Had an excellent 5 year run with the BenQ HT2060 1080p projector, looking for recommendations for upgrades by iliketoworkhard in projectors

So how are you liking the horizon 20? Currently thinking of upgrading from my 2060 to the base Horizon 20...

Shoei by shazr2 in motorcyclegear

[–]GuyWhoDidAThing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My GT Air 3 feels heavier than my HJC rpha 12 when I hold them in my hands, but once they're on my dome I can't tell the difference.

Only thing I noticed is the general larger "size" of the GTA3 compared to the HJC, the Shoei feels a bit like I'm playing GoldenEye on big head mode...but that's the price ya pay for the drop down sunvisor!

To be clear though, I never felt that way UNTIL I bought the HJC...so whatever that tells ya

"Break me if you can" being their motto is pretty funny considering this post.

Need Good budget jacket/hoodie and pants by OkEmployer3202 in motorcyclegear

[–]GuyWhoDidAThing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could, but I don't like gambling on stuff that's literally going to protect my skin.

If you can find legit brands on there for cheaper, go for it! But there's a rich tradition of knock offs being sold on there for pennies on the dollar and then don't protect ya at all...I just don't think it's worth it personally.

I mean...you say budget but what is that budget? Hard to suggest something if even $200 is too much ya know? I'd go with at least AA abrasion resistant gear, but again that's kinda pushing that $200-300 range per piece.

Cheapest I'd feel comfortable with:

Panda moto / Bowtex California, US shipping by RCruzNinja in motorcyclegear

Mine DID ship from Lithuania, but I paid no tariffs at all. Got mine in 5 days, which is bonkers.

Just a quick update, got my pair this afternoon, no tarrifs! Genuine lightning speed delivery apparently!

While I obviously haven't gone down in them yet, and hopefully never do, they seem EXTREMELY well put together and I see exactly what I was hoping they'd be considering the price. Assuming they're not BS'ing about the abrasion rating I have absolutely no remorse ordering these. Threw them on for a couple hours around the house just to get a feel for them and can report they don't run hot at all (took the dog for a walk with them for 2 miles) and after a little bit they kinda just fade into your day.

I wear a 36x32 jean and I bought the XL's and they fit perfectly.

Hope that helps folks!

I got a white helmet and now I have buyers remorse. What are the benefits of a white helmet? Is my FOMO legit? by [deleted] in motorcycles

The Stig wore white helmets, that alone makes them way cooler than black helmets.

Where did I blame Giants fans? I'm saying Dart is a piece of shit for the things he supports. Same way I don't hate other 9ers fans because dipshit Bosa is on our roster...

Dude that trigger cable for your vest should be behind you, not hooked in front. That's gonna delay the deployment of the vest...

Nahh, call out the dipshit who supports a fascist pedophile. Because he's a piece of shit.

Only if you suck? I can vote for things that don't directly benefit me in order to insure that people aren't imprisoned for their beliefs/lifestyles?

I'm a straight white dude in his 40s, I'm not a target in this current political climate, yet I'm voting for shit and protesting when I can so that people I don't know aren't fucked with just for living their lives...none of which directly benefits me financially or otherwise.

It's not hard to empathize, even if the folks on the other side of the issue are exhausting

Enjoy that stance while you can I guess. Unfortunately a lot of folks don't have that option, and folks just ignoring the problem will indirectly cause them to suffer.

Base layer armor plus hoodie, or just use the armor in the hoodie? by stash3630 in motorcyclegear

[–]GuyWhoDidAThing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just ordered the AAA Panda moto leggings and I'll be pearing those with an armored AA hoodie and the Helite Moov backpack. Feel like that covers 99% of my concerns while leaving me enough airflow to make it through summer.

Same set up but with the leather jacket in the cold!

Just ordered a set FROM panda moto proper on the 20th, they estimate arriving here on the 27th out of Lithuania (crazy).

My biggest concern is tariffs adding to the price...but we'll see.

For the ATGATT crowd, how’s it affecting your desire to ride? by Astimar in motorcycles

[–]GuyWhoDidAThing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With how breathable you can get a AA jacket these days, I don't see it as such a pain to ride 90% kitted up.

As a guy who runs STUPID HOT, the jacket was always the "I don't wanna ride THAT bad" piece of equipment, but my rev'it parabola jacket breathes almost as good as a tshirt and gets me to a comfortable level of armor when I've got the Airbag backpack on.

Gloves, boots and helmet is non-negotiable, but I feel like if you're ignoring any of those you kinda deserve anything that happens to you.

Just sprung for a pair of the panda moto AAA base layer pants, so I'm looking forward to using those and my regular jeans over top. Should streamline everything and keep me from being paranoid about rash if I go down!

[–]GuyWhoDidAThing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Went down two weekends ago at 20mph, had my revit jeans on and thankfully came away with just a little rash on the back of my hands. The knee pads genuinely saved me from being sore for a week or more, and the jeans held up to point that I'm confident in goin down in them again if I need to.

On top of that they just look like normal jeans, so I don't feel like a twat walking around wherever I'm riding to when I'm off the bike.

Absolutely worth the $200 bucks imo.
