hi lads i just got my full das test last week and im looking to start buying some gear ie helmet and clothes like kevlar jeans and jackets. ill not be buying a bike until the summer at the earliest as im trying to save for a house but i would like to start picking up bits and pieces for when i eventually get my bike which will hopefully be a street triple r.

so which online retailers do yous recommend?

Sports bike shop pretty much exclusively. Good prices, good customer service and free returns.

Buy your helmet in store, or at least try them on and get the right size.

Most of my riding gear I've bought in store, a lot of shops will do a bit of a discount if you're a regular.

Make sure the helmet is tighter than a virgin... it'll loosen up over time, so you don't want a loose one from the start.
