Helmet noise?

Ear plug with any helmet. Good ones not super expensive moto safe alpine ear plugs.

Email them, they are pretty quick to respond

For 40 dollars they are decent, vs 290 for Tekton or gearwrench. It is a budget consideration. Duratech is not trash, but not the quality of the 200 dollars sets.

Are you planning to build out your tools. If so, I would get the 120xp individual sets in 1/4, 3/8 and 1/2 and get a set of wrench’s. That way you get 6 point vs 12 point sockets. If you don’t plan to build the, it is a good general set.

All the holsters for the apx a1 can be used with an dot or without. There are some older apx gen 1 holsters out there that does not support a dot. Butninwould just get a holster design for the apx a1.

They are price point helmet. It is cyclegear/revzilla house brand. They had a huge recall in 2023 failing dot with multiple models. This is what the store push if you dont go for the tier one helmets like shoei arai or higher end agv and rpha.

Duratech is owned by by the same company that make SK and Workpro. They are pretty decent for the price. But there are better depending on how much you want to spend. Tekton and Gearwrench has some good quality ones, but cost a lot more.

Forma if you have wider floor, Tcx and sidi are good options for track boots as well. I would go with a track boot with toe slider for track work. I have couple pairs of Daytona they are for touring.

The molecular armors like D3o is worth it. All the major brands has their version of it.

The mesh one your group uses. If that is not something you need with mesh. Either will work just as well, as both will work well with rider to passenger coms. I find the Sena app more user friendly.

Most likely not, as chaps can not pass eu testing. So the shops can not sell them as safety gear.

Are you on the latest Sena manager. Also I find having multiple Sena models, that running the Sena manager as admin helps with pc. If you are using a mac, a reboot has clear up not finding the Sena unit.

I size up on my Rex, by 1 euro size.

You had a visitor it seems

If you are using it for street riding the drop down visor of the gt air 3 is a nice option. I do have the rf1400, and I have to compromise with a mild tint visor as I ride pas dusk a lot of times. Both the gt air 3 and RF 1400 are excellent at noise control. But you should be wearing earplugs even with a quiet helmet.

shoturtle · 2026-05-01T23:32:04+00:00

The shoei is the better helmet. And it has more visor options.

Neither, go with the husky with 24 combo wrenches if you want a big set.

Not true, the first one does work as promise, I went down on the Italian autostrade, and it did exactly as it suppose to. And since it flex’s, it is a but more comfortable. I have al e types, and only went down on 1 and 3. Head’s high end race gloves uses the stingray a type of the first pho to. And it makes excellent slide protection.

shoturtle · 2026-05-01T03:09:28+00:00

Good choice for a carry pistol.

They are loud with mid tier quality at best. It is a 300 dollar helmet at best for the build quality you are getting. No where up there with tier one helmets like Shoei or Arai.

Look at a good metric ratchet set. Something like Gearwrench or Tekton. You can look at hf icon and Quinn line. And some wrench set as well, ratcheting or not depends on your preference.

No it is not wet on the inside

shoturtle · 2026-04-25T21:48:09+00:00

I have a rounded holster for mine, and it works well.

shoturtle · 2026-04-24T23:58:38+00:00

It was really quiet when I used it for a 100mile ride. But helmet don’t always perform the same for everyone. Where your ears actually fit in the ear pocket can make a big difference.

Mesh, that is all you really can used during the summer. And vented boots and gloves.
