Re: Special Deal on Takamii CF helmets

Just in case your in Melbourne, you can see these helmets at Motorcycle Race Gear.
They are very nice to look at and are so light as well. Now just gotta save some pennies and buy before Christmas as im sure my wife has many gifts to spend that money on:)

Re: suggestion on leather gear

On a similar note, i just found on the Hartwell website that there is a promotion going on for a free back protector.
And another offering a 10% discount on RS Taichi products.

Re: suggestion on leather gear

If you look at the Joe Rockets you will find they are by far the thickest leather. 1.3 to 1.6mm..
Alpine star, 1.3 to 1.4.
Tecknic 1.4 to 1.5
Dainese 1.3 to 1.4
So never let the facts get in the way of a good story. Ive crashed in my Rockets & they held up very well indeed.
Must be luck too. All ...

Re: suggestion on leather gear

Recently I went to winton for the Vic titles round. There was a rider there who happened to crash twice. He was wearing RS Taichi One piece and they held up extremely well. No holes and stitching looked like new still. He even continued riding in them for the rest of the day.
