Hi guys, been a while since I posted but have now got myself a full time job so I'm pretty busy. I passed my theory test last week (I took both my car and bike one on the same day so I didn't have to go back to the place which is a nightmare to find) and I am booking my CBT and Direct Access course tomorrow. I have ordered my helmet (Shoei XR1100) I tried one on in a shop last year and it was a good fit and very comfortable as far as helmets go so decided that was the helmet for me. I'm looking at different protective gear and was wondering which brands give a better fit for bigger guys like myself, I'm 6'1 40in waist (Although I could probably get away with a 38 now) I really like the look of the Oxford gear, they have some nice jeans and jackets, I would prefer textile (all weather if possible) as I'm not really a fan of tighter clothing like leather jackets and trousers. Is there any brands or particular items you'd recommend? I will be trying jeans and jackets on before I buy them but was wondering if there was anything you guys would recommend
