Been searching for these jerseys to get my wife. I know they are sold out and hard to find. Does anyone know a good spot for resale of motorcycle gear.

Question Cardo systems worth it in 2026?

3 Upvotes

I would like something that will allow me to listen to music while riding, but without blocking out important sounds, such as the engine or other traffic noises.

But, I also like the idea of having control of my phone / music on phone, and communication with other riders.

Opinion Terrible experience with AGV K1s- my first ever "premium" helmet

Thumbnail

14 Upvotes

Started riding in March 2025 and bought an AGV K1S for INR 28,000 ($270, we have to pay import duty so it's much more expensive here) from a reputed importer in India. Loved the helmet and toured with it.

A year later, while getting an intercom fitted for a trip, the store staff removed the liner and I found cracks in the EPS.

I've never crashed or dropped the helmet, so this was pretty shocking. The concerning bit for me is that there is no way for me to know when did this damage happen, I wore it on a couple of tours and I'm just glad there was no incident to be relying on a helmet with a broken EPS.

Contacted AGV customer care and, after 2–3 weeks of correspondence, they refused to take responsibility.

No idea whether this was a manufacturing defect or the EPS deteriorating on its own, but I'm pretty disappointed.

I was actually considering upgrading to a K7 because I was so happy with my helmet, but I'll be avoiding AGV going forward.

Question Deciding between revit echelon or poseidon 3

0 Upvotes

About to do daily commutinf o work on a bmw f900r with all kinds of weather: storms, rain, snow, you name it.

I really like the clean look of the revit echelon, but i cant seem to find really independent reviews, the one I did find said the waterproofing is lacking..

On the other hand is the poseidon 3 gtx which should be very durable and extremely good at keeping the water out.

In short, I think the poseidon would be the better choice for durability and waterproofing, but maybe looks a bit to "adventure" on my bmw f900r...

Anyone with experience with either of the two or which one would you choose?

So i just got mine in the mail, and i have a XL Voss 993 Moto S. I got a ride planned later this day; Would i be able to install it for now with the metal clamp since the adhesive says it takes 24 hours?? I got a Packtalk Pro if that makes any difference.

Top is the Wiley X and bottom is my current glasses from Dita. It made a huge difference and I dont hate myself every time I have to put on my helmet before going out and they slide in like butter, also with it being Z87+ is a good thing after hearing back from a friend that got his frame shattered into his eyeball. highly recommended!

Morning gentlemen, I wanted to ask if anyone has firsthand experience with the brand, how reliable and trustworthy is it? I'm diehard cyberpunk fan and new release is must buy, but I'm bit unsure of brand as I haven't heard of it previously. Also maybe anyone has heard anything about possible release date?

Leatt 8.5 ADV - Beautiful junk

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

Hi there,

Just bought a Leatt 8.5 ADV helmet and it’s such a beautiful junk.

The fit is great, I am coming from a HJC i71, I wore the helmet for 30 minutes around the house, no pressure points but when I took it off and looked more closely to the helmet padding, I noticed the cheek padding is lose, like, completely lose.

The adhesive between the padding and the outer shell is off.

I don’t know what other options do I have similar to this adv helmet because most of them I find them to look ugly. Airoh looks okish but I read that the quality isn’t great.

Should I put new adhesive there and keep it, if yes, what adhesive do you recommend?

How do you safely store your helmet at work?

18 Upvotes

Could be a bit of a silly question, but I'd rather be safe than sorry. I’m curious how people store their helmets at work when they don’t have a locker.

I want to keep mine safe from falls, kicks, or just being knocked around in general. Since a helmet is there to protect your head, I’d rather not leave it somewhere it could get damaged.

Any advice and personal experience would be appreciated.

Opinion Two years of buying the wrong stuff before I got it right. Roast the list.

20 Upvotes

Picked up a used 22 MT-09 last spring and I've been slowly figuring out gear since. Nothing here is top shelf, I'm not made of money, but it's finally a setup I don't think about while riding.

Gear

  • HJC RPHA 71. Bought it on sale mostly because it fit, and it's been better than the Bell I had before it. Quiet enough with earplugs, which I wear anyway.
  • Alpinestars T-GP Plus jacket. Mesh, so it's useless below about 12 degrees, but I ride in summer more than I don't.
  • Gloves went from $40 Amazon ones to a pair of Held Air n Dry. The cheap ones were fine right up until a low speed tip over in a parking lot, and then they were not fine.
  • TCX Street Ace boots. Look like normal shoes, which is the only reason I actually wear them to work.
  • Kevlar jeans. I know, I know. Proper pants are the next thing.

Contact points, which nobody warned me about

  • Tank grips, generic ones off eBay, and honestly they work the same as the name brand ones as far as I can tell.
  • Cheap adjustable levers. Fine, no complaints, though the finish is already going.
  • Luimoto seat cover. The stock MT-09 seat is slick and I was sliding into the tank at every stop. This fixed it for less than I expected.
  • Bar ends, mostly for the buzz at highway speed.

The one I regret is the mesh jacket. Should have bought something three season and been done with it instead of owning a jacket that's good for four months.

So what's the obvious thing I'm still missing? And is anyone actually happy with kevlar jeans long term or should I just accept I need real pants.

Just wondering what everyone’s routine is. Wiping off a jacket may be fine if I wasn’t in Texas, and even just sitting on the bike requires a modicum of sweat. How do yall clean your gear that you’re not supposed to wash?

Question Best mesh/lightweight jacket?

I recently got back into riding after being in an accident a long while back. Im now living in Phoenix and its basically like living in an oven.

I dont ride during the days but even hopping on at 10pm i still sweat like crazy and feel like im going to pass out whenever i have anything with long sleeves on.

Are there any recommendations or certain brand i should check out, or even other gimicky type things that can help keep me cool when im riding?

Track Bison Track Suit

Post image
17 Upvotes

I just received my new Bison track suit, and I have to say the fit and quality feel top notch 👌🏻

I decided on kangaroo leather with the integrated Helite airbag.

My question for those with experience with these suits, are you leaving the integrated back protector in for track days or should I be removing this for a full hard shell (like I used to use in my old suit)?

I’m torn, the integrated one has less coverage than those backpack style back protectors and feels softer. Perhaps this is by design since there will now be an airbag…

How are your Odin mfg gloves ?

2 Upvotes

Iv owned three different pairs.

First pair was before they moved to the d30 knuckles.. I wear a large and the large are super tight..and never really wore them .

2nd pair was the smx bones. These things lasted 2 seasons, so 7 months of riding and they completely disintegrated.

3rd pair was the heavy hitter bones l and they are currently falling apart after two years as well..

Fingers popping out of the perforations and the palm is falling apart.

I like the fit and look for the most part. But at $135+ shipping and taxes, Seems like they should last longer.

Currently looking for new gloves.
