  1. Thanks for the help so far guys. I have finally narrowed down a helmet choice to three that have good safety ratings and in my price range. I have an idea on sizes that I need, wondering if anyone has the helmets below or has experience of them so I can pick the one helmet. So the contenders are HJC IS17 http://www.getgeared.co.uk/hjc-is17-lank-helmet-black-red?sc=12&category=108" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Shark Skwal or Shark vision r series 2 http://www.firecrestmoto.co.uk/shark-skwal-switch-rider.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; http://www.sportsbikeshop.co.uk/motorcycle_parts/content_prod/194262" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; AGV K5 http://www.formotorbikes.com/agv-k5-hero-matte-black-yellow" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Thanks for any help guys.
  2. Thanks for the advice guys I have looked into rst gear a lot more and checked sizes so now proud owner of my first set of bike clothes. Now for the helmet to finish off the look
  3. Thanks guys Yeah had a good look around the bike shops around me and trying everything I can on to check all the fits. So luckily know most of my sizes in different makes of helmets. So hopefully find a good one. Got another question regarding life spans of helmets does the 5 years start from day of manufacture or does it start from the day you wear it from? As I have spotted a helmet that fits me well with £200 off the ticket price but it's the old style of shark helmet that they produced from 2011. So just ensuring this is a good purchase or will just grab a helmet from this year.
  4. Hi everyone. I am new to motorbikes and looking for some extra advice on some gear I have spotted and a helmet. I have read all the information on here and it is great and have used it to gain information on the correct fit of gear and helmet to make sure they fit well before taking the plunge. I have spotted a shark race r helmet which after a little digging have noticed it is discontinued, the helmet comes new in box with tags. So firstly is it true that the 5 year lifespan starts the moment it is worn? Secondly if this is not correct and it's better to search for another helemt, what would be a good alternative for around £200. Also looking for a rating of people that have experience of three rst line of gear been looking at the rst CPXC jacket. Also the trousers to match so they fit together easily. https://www.jsaccessories.co.uk/buy/RST-1722-CPXC-Sport-Mtex-Jacket/20620.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; I would be using the bike for commuting hence the reason behind textile. Or if there are better alternatives u am open to any advice. Thanks in advance
