  Alpinestars T-SPS Air V2 Waterproof

  Hi everyone, I recently bought the Alpinestars T-SPS Air V2 jacket after entering my measurements on the official Alpinestars website. I entered around seven measurements, if I remember correctly, and the recommended size was M (Medium), so that’s the size I ordered. I usually wear size M in T-shirts and long-sleeved shirts. I’ve attached some photos showing how the jacket fits me. For reference, I’m 1.76 m tall and weigh 75 kg. The jacket doesn’t feel tight around my body or arms, but the front seems a little short.

  Took pictures of riders at the last trackday of the season!

  This September 27 was the last trackday of the season so I decided to go and check out the dudes in their leather suits! 😋 Since it was the last trackday in six months, I decided to try out panning shots for the first time to get a sense of motion in the pictures and they turned out pretty well. I'm sure Adobe Lightroom could help improve the lighting in some of these pics but I'll try to another time.

  Do I have this tailbag secured well enough?

  Wildheart PVC500D 40L bag. Never ridden with a tailbag before. I have the front bag straps looped through the passenger pegs on each side, and the back straps looped through the license plate arm. It feels secure but I want to make sure. Also the extra bit of the straps are twisted around the secured bit of the strap and Velcroed to it. I'm just worried about the straps coming loose and getting caught in the wheel while riding. submitted by /u/MasterFondler69 [link] [comments]

  [Rant] Lousy distributor

  Annoyed at SHOEI distributor in SEA for changing this X15 helmet design from Estrella Galicia to this. Really stupid rule. I don’t feel the need to chug beer when I see the Estrella logo; the same way I don’t feel the need for a puff when seeing old tobacco logo on F1 cars. Now my only options are to pay extra to ship from overseas (many OOS) or to holiday in Japan and buy there. Anyone else have other idea? Stupid stupid stupid rule. Rant over. submitted by /u/899panigale [link] [comments]

  Opinions

  Local store here. Getting a sale price on each item, how do you guys feel about this gear. A substitute for each item: Gloves: Five SF1 Evo OR AlpineStars SMX Jacket: Revit Argon 3 (Leather) Pants: No other I’m going to stick with these jeans. Shoes: AlpineStars SMX-6 V3 (Might make all this out of my budget) EDIT This is in Canada so the prices are in CAD 🇨🇦 submitted by /u/CaptainnUnderpantss [link] [comments]

  Is there a motorcycle helmet brand that's generally considered the best budget brand?

  Long story short I'm starting to look into getting a motorcycle helmet for my e-bike. Doing more street riding at higher speeds than I'm capable of on a regular bike. So I've been looking into motorcycle helmets and am being overwhelmed with choice. submitted by /u/psycospaz [link] [comments]

  Indie ridge boots posh mark

  I just got in my second pair of indie ridge boots and couldn’t be happier. I had the vented ones but as it’s getting cold, I got the waterproof ones now. I already knew my size and knew they sell their returned boots at $50 off on Poshmark so decided to order from there and it’s a win/win. I got a 1/4 off and they got a sale. Just letting yall know submitted by /u/stawpitbroimcrying [link] [comments]
