Welcome to riders gear. The fact that you are in this forum says a lot. To me it means you are serious about not only having a nice bike, but protecting yourself while you are on it. Good gear doesn't have to break the bank. By doing some shopping you can find some pretty good deals. Let's hear what all you guys are gearing up in.

I have two types of gear. One for casual rides like when I am on the "Rex" and full leather for more serious stuff on the CBR954. Gear lists includes but not limited to:

Teknic Chicane two piece
Sidi Vertebra boots
Joe Rocket gloves
Alpinestar gloves
Leather pants
Joe Rocket jacket
Shoei helmet
Heavy leather m/c jacket

Mine for now... Updated to Vanson full suit very soon. ;)

First Gear S-Pilot 2000 jacket
First Gear Flightline pants
Sidi Vertebrae Chromo's
Teknic Speedstar gloves
Arai Quantum f helmet

I would like something more comfortable for touring, but with the Vanson I'll have to make do with the First Gear stuff being relegated to that and cold weather riding. :D

Hey, the threads only been laying around for a week... what the hell, I'm bored. Most of this was listed in the "track gear" thread, but not all of it so I'll throw the whole closet out there.

Helmets: Arai Signet and two AGV Argons (one matches the bike, one I just liked, both were cheap).

Gloves: Teknic Violators, Dannisport Carbon Summer ($60 and not so heavy as the Violators, good for less-than-track riding), and some fully perfed "hope-I-don't-fall-in-them" gloves for hot Florida commuting.

Leather/jackets: AGV Storm two piece suit (for "high risk" riding), Teknic Supervent (for hot weather), JR Meteor (for the cold), JR Phoenix (a friend is using it... someday I might squeeze some money out of him for it).

Boots Hein Gericke (real boots) and AGV (around town boots).

I need to get some pants to wear around town, besides jeans.

All this gear has been purchased on closeout as cheap as I could get, being an unemployed student. The entire collection comes up to $1160 plus tax and shipping. I don't think that's too bad considering *nice* leathers would cost that much! (The Arai was given to me, which makes a big dent in the cost! :))

So, how do you like those carbon pro gloves? I've always been a big AGV glove fan, but the Teknics were on sale for $70 so I got those instead.
Love them. They been through snow, rain, and every other damn element that MI and FL have thrown at them. They still are soft and comfortable as hell.
