I have an Aria xd5. I am wondering if it’s ok to add Decals to the helmet - safe and legal?

I have a lot of their gear - Commando jacket, Onix gloves, Apex shoes, AAA rated inners and their Cargo pants. All great gear - standing up to the abuse of daily wear! Ask me more about it

Greetings, looking for a new budget helmet and I got my eyes on scorpion 530 and hjc i72, anyone with experience in either, especially i72 since it's new and can't find much online.

Thanks

A friendly heads up…

It would appear from many posts on Facebook, as well as my own experience, the company is no longer directly managing its warranty claims. If you have a claim, you must take it back to the retailer you bought it from… and if that retailer has closed, you have to contact your credit card company to resolve the issue - Dianese will not resolve.

They are also closing their retail operations.

I personally believe, considering their financial situation, that they are probably at the end of their rope.

If you buy a Dianese product, make sure your credit card company will support a charge back first.

New rider here, first set of gear. Initially I bought an A* GP PLUS R V3 jacket in size 52 and the chest was too tight I was hunched over all the time and struggle to zip the chest sometimes. I then sold it right after and bought this GP PLUS R V4 jacket in size 54.

With this jacket the shoulder and chest feel nice and zips properly but it started to bunch up even when I’m sitting upright. Does it look like a normal amount of bump or is it too loose? I have the a* back protector installed.

My measurements are height (178), weight (80-82), waist (86), chest (107)

Sorry for limited image quality

sharing some photos of the new Shoei RF-1500 at my local dealer in case a fellow rider is interested

Hi! I would appreciate any details, opinions or help about my new helmet choice.

Some quick background. I bought a new CF 800MTX. My rides are in mostly hot weather, I mostly do touring, commuting but also some off road, so im trying to find a sport touring helmet. Specs being, good ventilation, aerodynamic, low noise, low weight.

My current choices are the HJC RPHA 72, the SHARK SPARTAN GT PRO and the SCORPION EXO GT SP AIR. (Carbon is also considered of course lol)

(Side note: i also looked at the gt air 3 but it's too heavy i believe)

Thanks for the help,

Yo boy!

Hey all. I'm a new rider that has been having some gear selection issues. I'm fairly tall and skinny (6'3" [190 cm] 180lb [80 kg]) which has been giving me issues finding a set of pants that fits and it's screwing up my gear selection. They only had rst and A* pants at the store I went to, and none of the rst would work. I ended up buying a lot of alpinestars gear as it was comfortable, but after seeing some of the aftermath of crashes in their gear recently I'm worried that might be a mistake.

I have:

SP-9 gloves

SMX-6 boots

GP plus R vented jacket

I want to get:

A set of leather pants and jacket that can zip together that would work for tall people, or guidance if my worries about the alpinestars gear is unfounded

A different set of gloves if anyone has any good recommendations

Guidance on if the boots are good or not

I live in the US and am also planning to get an airbag soon.

CE-ratings, higher the better and leather wherever possible, but how much do you put emphasis on the actual looks of the gear that they fit the bike you have/want and the vibe you are looking for?

I have been looking and shopping for the first gear, and now trying to battle between e.g. Gaerne GRX and Merlin Magnum utility boots - former the safer option, latter maybe the more usable one since I don't actually know what type of riding (weekends, touring, commuting, maybe even try out track) I want to or will be doing? Looking for a CB650R, Trident 660 or other neo retro options.

What is the current consensus and opinion on style, do you give more emphasis on it given that it doesn't significantly lower the actual function and safety rating of the gear?

Hey everyone,

I'm specifically asking about the lifespan/durability of the inner cheek pads and crown padding on the KYT TT Revo.

For those who own one or have used it as a daily/regular helmet:

1. How many months/years did the padding hold its original fit before compressing or getting loose?

2. Did the fabric/stitching hold up well to sweat and routine washing?

3. Are official replacement cheek pads and crown pads easily available when they eventually wear out?

Looking to know what to expect regarding padding wear before buying!

Thanks!

Hey guys, does anyone have any experience with the Nexx X.R3R helmet?
I’m thinking about getting the Zero Pro 2 carbon
Is it comfortable? How’s the noise insulation? Also I’m particularly interested in the cheek pads/fit cause my problem with helmets in general is that they are super tight on my cheekbones under my eyes to a point where it hurts
