I need motorbike trousers that are safe but suit a Ducati Monster!? |
Ok, i have recently purchased a lovely shiny red n white Ducati monster s2r. i have the Ducati dainese leather jacket with full armour, i have a dainese back protector, im probably looking at either sidi or oxtar boots of some description but where i'd like ideas is in the trousers dept (or so to speak) Im looking for some trousers that have knee protectors and any other additional protection but arnt the really tight fitting leather race type ones with knee sliders etc........does anybody make a decent cargo style or looser fitting lether trouser with ce armour? do i need leather? i have looked at these alpinestar ones (follow link) http://www.cusworths.co.uk/shop/product.... I know its about safety and not fashion but i just dont like the tight racey look of majority leather trousers ive seen so far and they dont look right with the style of my bike, i just wanted some trousers that look normal fitting with armour in black or khaki,,,,ideas????? if there not fairly tight there will be no protection. the trousers will slide around if you take a fall. make sure that when you zip close round the ankles that the trousers either tuck into your boots or the boots fit under them. Icon make a range of trousers that are exactly what you are looking for. Home page - http://www.rideicon.com/ U.K dealer - http://www.ultimatebikegear.co.uk/... http://www.hein-gericke.com/uk/... Have rack upon rack of good gear I have "badass" denim jeans with kevlar lining when riding in summer but I do ride a Harley and not very fast but never the less the tarmac gets down to the bone very fast even at slow speeds I generally wear a "Goretex" jacket and trousers but once again on a Ducati this would not look the part Maybe I am just an ole fart Try draggin jeans, they look like normal jeans with kevlar protection in them.Look good and if you go anywhere you won't stand out like a member of the village people. I'm getting a pair for my birthday ready for the summer. http://www.dragginjeans.com.au/... I think as a Ducati rider these will be right up your street.... http://www.mr-s-leather.com/cgi-bin/mr-s... |
