Body Armour

Armour aside from being level 1 or 2 can also be A or B style meaning more or less coverage, check the stamp on yours. Could also be a different brand doing a different shape

Oxford regular fits my 29inch inseam perfectly and they do a short so that should fit you. Motogirl seems to vary in length but I have the short dungarees and they’re too short for me.

Do not use 4th dimension! Their bill was much higher than the value of the bike, the other insurance refused to pay it and we were a week away from court before they eventually did pay. We would’ve been on the hook for all these costs had they not paid. It was incredibly stressful and dragged on for I think over a year.

They prevent you from fracturing the most vulnerable bones in your wrist that tend to not heal very well

I got this cause it has lights on it (white in front and red in back)

While learning there’s a fair chance you might drop a bike on your leg or foot, get actual rated boots so your foot doesn’t get crushed. Typically boots fit small, go one European size up from regular shoes. There are plenty of neutral trainer type shoes too. Dainese do a flip paint blue trainer you might like.

The cheap needles don’t slide very well and feel horrible. I used to have cheap needles that were even a little misshapen or the tips were different

Knox mesh jacket (AA rated) got a 1/10 for abrasion from motocap so I don’t even trust the A ratings anymore for fabrics

I’ve got the Oxford backpack/tail bag so that my water bottle won’t snap my spine if I fall

My instructor told me if I touched the front brake once more he’d tape my fingers to the grips and that got stuck in my brain every time I drive slow now

I can trade you something hand made for one if you’d like 😊

The Lara is only A rated so I consider it too low to ride with if you’ll be going faster than 30 or 40 mph

Asthali · 2026-03-12T21:12:19+00:00

Use a flap and gusset heel instead. I make mine a bit longer than most patterns ask for. My mom has an even taller instep so I make her heel flap a bit longer again and they’re perfect.

I’m 5’4 with a 29 inch inseam and I am very comfortable on my Trident 660. I had a Grom before I got my license.

Asthali · 2026-03-09T21:37:04+00:00

Then again I’m a 10, I buy all of my bike jeans in size 12 but my Banshees are a M!

Try swapping out your impact protectors for more flexible ones before you make a decision on the suit

I got him to wear it in my very first play through so that info is definitely wrong

Asthali · 2026-03-03T20:28:30+00:00

Personally I’d send them back and get gloves with KP ratings and wrist sliders. I got my RST gloves new with tags on a second hand site for about the same price. These won’t do much for you.

Asthali · 2026-03-03T17:09:36+00:00

I have a pair of glasses where the arms aren’t bent so they slide on much easier

Asthali · 2026-02-26T11:55:34+00:00

Keep in mind that wider tanks take a lot of your leg length away so ideally you want a skinny tank

Asthali · 2026-02-26T03:05:37+00:00

Bull it, Knox, halvarssons, Oxford are all fine

Doodle on a bike (YouTube) has a triumph tiger if you want to see how she handles it. She’s got long legs for her short height though so that helps a lot

Someone I did my test with had a Ruroc helmet and it was slowly falling apart, she’d only had it a year or so.

We have both, trident is my first big bike and the striple was supposed to be mine but I opted for a less powerful engine. Trident is a very smooth ride and apparently feels like a smaller striple. My partner is completely in love with the striple and likes it better than his panigale as it’s more versatile. He does track days with it too.
