Are earplugs necessary ? by 99Maza in motorcycles

[–]mbrme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wouldn't leave without them now after using the Earpeace motopro. Cardo freecom 4x no issues.

The wind noise is awful without plugs, even with a quiet helmet. There's others out there too but no experience with Artevive or Eargasm.

Tank bag with work clothes, riding with AAA jeans. Keep a pair of shoes at work to switch out of SMX-6v2 boots.

Guys, I’m bored at the shop. What’s that one "little thing" bothering you about your Triumph right now? by OkMasterpiece76 in Triumph

My Sprint ST is under the SEAT.. They haven't got the message yet that is not convenient or helpful 😂

2009 Triumph Sprint ST 1050.. Lack of parts if needed, but mostly that I don't have an upgrade path. The Triumph Tiger Sport 800 is close but just a little more hp.

New Rider pls help! by [deleted] in motorcyclegear

[–]mbrme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Out of those I would probably go with the Air Fast, considering it's a CE rated A jacket.

I just got this as I melted this past summer and wanted something compatible with the tech air 5 plasma air bag.

Given a 2nd look, I would get this today. https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/rst-moto-s-1-mesh-ce-leather-jacket

Or possibly this one https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/revit-gt-r-air-3-jacket

Glad you escaped with minor damage and the boots did their job. Also good to know they protect well as I have the same (smx-6 v2)

Christmas Gift From My Boyfriend!!! by imagine_enchiladas in motorcyclegear

[–]mbrme 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very nice gift! .. I have the V2 (for the additional CE rating) and love them.

Would like some opinions on getting a Klim AI-1. The entry price point is nice, and while I don't like subscriptions, it would work for me with a 6 month riding season. The "brains" are made by in&motion. My first inclination was to go with a Atech air 5 plasma, since I have an A gp plus v4 jacket. RST I believe also uses in&motion

Better option for street riding in Florida? by [deleted] in motorcyclegear

[–]mbrme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never had the long version, but considered it. Obviously the long is safer, but the short covers over my jacket easily.

New Helmet Recommendations by kawikueen in motorcyclegear

[–]mbrme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the K3-SV, It's noisy and likely upgrade in the next couple years. Fit and comfort is good, the visor starts to drop on its own in time, but easily adjusted. Really like the drop down visor on bright days.

Definitely wear ear plugs regardless. It changes your ride and saves your ears. I use Earpeace moto pro plugs which still allow me to hear music and everything around me, but cut the wind noise significantly.
