boots
    tee hee

    i think that's it for my street/road gear, maybe 1 or 2 items here and there still i've not accounted for. i do have my off-road gear too for my former ttr 125 (bye bye lil' bike; hello DRZ125L or CRF150R expert!)
