    i got a full set of Dianese gear, its the main brand aprilia promotes.. all the gear is good. i go great long boots. great leather jacket all with good pads. great pants and gloves!!!! really good looking in quality and wear!

    i also got the new shoei kagayama tc-5. it racing helmet! and its made from kevlar, so if i get shot in the head ill be ok!!! its light and smaller in shape which is nice, other ones were really big and heavy!!!

    simply beautiful.. helmet on order but a few days



    think i get my motobike in 10-12 days. theres a race track having race days in a month or two, over till end of summer!! so i cant wait to learn and ride then race on the track!!! wish me luck!!

    i think a good 50% of the time, i wont be wearing the pants. and depending on his the shoes are with jeans and if im going clubbing or somthing i wont wear the shoes..

    the motobike has 0 storage space i think.. the jacket is good because its a nice black leather with a little white on it, so i can wear it casual with only a t shirt underneath and be warm in the coldest of temperture rideing let alone on the street

    amature racing in my car would be far too expensive to give the car even the minor upgrades it needs before its ready for the track, even against other street cars, and maintenance on a car being thrashed is another story, i really hopefully will be into racing by the summer, and getting expirence on the track somtime in march.

    I know you crotch rocket guys like your sporty pant look...but seroiusly a good pair of chaps never fail you. They protect and they come off and on veyr easily and quickly and can be stashed in most saddle bags when not in use (or backpack if your righting a rocket)

    The gear you have looks great, and I LOVE that helmet.

    Riding in leather can get warm, but I find that opening the vents on them works great.

    I prefer riding in leather. I find that I stick to the bike's seat and have better grip on the handlebars/clips ons than bare hands.

    BTW, your mom rocks!

    All my mom did was bitch at me about getting a bike.

    I like the helmet a lot bro. Riding in leather really provides quite a bit more peace of mind for me, even though crashing into something in leather or not you will still break bones. At least you are avoiding road rash though.

    You dont wanna be eating tarmac without leathers trust me, I was driving behind a guy doing 50mph one time, he hit a cats eye and lost control. I stopped to help him, his kneecap was exposed I could see the bone he was wearing jeans. Better to have a sweaty arse than no kneecap.

    Dont say youre not gonna fall off because everyone falls off.
